The Many Faces of a Large Construction Site

Let's dive into the adventure of a major project!

What do large construction sites have in common with a wild jungle? Both can seem loud, confusing and huge at first. But if you take a closer look, you will see structure, dynamism and lots of life. That's exactly how it feels to start a major project: challenging and full of opportunities.

Large construction sites at STRABAG are much more than just XXL construction sites. This is where buildings are created that connect, change and leave an impression. And this is where colleagues from different areas work closely together, as a team with one goal. The result: a place where you grow quickly, both professionally and personally.

In the video, our colleagues explain why they made a conscious decision to work in construction and what makes a large construction site so special for them:

Professions and perspectives

Whether site manager, safety specialist, foreman or project assistant: many perspectives come together on a large construction site. What makes that work so exciting? Every role is important, every experience counts. Our colleagues talk about solidarity, challenges and what it's like to work with people from many different countries. They talk about the joy of being outside, creating something visible and how the construction site team often feels like a second family.

In the videos, they reveal more about their tasks, their motivation and also which animal they would be in a construction site jungle:
