About the job

From 1 November 2026 or by arrangement, we are looking for you as

HVAC Service Technician / Caretaker (80-100%)

We are a team of 8 technical specialists who jointly manage, maintain and develop the infrastructure (25 buildings, 10 vehicles, various operations) of the Wagerenhof Foundation.

With us, you apply your HVAC expertise where it can have a long-term impact: at a fixed location rather than travelling daily from customer to customer. In addition to professional work in the HVAC field, general caretaking duties are also part of your daily work and provide variety. Your work directly contributes to ensuring that our residents and employees feel comfortable in a functioning and safe environment.

A meaningful task, technical variety and a predictable working day - that is what awaits you with us.

With a needs-oriented range of residential and care places as well as various day and leisure activities, we promote the quality of life, participation and self-determination of our residents.

For employees with diverse backgrounds and expertise, the Wagerenhof Foundation is an attractive employer with versatile development opportunities. For apprentices, Wagerenhof is a competent training partner.

For this, we entrust you with the responsibility:

• Collaboration with external specialists (especially heating, sanitary, air conditioning, ventilation, electrical etc.)
• Taking on on-call duties on site (evenings, weekends) and via on-call mobile phone at night in rotation with the 8 team colleagues

What you bring:

• Respectful interaction with people with disabilities and employees with support needs
• All-rounder in the craft sector
• Good knowledge of IT applications and building automation

What makes us the place for your work:

• Modern, interesting, versatile HVAC infrastructure
