  • Master-craftsman businesses with company van, training and master's funding
  • On request: businesses looking for a successor

Industry

  • Automotive, mechanical engineering, chemicals, energy
  • Shift models and allowances on the table before the interview

The urw2 welcome package

A move is more than a new job

That's why we negotiate a welcome package with every employer before your first interview. What's included is in the offer – not in the small print.

These building blocks are our standard; each offer shows which ones the employer covers.

Housing
Flat hunting on site, deposit and relocation allowance paid by the employer
Family
Childcare and school places, job search for your partner
Paperwork
Qualification recognition, registration, tax class – we know the forms
Start
Commute or trial-living phase before you move for good
Network
Meet others who made the same move – in your new city
