We are hiring
Our machines go all over the world.
They are built here.
In Bad Zwischenahn, by a team in which everyone knows everyone. If you want to see what you have built: at the end it stands in the hall, and you can touch it.
Who we are

We plan, design and build customised plants and individual machines for the food industry. With 45 years of experience and a strong focus on individual advice.
With us you will find a family atmosphere with modern structures – and a company culture that takes your work-life balance seriously. It matters to us that you feel at home and have enough time for yourself and your interests.

Eight things that are in your contract.
Permanent employment contract
No chain of fixed-term contracts, no fixed-term trial period.
Holiday and Christmas bonus
On top of your monthly salary.
30 days’ holiday
Plenty of time for yourself and your interests.
Company pension scheme
We contribute towards your retirement.
E-bike leasing
Your bike through the company, for private use too.

Prefer to learn first
Two ways to get started
Metalwork apprenticeship
Metalworker specialising in mechanical engineering, with an internship to try it out first.
About the apprenticeship
Dual study programme in mechanical engineering
Bachelor’s degree in Hannover, Wilhelmshaven or Osnabrück, practical work with us in the company.
About the dual study programmeBefore you get in touch
Four questions we are often asked.
No. Your name, contact details and the position are enough for the first step – it takes about two minutes.
You can attach your CV and certificates straight away or send them later. Everything else we clarify in person, usually by phone or during a tour of the workshop.
Yes, with a short internship. We agree on how long and when individually.
The easiest way is to call +49 4403 62245-0. We will show you our plant, and you will see what you will actually work on during your apprenticeship.
EIMA covers the tuition and semester fees in full. In addition, you receive a salary for the entire 3.5-year duration of your studies.
We also provide training materials, tools and workwear. In Hannover and Osnabrück the semester public transport ticket is included in the fee; for Wilhelmshaven we will find a solution for commuting.
Yes, if you bring practical skills and an interest in technology. Special machine building is learnt at the machine anyway, not in a seminar.
More important than your CV are welding skills (MIG, MAG, arc welding), confidence in reading technical drawings and a willingness to work in a team. Send us a speculative application – we are always looking for people for production, assembly and design.
Questions first
The best thing is to just give us a call.
Or simply send us an informal email.
Next step
Two minutes for your application.
We will sort out the rest in person – usually on the phone or during a tour of the hall. No essay-length cover letter needed.
