People on the construction stand together

STRABAG is the ideal employer for people who want to work for progress rather than waiting for it. For those who relish new challenges every day, have creative ideas to offer, who think ahead and take action. For people who are open to change and the digital transformation, and are committed to working in teams. Equal opportunity, diversity and inclusion are an integral part of who we are as a company and how we operate. Together we work as partners to complete projects successfully and grow with new challenges. We are looking for people who will work with us to develop the future of construction. Are you ready?

Building the future: Together for a sustainable future

We aim to become the most innovative and sustainable construction technology group in Europe.

With our vision of rethinking tomorrow's construction, we have clearly formulated our goal and have already initiated the change: We will become climate neutral by 2040 throughout  the entire value chain. To achieve this goal, we will re-evaluate, rethink and make the necessary changes across the business. But that's not enough for us, we want to do more. This is exactly where our Strategy 2030 comes in.

This strategy sets out how we will make our vision a reality in the coming years. As an established construction technology group, we have a clear leadership ambition: we want to be profitable and at the same time create added value for people and our environment. After all, successful and sustainable business means not just looking one-dimensionally into the future. Together we want to achieve more:

But we will not achieve this goal overnight. It is a process that requires technologies, some of which we first have to develop - and are already doing. It requires completely new ways of working that conserve resources and make us less dependent on fossil fuels. It needs all of us to walk this path together from now on.

Individual development: Your blueprint for a sustainable career

Learning is a lifelong process, both in personal development and in the work environment. And we encourage this process.

According to your competencies and personality, we offer you various development and training opportunities. We aim to ensure that you have all the necessary capabilities and skills that will be relevant both for the company and for your professional career.

Career model

At STRABAG there is more than just one career path. We offer you numerous opportunities to lay the foundation for a successful career and to drive progress as part of a strong team.

Our career model offers you the opportunity to develop in three different career paths:

Employees performance review

STRABAG is characterised by a dynamic corporate culture. In our activities, we ask ourselves the question: "Where are we and where do we want to go?" We pose this question to you, too. Your needs, skills and goals are of course important to us throughout the year. In the annual employees performance review, you discuss these in detail with your manager. You set joint professional goals, discuss strengths and areas for development, and jointly determine how these can be further developed together.

Group Academy

STRABAG has what many construction companies do not have: an in-house academy. Our training program covers both company-specific expertise and knowledge areas such as leadership development, personal development, technology, IT and law. The Group Academy offers employees not only seminars by internal and external experts, but also many digital learning formats for internal training. We also work with partners such as LinkedIn Learning to provide access to over 11,000 video courses. The goal is to support demand-oriented, work-based and self-directed learning and to make it possible at any time. True to the motto "You decide when, where and how you want to learn".

  • My personal career path took me from IT Purchasing to Team Lead to Group Lead for IT Asset Management in 1994. The numerous development and training opportunities as well as the innovative working environment make STRABAG an attractive employer for me.

Individual training

Optimal competences in construction and project planning require optimal training. To prepare you for these tasks, we offer two special training courses. These will give you a solid foundation for your career.

Added value for you: Because you are worth it to us.

We are convinced that every individual at STRABAG makes a contribution to progress.

That is why our employees are our top priority. To ensure that this potential remains effective in the future, we rely on comprehensive measures - starting with safety concepts on construction sites, holistic health management and a wide range of opportunities that create space for future-oriented work.

Health. Safety. Wellbeing.

The people who work for us are our most valuable asset. That is why we have established targeted measures in the areas of prevention and health promotion.

Health in focus

For us, wellbeing describes a forward-looking corporate and People & Culture policy that puts people first and incorporates the issue of health into all operational decisions and processes. After all, the term health encompasses far more than just the absence of physical illness. Ultimately, it is about people as a whole, with both the psychological and social components making a major contribution to health and wellbeing.

Safety at STRABAG

No job is so important that you risk your health or that of your employees or colleagues. In order to make STRABAG safer every day, we 1 ▸ 2 ▸ 3 choose safety!

  • 3 ▸ Act!

    Act responsibly and work safely.

1 ▸ 2 ▸ 3 Choose Safety!

This principle is intended to encourage people to take a moment’s time out and consciously choose the right way to go about their work and focus on safety and health. Whether on the construction site or in the office: It is the seconds before the next work step that decide ...

Increasing gender diversity

The opportunity for individual career development, regardless of gender and gender identity, is a matter of course for us, because it is only through different perspectives and opinions that we are strong enough to master our challenges. In this context, we also want to further increase the reconciliation of parenthood and career, for example through models such as job sharing, home office, part-time and subsidized parental leave.

Enabling generational diversity

The time we work in life is increasing and so is the experience that can be passed on. We leverage this potential through our mentoring and coaching programs and cross-generational teams. In this way, we promote the exchange of experience between employees of different generations. Everyone involved benefits from this and has the opportunity to learn new things. We also offer flexible working time models to enable individual working conditions.
