Groundworker

Road and highway construction

At OBS Workforce, we like to dig just a little deeper, literally and figuratively. As a groundworker, you are the one who lays the foundation for our projects. You ensure everything runs smoothly, the workplace is safe, and that we don’t face any surprises. Do you enjoy working outdoors, taking a hands-on approach, and getting your feet in the mud? Then you’re in the right place at OBS Workforce.

About this position

As a groundworker at OBS Workforce, you are our specialist ‘from the ground up’. You carry out excavation work (with a shovel or your sharp insight), lay cables and pipes like a budding network guru, and support the operators so they don’t get “tangled up”. Together, you ensure that projects run smoothly and that everything is installed neatly, safely, and according to plan. Thanks to your efforts, every project is solid as a rock—or at least firmly rooted in the ground.
