Frequently asked questions

How often will I be out on assignment at the customer's site?

The absolute focus of your work is in our modern production facility in Neustadt an der Orla. On-site assignments at the customer take place occasionally, for example for the final handover, acceptance or maintenance of the machines in Germany and abroad.

I have no experience in the rail sector. Can I still apply?

Yes, absolutely. What matters is your basic technical training, for example as a fitter, mechatronics technician or automotive technician, and your manual skill. We will train you in the specifics of our track-maintenance machines, weighing up to 84 tonnes, step by step and in depth.

How flexible is the holiday planning?

Very flexible. We coordinate easily among colleagues within the team. On top of that, you benefit from the fact that your holiday days increase automatically with your length of service at L&S.
