We are looking for a rebar worker–formwork carpenter for a permanent position on new-build projects in the Greater Helsinki area.
The role includes
- Reinforcement work on cast-in-place and precast installation projects according to structural drawings: installing reinforcement mesh and ribbed bars, bar splices, fitting spacers, and checking the reinforcement before the pour.
- Formwork: erecting system formwork and timber formwork, setting out and aligning, bracing the forms, and striking them after the pour.
- Concreting: preparing for the pour and taking part in the casting work together with the crew.
- Other site work as needed, such as moving materials, keeping the site tidy, and assisting with installation work.
- You will work in a crew of 3–6 under a site supervisor. The projects are new builds and change every few months. Sites are located in the Greater Helsinki area: Helsinki, Espoo, Vantaa and the surrounding municipalities.
What we expect from you
- Motivation to do physical outdoor work year-round.
- A willingness to learn and the ability to take instruction from both the supervisor and more experienced colleagues.
- Care and accuracy. In reinforcement and formwork, the measurements are what count, and mistakes show up after the pour.
- A valid Occupational Safety Card (työturvallisuuskortti). If you don't have one yet, it must be obtained before starting work.
- A tax number in the Finnish construction sector tax number register before starting work. We can help you obtain one if needed.
- Good teamwork skills and reliability.
Considered an advantage
- Work experience in reinforcement or formwork. Experience in these is a significant advantage and also affects pay. If you have experience in only one of the two, mention it in your application.
- Training in the construction field, or unfinished studies in the field.
- The ability to read structural drawings.
- Experience with system formwork.
- A driving licence and access to a car, as not all of our sites are well served by public transport.
- A Hot Work Card (tulityökortti) or other safety or competence cards.
- Finnish or English language skills.
