Job description

Are you an electrician or automation technician with a strong service mindset and ready for adventure in the maritime world?

Right now, you have the opportunity to become part of Hoyer VMS Group, where technology and teamwork go hand in hand, and where you can put your skills into play at a high professional level in maritime environments around the world.

At Hoyer VMS Group, we are looking for someone who not only has the technical skills, but also brings passion and dedication when it comes to service. We believe that talented people create the best solutions, and at Hoyer VMS Group, we do our very best to provide great working conditions for those people!

Your Responsibilities

As an electrician/technician with us, you will have a varied and challenging workday, including tasks such as:

  • Installing, maintaining, and repairing electrical systems on large diesel engines in maritime environments.
  • Troubleshooting and solving complex faults (both mechanical and electrical) on ships and maritime vessels.
  • Working closely with mechanics and technicians in an environment where teamwork and knowledge sharing are essential.
  • Participating in commissioning/start-up of Hoyer VMS Group’s ESS solutions.
  • Condition monitoring of electric motors.
  • Documenting your tasks and contributing to ongoing technical updates.

You should be prepared for approximately 5–10 travel days per month, both domestically and internationally, when assignments require it.

We Imagine That You…
  • Are a qualified electrician, automation technician, newly graduated marine engineer, or have a similar background.
  • Are skilled at troubleshooting and motivated to work with advanced systems such as regulators, engine control systems, and alarms.
  • Have good IT skills and knowledge of MS Office, Teams, and OneDrive.
  • Are fluent in both Danish and English, written and spoken.
  • Thrive working both independently and as part of a team.
  • Are responsible and reliable.

Experience with maritime systems and diesel engines is an advantage, but not a requirement. Your new colleagues will ensure you receive thorough training!

What We Offer
  • A key role in a global company headquartered in Frederikshavn, with service bases in the USA, Brazil, China, and Namibia.
  • A strong team culture with mutual support and an informal working environment.
  • Thorough onboarding and professional sparring with skilled colleagues and managers.
  • Flexibility, attractive employment terms, and salary based on qualifications.
  • A healthy work-life balance. We care about our employees’ wellbeing and occasionally spoil them with delicious surprises and fun events through our own “Ministry of Welfare.”
