Handicraft-skilled individual (m/f/d)
Material Testing and Quality Assurance (80-100%) – Career changers welcome
Your main work is in the laboratory. Assignments outdoors on construction sites and landfills occur as a change on some days per year. We will train you thoroughly step by step.
Your tasks
- Testing in the laboratory: You examine soil and building material samples according to clear procedures – this forms the focus of your activity.
- Evaluation:You evaluate measurement results and document them neatly. Common Excel formulas for calculations are not foreign to you.
- Field service:On some days of the year, you collect samples or take them yourself on site and independently carry out measurements (e.g. at landfills).
- Quality assurance:As an important focus, you actively help shape and maintain our processes as well as the preparation for laboratory accreditation according to ISO/IEC 17025 in the long term.
- Equipment: You conscientiously maintain, service, and calibrate some of our testing and measuring devices.
- Flexible deployment: If needed, you actively assist with general fieldwork in the field service.

Your profile
- Education:Completed vocational training as a building material tester or in a handicraft, technical, or scientific field (e.g. construction, craft, industry, or laboratory).
- Experience and know-how:Ideally, you already have some knowledge of geotechnics or ISO/IEC 17025 – however, this is absolutely not a must for career changers. Working method: You work precisely, reliably, and completely independently. You have a good understanding of numbers and technology.
- PC skills:Confident handling of MS Office, especially good knowledge of Excel (tables and calculations).
- Mobility and fitness: You are physically fit for occasional outdoor assignments, must have a driving licence category B, and be willing to complete the trailer test (category BE, max 3.5 t).
- Language: Very good German skills in spoken and written form.
We offer you
- Thorough induction: Step-by-step introduction including coverage of costs for, for example, the trailer test or the external radiation protection course.
- Focus with variety: A permanent, crisis-proof workplace primarily in the laboratory, complemented by exciting days in the field.
- Participation:The unique opportunity to actively accompany our company and the upcoming laboratory accreditation from the start.
- Great environment: A collegial team and a high degree of personal responsibility.
- Fair conditions: Attractive and modern employment conditions in a stable Swiss company.
Have we piqued your interest? We look forward to your application!
