Not every technical challenge can be solved by posting a new job opening

Sometimes the solution doesn't start with hiring more people

The technical job market has been under pressure for quite some time. Job openings remain unfilled for longer periods, projects are experiencing delays, and the pressure on existing teams is increasing. Many companies are experiencing firsthand on a daily basis just how difficult it is to find experienced technical professionals.

At BergWerk, we see this challenge up close. But we also believe that the solution doesn’t always lie in searching even harder for people. Sometimes, the greatest gains come from organizing more efficiently, temporarily bringing in additional technical expertise, or restructuring processes.

That is why we have partnered with JeMi-tech in Harderwijk. This engineering firm is run by Jeroen and Michiel, two experienced technical professionals who have more than proven themselves in the field. It’s no coincidence that their first names form the basis of the name JeMi-tech.

With their many years of experience in engineering, manufacturing environments, machine optimization, and process improvement, they bring not only technical expertise but, above all, a practical, hands-on approach.

Together, we help companies not only find the right people, but also solve technical challenges and organize work more efficiently.

More Than Just Filling Job Openings

The reality is that some technical positions remain unfilled for months. In the meantime, work must continue as usual. This often leads to:

• additional pressure on existing teams
• project delays
• postponed improvement initiatives
• missed opportunities for innovation

That is precisely where the partnership between BergWerk and JeMi-tech offers a complementary solution.

In addition to recruitment and selection, secondment, and temporary staffing, we now also offer companies access to practical technical support and process optimization. This ensures that organizations can keep moving forward, even when the job market is challenging.

Technical Support for Businesses in Practice

Jeroen and Michiel assist companies with a wide range of technical issues, such as:

• engineering, technical design, and calculations
• Design and 3D CAD Support
• Optimization of machines and existing systems
• improvement of production processes
• Development of technical ideas or projects that have been put on hold
• development of tools, prototypes, and custom solutions

It doesn't stop at advice alone. From analysis and concept to execution and implementation: we not only contribute ideas but also see them through to completion.

Taking a Smarter Look at Processes and the Division of Labor

In practice, a staffing shortage isn't always just a recruitment issue.
Sometimes, the greatest gains come from organizing processes, roles, and tasks more efficiently.

Together, we'll analyze, among other things:

• how processes can be organized more efficiently
• where unnecessary complexity or waste arises
• how work can be distributed more efficiently within teams
• which tasks can be organized differently so that scarce technical capacity is utilized optimally

The goal is clear: to achieve more with the same number of people, reduce the workload, and decrease reliance on scarce technical staff.

More Effective Recruitment Through Technical Content

Of course, we’ll continue to do what BergWerk does best: connecting people and businesses. Thanks to Jeroen and Michiel’s technical expertise, we can further strengthen our services in this area.

This allows us to:

• Formulate technical job postings with greater precision
• define functions more realistically
• Assessing Resumes and Candidates More Effectively from a Technical Perspective
• further improve the fit between candidates, positions, and organizations

The result: fewer mismatches, better interviews, and more sustainable placements.

The Power of People and Technology

What makes this partnership special is the combination of two worlds. BergWerk brings expertise in people, the labor market, employability, and recruitment.

Jeroen and Michiel from JeMi-tech bring in-depth technical, process-oriented, and practical expertise to the table. Together, we ensure that companies don’t come to a standstill in a tight labor market.

Not just by filling job openings, but above all by contributing ideas for structural solutions.
