About the job
We have a variety of important professions that require specialised knowledge. That is why we rely on people who want to reorient and develop themselves professionally, for example after parental leave. You will receive an attractive salary already during the retraining. At the end of your induction period, you will take on your tasks independently and be a full member of our team.
We offer you a secure workplace, a reliable, supportive team and the opportunity to work outdoors in nature along the railway network – together with you, we will advance the railway!
We are looking for you as soon as possible for a career change as a specialist for construction site safety (m/f/d) at DB Fahrwegdienste GmbH at the locations Karlsruhe or Freiburg im Breisgau.
This is what awaits you during the retraining:
- In about a year, you will learn step by step what you need for this profession
- Theory and practice alternate – so you will be shown everything and can try it out immediately
- Of course, you will be accompanied by experienced colleagues, so the entry also succeeds for those who want to try something completely new
- The theoretical lessons take place as close to your place of residence as possible, the practical assignments mostly take place in your future area of deployment
- You will receive a secure salary from the start
After your retraining, you will take on the following tasks:
- You ensure in a team that no one is harmed at our track construction sites
- Employees in the track area are warned by you with various signals and modern warning systems of approaching trains
- The implementation of safety rules as well as the briefing of new safety posts are part of your daily work
- The exchange with your various contacts ensures a smooth process
- You take responsibility for organising and controlling the safety measures on the construction sites
Your profile:
- You are at least 18 years old and have a secondary school leaving certificate
- Special prior experience is not necessary, but you trust yourself to ensure safety and are reliable
- Fresh air and working outdoors are exactly your thing, regardless of the weather
- You can communicate confidently in German, both spoken and written
- You are flexible – night or weekend work as well as changing locations do not bother you
- A class B driving licence and your own vehicle are desirable but not mandatory
Applications from already trained specialists for construction site safety, safety posts and safety supervisors are of course also welcome.
