CNC turner vacancies
in Nijmegen.
Nijmegen has an attractive labour market for CNC turners, particularly in manufacturing. FlexHero places you within one working week of approval, with SNF-certified housing in the Rijk van Nijmegen region and company transport to work.
CNC turners make rotationally symmetrical precision parts — from pins to complex shafts. On a Mazak Integrex, Mori NLX or Star sliding-head, you turn steel, stainless steel or aluminium into precision parts that hold tolerances down to 5 µm. In Nijmegen you are close to manufacturing, semicon (NXP), food and logistics. FlexHero places skilled workers here every day — mainly from other EU countries — with housing in the region and transport to the workplace.
