We open doors for anyone interested in the world of tech and manufacturing. Whether you’re just starting out, have some passing experience, or simply are open to exploring options, you’ve come to the right place. At EGGER, you will grow into your own.
3 things to know about the biases limiting your options
“I don’t have the strength or stamina.”
Good news: You won’t need either beyond a reasonable level of fitness.
At EGGER, we rely on the latest innovations and ergonomics for workstations in the processes and workflows in and around manufacturing.
Safety is our top priority. That means we all understand physical limits; we know every tool available to us and when to use it; and we flag tasks that need a helping hand or a team effort.
„Rigid shifts will encroach on my personal life.”
In terms of barriers, that’s a definite “it depends”. If you love living life on a whim, shift work may not be for you. But if you like your life structured, shift work can be the way to go.
Our shifts start and end on the dot, and schedules let you plan a full year ahead. A valuable benefit if you need to coordinate schedules for, say, care commitments or quality time with loved ones. And it’s a boon for everyone who simply enjoys personal time inside traditional office hours.
„I have zero tech skills.”
No tech skills? No problem. Tech-related experience in your CV is great, but it's not a must for a role in or related to manufacturing at EGGER.
You may have experience organizing a group, keeping people on track and on schedule. Do you have a keen eye for detail? You like being reliable? All of these are “transferable” skills, and they are valuable to us.
When it comes to tech skills? All you need is enthusiasm to learn; the rest we can teach you.
I actually applied out of curiosity. But in the end, I realized that the job at EGGER was made for me.

Why we love EGGER
A great place to work
Automation makes EGGER more sustainable, productive, and profitable. And it has created a wide variety of interesting jobs, where people work in supportive environments with the highest safety standards.
A great way to grow
From the comprehensive onboarding on day one to tailored training and upskilling offers at all stages of your career, we encourage and support you every step of the way.
A great way to structure your time
At EGGER, we work with a range of shift models to give you maximum reliability and plannability. With schedules fixed a year in advance, you enjoy plenty of freedom to plan ahead for a fulfilling personal life.
I'm more versatile than someone working the day shift. I have free mornings and afternoons, full days off in a row, and that includes weekdays.
Your benefits at EGGER
More fairness
All genders start with the exact same wage or salary. That is non-negotiable. You qualify for increases in pay by upskilling and taking on more responsibility.
More room to grow
You want to know and do more? If you’re in, so are we. Some 90% of people leading people at EGGER grew into their roles through our in-house training and teaching.
More health
“Health” covers a lot of territory. So do we. We invite you to run with us, support gym memberships, offer healthy meals, and protect you with high-quality gear. And once a week, a doctor on-site makes sure you have easy access to care.
More support
From transparency in employee interviews to development counselling to surveys: Support at EGGER starts with understanding where you want to go and ends with us getting you there together.
Just give it a try! Once you can see yourself working in a male-dominated field, it can turn out amazingly well.
About EGGER
Sustainable and fair
We promote the UN’s 17 Sustainable Development Goals. That includes ending discrimination against women, more women in economic life and leadership, and the equal treatment of employees.
Long-term job security
4 out of 10 employees have been with us for over 10 years. And 1 in 4 have been with us for less than 3. It’s a great mix – in our teams, experience meets fresh ideas.
Local roots, global connections
Looking for international work experience? At EGGER, about 12000 people from over 90 countries work together across international borders. They travel, accept field assignments and join rotations that take them abroad. Why not be one of them?
Manufacturing is what we do
4 in 5 of our people work in roles in or related to manufacturing. That’s our core business but it also means we have the experience, support structure and insight into what people working in this field need to thrive.
Open to new opportunities?
Stepping into a new space may need a little courage. Why not cooperate and navigate it together? At EGGER, cooperation works because everyone has their own focus and a defined role. We share our unique perspectives and experiences as we work toward milestones. This way of working fosters cohesion. And cohesion makes the people in our teams better and stronger.
Answers to your questions
Does EGGER have an induction program for new employees?
Our step-by-step process prepares you for your new role and responsibilities. It’s designed to help you settle in quickly and smoothly.
On your first day, you will meet the team and learn more about our company and operations.
In your first weeks, we will introduce you to general, company-specific, and specialist topics. You will sit down with your line manager or supervisor for a feedback meeting.
A colleague from your department will be your “buddy.” They will show you around and provide advice and support.
“On my first day at work, everyone was a little awkward because this was the first time, for them and for me, that there was a woman on an all-male team. [But] I felt super comfortable from the very start. Whatever I work on – the guys support me in every way.”
Tünde Jakab, Machine Operator, EGGER St. Johann
