About the role

Facility Technician*in (all genders)

As a Facility Technician*in, you support the building technology team in carrying out repairs and inspections on our building systems and equipment. With practical craftsmanship and technical understanding, you take on general caretaking tasks and, together with your colleagues, ensure that our building technology runs flawlessly at all times.

Your work is shaped by a motivating team spirit based on appreciation, respect and openness. Together with your team, you work both towards achieving the operational daily goals and towards improving the technical systems. In doing so, you identify with our leadership charter, live our values and use both as a compass in the daily business.

OUR CHARTER

Our vision at Zalando is to be there for everyone. And this vision starts already at recruitment - we welcome applications from people of all gender identities, sexual orientations, personal expressions, ethnic backgrounds, religious beliefs, and with or without disabilities. It is important to us that you fit the role. You are therefore welcome to omit a photo and details on age and marital status from your application.

We want to offer you an excellent applicant experience. Please let us know if we can make arrangements for you, as we want to support you as well as possible throughout the entire application process.

WHY THE ROLE IS EXCITING FOR YOU

  • With your practical craftsmanship, you carry out small repairs on our technical systems and work equipment. You install components, make changes to workstations, and perform operational checks and inspections on technical systems.
  • Act as the point of contact for external companies and accompany external colleagues in their work at our logistics center. Carry out general conversion work at the site and support your team with larger tasks.
  • Keep yourself independently informed about processes and technologies in building technology and continuously develop your technical knowledge and practical skills. Be helpful and ask your team how you can best support them.

WE WANT TO GET TO KNOW YOU IF

  • You have a completed technical training and practical craftsmanship, are physically resilient, and bring basic knowledge in the field of building technology. With these skills and your strong service mindset, you carry out technical assignments in a controlled, reliable and safe manner.
  • You actively help shape your team's success and are an important point of contact. With your communication skills, you convey your expertise in a clear, sustainable way, adapted to the knowledge level of your colleagues.
  • Your good German language skills, spoken and written, make communication in the team easier.

We encourage you to apply even if you do not meet all the requirements. Perhaps you are the right person for this or another position.
