Build your future!

The construction industry

Does construction mean bricklayer or excavator operator to you?

The industry is much more diverse: from commercial and residential construction to road construction and civil engineering to engineering and expansion - there's something for everyone!

In civil engineering, for example, you provide structure and order at ground level or underground. Your specialist knowledge and skills are required for the construction of new roads, railways, tunnels and canals.

Setting off into your future!

Demolition and dismantling sector

When you think of demolition, do you immediately think of the big wrecking ball?

In most cases, however, the demolition of a building is much more complex and requires a wide range of expertise. Here, man and machine work closely together to plan and carry out a systematic demolition and dispose of the resulting materials professionally.

With your knowledge, you will be breaking new ground and already thinking about tomorrow!

Upcycling for your future!

Recycling and waste management

A building has been demolished and what happens to the rubble?

There are recycling routes for many materials generated during demolition, such as mineral waste, waste wood and metals. In this way, new valuable building materials, so-called secondary raw materials, are obtained from old materials.

Your specialist knowledge in the industry actively contributes to the conservation of resources and offers a sustainable solution to the growing scarcity of raw materials on earth.

Construction equipment operator

Construction equipment operators control large machines such as excavators, cranes or rollers. They ensure that everything runs smoothly on the construction site. Technical interest and skill in handling machines are required here.

Road builder

Road builders build and repair roads, sidewalks and squares. They work with asphalt, paving stones and concrete. This requires precision and teamwork - and at the end you can see exactly what you have achieved.

Landscape gardener

Landscape gardeners design gardens, parks and green spaces. They plant trees, lay paths and take care of maintenance. If you like being outdoors, working with plants and want to be creative, this is the right job for you.
