Welcome to Wajer

Wajer builds luxury yachts and delivers them worldwide. Our shipyards in Heeg and Lemmer operate at full capacity, building approximately 65 yachts per year in series. The relationship with our owners truly begins after launch—this is the domain of Wajer Care. With a permanent team of over 130 colleagues, we ensure that owners can sail with peace of mind. Our motto is "Without a worry."

Wajer Care is divided into three segments: Operational Care, Technical Care and Refits. We have a strong presence in France, operating from our location in Saint-Tropez and a large winter storage facility in Port Napoleon. This location near Marseille is expandable to 10,000 square meters. To optimally support the technical teams at our French hub, we are looking for a decisive Parts Coordinator.

About the role

As Parts Coordinator, you are the driving force behind our warehouse at the French service hub. You ensure that technical teams have exactly the right materials. This is the only way they can keep our owners' yachts in absolute top condition.

You receive incoming materials and parts daily. This ranges from heavy engine components to delicate cushion sets. You check every shipment immediately for accuracy and possible damage. If a specific part for a Wajer 44 is missing, you coordinate directly with the co-maker to arrange rapid delivery. You then process everything flawlessly in our inventory management system.

You think ahead. You monitor current inventory levels carefully and signal in good time when we need to reorder specific parts. You place the orders and monitor delivery times. Managing return flows is also part of your responsibilities. You coordinate the shipments of defective or incorrect parts back to the co-makers.

You also take responsibility for further professionalizing the warehouse at the hub. You analyze current flow routes and storage methods. You make processes more efficient and create a logical structure. An organized warehouse saves mechanics valuable time. You ensure that frequently used filters and fluids are always within reach.

Your environment

You work within the Technical Services department at our French hub. This is an international and demanding environment. You work daily with mechanics, project coordinators and external co-makers.

This is a temporary role until 1 April 2027. You are replacing a colleague who is absent due to long-term illness. Your arrival is crucial to ensure continuity in our warehouse.

The dynamics of Wajer Care are strongly seasonal. In winter months the focus is on major maintenance and refits in the workshops. In summer months the yachts are sailing along the coast. Our organization scales up significantly. Around 80 additional colleagues join to handle the summer peak.

During that peak season, a hard-and-fast rule applies for yachts with a hub contract. A request by 19:00 means delivery or resolution the next day. No is simply not an option. This requires excellent logistical preparation. You respond at lightning speed when a mechanic urgently needs a part. At the same time, you stay calm and keep the administration in order.

What you bring

You are extremely structured and work with utmost accuracy. A correct inventory management system is the foundation of good work for you. You understand that a small administrative error can have major consequences for the technical team's planning. You are proactive and don't wait for instructions. You see what needs to happen in the warehouse and act on it immediately.

We would also like to see the following in your profile:

  • You have completed at least an MBO 3 qualification in a technical or logistics field
  • You bring demonstrable experience in parts management, warehouse work or procurement
  • You are administratively strong and enter all data accurately in the systems
  • You communicate clearly and directly with colleagues on the shop floor and with international co-makers
  • Because you work in an international environment, good command of the English language is necessary
  • Knowledge of French is of course a major advantage in this region

What you can expect

We ask a lot of your organizational talent, accuracy and sense of responsibility. You receive a temporary contract until 1 April 2027 to cover your colleague's absence due to illness.
