With us, you can expect diverse and challenging fields of activity, where we always pay attention to health, safety and environmental awareness. We place great importance on you being able to balance your professional and private life. A collegial working atmosphere, fair employment conditions and the promotion of your personal development are a matter of course for us.
You are a professional in handling construction machinery and are looking for a versatile challenge in an exciting environment? Then you are exactly right with us! As one of the most modern cement plants in Switzerland, we rely on people like you who want to achieve great things with passion, skill and team spirit.
WHAT AWAITS YOU:
- Ensure that our construction machinery and equipment are operated, maintained and used efficiently in raw material extraction.
- You actively support the planning, execution and documentation of daily personnel and machine deployment and take on responsibility.
- When things get stuck, you keep a cool head. You independently assist with mechanical malfunctions on our equipment and machines – excavators, dump trucks and wheel loaders – and help to get operations up and running quickly and safely again.
- You lead by example. You consistently ensure strict compliance with our safety, quality and environmental standards and thus contribute to responsible operations.
- You play a key role in the digitalisation of our open-pit mine, evaluate machine characteristic data and fleet management systems, and prepare weekly and monthly reports.
WHAT YOU BRING:
- You have completed a technical or manual vocational training and possess solid practical know-how.
- You are familiar with above-ground or underground rock extraction, understand the material behaviour and recognise process interrelationships thanks to your technical understanding.
- You have several years of sound experience operating large construction machinery and hold licences for categories M2, M3 and M7.
- Team spirit is important to you – you pitch in, remain resilient even in hectic phases and are open to new operational concepts and digital tools. A category B driving licence is required; remote pilot certificates A1/A3 and A2 are desirable.
- You have already gained some leadership experience and communicate fluently in German; English skills are a great advantage.
