YOUR SKILLS IN METALWORK
TIG / MIG-MAG welder – work in the Netherlands
Do you read technical drawings, assemble components and weld with TIG or MIG/MAG? EuroConnexxion is looking for experienced welders for work with our clients in the Netherlands.
Start with your experience. You can apply without a CV.
From a drawing to a finished assembly
What will you do as a welder?
Our clients work on a range of metal products, from formed sheet-metal parts to frames and steel fabrications. These are some of the tasks involved. The exact combination is discussed for each assignment.
Read technical drawings
You use drawings to understand dimensions, connections and the position of each part. You check what needs preparing and raise questions before starting. If you can read weld symbols and work from assembly drawings, tell us about that experience.
Prepare the components
You check dimensions and prepare material for fit-up and welding. This can include deburring, cleaning and preparing the joint. The exact operations depend on the material, the production stage and the work assigned.
Fit, assemble and tack
You position sheet-metal parts or sections, check angles and dimensions, clamp the parts and tack them together. Accurate fit-up matters. You identify and discuss deviations before completing the welds, rather than passing them to the next stage.
Weld using TIG and/or MIG/MAG
You work with the process you know: TIG, MIG/MAG or both. The material, thickness, welding position and quality requirements depend on the assignment. You do not need to be experienced in every process to get in touch.
Sheet metal, frames and fabrications
Assignments may involve sheet-metal components, metal frames, sections and fabricated assemblies for industrial uses. Components for the transport sector may also be relevant. Some work focuses on smaller parts; other assignments involve assembling larger fabrications.
Finish and check your work
After welding, you check dimensions and look for visible defects. Where required, you finish welds and edges using the agreed procedure. You use measuring tools, keep the work area organised and raise any deviations with the responsible colleague.

Your practical skills matter
You know your trade. Tell us how you work.
We are looking for welders with practical experience. Tell us which process you use, how you work from drawings and what you assemble independently. You do not need to know every process or material.
Certificates, language, driving licence and any weld test are discussed for the specific assignment. We do not set a minimum number of years on this page.
Apply for this workPractical welding experience
You have experience with TIG, MIG/MAG or both. Tell us about the materials, thicknesses and welding positions you know. Experience with steel, stainless steel or aluminium helps us discuss suitable work.
Drawing and fabrication skills
You can explain how you prepare, position and tack components from a drawing. Indicate whether you do this independently or with support. We want to understand the tasks you can carry out in practice.
Care with dimensions and finish
You check measurements, connections and the finished result. You know when to move on and when to clarify a deviation before the next stage.
Safe working and teamwork
You follow the arrangements for welding, fume extraction, protective equipment and moving material. You take responsibility for your tasks and work with colleagues when assembling and checking components.
