You are looking for an interesting, secure job with exciting tasks, good pay as well as adequate chances for promotion? "Sure," you think, "but it takes more than that to make me choose a company and want to work there permanently." This is also shown by current surveys such as those conducted by the employer rating portal "kununu" or the job platform "StepStone". In today's working world, flexible working time models, family-friendliness, training opportunities, health and mobility measures – and increasingly sustainability – play an important role.

Fabasoft recognized this early on and, as a certified "family-friendly employer", offers existing and future employees top jobs and a habitat to feel good and develop, which goes far beyond flexible working hours and home office. Curious? Here you can get an insight into our sustainable working environment.

Organic coffee, Tyrolean meadow hay and an eShuttle service

We rely on state-of-the-art technical equipment and ergonomic workstations including height-adjustable desks with tabletops made of pressed Tyrolean meadow hay. Don't worry, even allergy sufferers will be happy about this (hay-)snuff-free ;-). Health. Definitely. Sustainability. Of course. Especially when it comes to catering – from our communal breakfast to the wide range of coffee, juices, fruit, yogurt and muesli for in-between meals – we pay special attention to regional and organic quality. As part of our welcome package, we give all new colleagues branded water bottles to fill at the BRITA water dispensers. This avoids the use of glass bottles and their transport, and also ensures our physical well-being in a sustainable way. But that's not all: Fabasoft also motivates us to sustainable commuting. For this purpose, free parking lots with e-charging stations and a separate bicycle cellar are available in the company's own underground parking. Team members who take part in the "Linzer Betriebe fahren Rad" ("Linz businesses ride their bikes") campaign receive prizes for their mileage. In addition, one of our favorite benefits provides us with comfort and flexibility: the Climate Ticket, which Fabasoft largely finances, together with the free eShuttle service from Linz Central Station to our headquarters and back, contributes to a relaxed start and end to the working day. This benefits not only the environment, but also the family. And this keyword already brings us to the next topic.

"We really care for experts ... and their families."

The compatibility of work, family and private life is very important to us. On the one hand, this is proven by Fabasoft's award as a family-friendly employer. On the other hand, our home office quota and flexitime model with time off support a good work-life balance. Regular team events such as running events focus on fun, health and sustainability. And above all, family members are welcome to join in movie nights, for example.

When it comes to family friendliness, one particularly popular benefit deserves special mention: "FABIs Kindernest", our company child and summer care facility, located directly at the Fabasoft headquarters in Linz. The opening hours are based on the needs and allow employees to plan ahead and enjoy a high degree of flexibility. High-quality furniture from regional suppliers, wooden play materials and maximum freedom of movement allow children aged one to three years to develop their skills under the playful guidance of qualified teachers from Diakoniewerk Oberösterreich. In a separate blog post, we show you just how much fun the kids have there. To express this in good "Employer Brandish": "We really care for our experts' little ones."

In addition, "FABI's Summer Camp" takes place during the vacation season with a varied program for four- to ten-year-olds. Activities include, for example, games, crafts, painting or a visit from a storyteller and a therapy dog. Highlights, including a robotics workshop, generate enthusiasm and encourage talent at an early stage. This leads us to another crucial criterion when choosing an employer.

"Knowledge is king."

As an attractive employer, Fabasoft sees its responsibility in pushing talent of all ages: From the aforementioned early support as part of the company's child and summer care program to cooperation with various educational institutions such as schools and universities. To this end, Fabasoft has, among other things, set up a "RoboLab" within the company premises, with plenty of space for programming various robots as part of the "Fabasoft Robotics Camp" for beginners and advanced students, which takes place annually during the summer vacations. Together with the association Talente OÖ, Fabasoft thus pursues the aim of giving children or young people access to technology, computer science and programming and to contribute to the further development of highly talented people.

For existing and future team members, our Fabasoft Academy serves as an essential career driver. An extensive training program and participation in conferences specifically help with our individual development and the sustainable realization of our professional goals – and yours, too.

As you can see, at Fabasoft the employer branding slogan "We really care for experts." is the motto. Or as Pippi Longstocking, star of the children's book series by Swedish author Astrid Lindgren, would say: "We see the working world the way we want to." With this in mind, sustainable benefits and attractive jobs are waiting for you – we look forward to receiving your (initiative) application.
