For a bright future, where we successfully tackle challenges like climate change & the energy transition, skilled blue-collar workers are the backbone of this transition. Millions of solar panels, wind turbines and EV chargers need to be installed. 85% of all buildings need to be refurbished (new energy system, heating, windows, roof, ...). This work is mainly done by skilled blue-collar workers from traditional apprenticeship jobs.
Without these skilled workers, we will not be able to hit our CO2 targets. Already we're facing a massive shortage of skilled blue-collar workers which will get worse over the next years. The older people are dropping out of the workforce, young people rather go to universities. Of course, skilled blue-collar work is not for everyone, but so is university. We need to showcase the awesome careers people can have in skilled blue-collar (we’ve seen 27 years old making over 100k Euro per year as electricians) and support the people in the current workforce to take the next step in their careers.
To make skilled blue-collar work really attractive, we need to shift the power dynamics in the job market toward the workers. We will accomplish this by building an easy-to-use career platform, focused on skilled blue-collar professions.
Our platform will help workers find jobs they love and guide them in their professional journey - from apprenticeship until retirement. In addition, we support the companies that genuinely want to improve with relevant insights and tools to become better employers and sustainably grow their teams.
To make this possible we’ve brought together an enthusiastic team to shape the way of how we can help & better organize one of the most valuable resources we have - talented skilled blue-collar workers. Our team is remote first with one office is in Berlin, Mitte.
