Job Description

A German group of companies from Saarbrücken, specialising in mining and rock construction, tunnel and gallery building, special underground works (Spezialtiefbau) and drilling. The company carries out driving and reconstruction of galleries, shafts and tunnels, anchoring and shotcreting, blasting and grouting works, piling and anchoring, and securing of excavations and rock slopes. Several lines of activity provide work all year round. About the role: We are looking for experienced all-round miners for underground work: driving and reconstruction of galleries and drifts, support works (steel, concrete, timber), anchoring and shotcreting, grouting and blasting works, installation and removal of equipment, backfilling. This is work for people with real construction experience who can do many things with their hands. Work mode: Mon–Fri, weekends usually free. Trips — max 4 nights away, within ~300 km; accommodation in hotels/apartments paid by the company, travel by company car. Why this employer: • Official employment in Germany and a permanent relocation • Work all year round — no winter layoffs • Saturday and Sunday are usually free • Trips only Monday to Friday (max 4 nights away) and within ~300 km; sites are often close to home • Accommodation on trips — proper hotels or apartments (no construction cabins) • Company car for getting to the site • Friendly team, flat hierarchy with direct access to management • Regular training and upskilling • Equipped common rooms (kitchen, bar, billiards, table football) • High-quality workwear and full head-to-toe equipment • Own large workshop that quickly solves problems on site • On-time pay and real career growth: as your skills grow, so does your salary Important information: • For the first month the company fully pays and arranges accommodation in Saarbrücken (so you can settle in and find your own place — we help); after the first month you pay for housing in Saarbrücken yourself. On trips to remote sites the company pays for accommodation there • Travel to Germany at the start is at the candidate's expense • If you have not worked in Germany before, you need to apply for a tax number (Steuernummer) — this takes at least 3 months; during that period tax is withheld at class 6, and once you have the number the overpayment is refunded • We are looking for people for the long term, ready to relocate permanently; we do not consider those who want to stay only a few months

Requirements

  • Hands-on experience in construction / underground (the main criterion is experience, not a certificate)
  • Readiness for physical work and teamwork
  • Basic German (ideally level B1)
  • A wish to relocate to Germany permanently

What we offer

  • 30 days of paid leave per year
  • Meal per-diem (net, tax paid by the company) when not returning home: €35 (24 h), €21 (14 h), €11 (8 h)
  • Paid travel time to sites
  • Overtime: half of the hours paid monthly, up to 200 h can be saved on a separate account, beyond that — full payout
  • Additional pension: the employer adds 1/3 to your pension fund for underground work
  • Preferential pension: after 300 months of underground service — retirement at 55 with no penalty deductions and a pension about 60% higher
  • Fuel voucher €50/month as a tax-free gift
  • Wellness allowance €156/year (tax-free)
  • Accommodation in Saarbrücken for the first month — fully at the company's expense
