If you live near Kufstein
With the Kufstein location, the WALTER GROUP offers you the opportunity to enter international business so to say from home and to have a career in Europe without relocating. Many LKW WALTER and CONTAINEX employees live in Kufstein and the surrounding regions in the Tiroler Unterland and Bavaria. They appreciate the good connections and short distances to work and leisure activities.
If you appreciate a modern work environment
Peak performances are only sustainable if the conditions are right. This is the case in Kufstein, where the WALTER GROUP offers you a first class working environment. You can expect enough free parking, spacious meeting points with free drinks, open and modern offices, subsidised lunches as well as an in-house lounge.
If you want to live in a safe small town that has everything
Kufstein is a small town that has a surprising amount to offer. For example, a highly varied cultural programme. It ranges from "Kufstein Unlimited", the biggest rock and pop festival in western Austria, to regular concerts in the fortress arena and in the neighbouring Erl, to cabaret, theatre and the Kufstein Operettensommer.
The second largest town in Tyrol, after Innsbruck, is also a wonderful place for shopping and clubbing. In the young and international ambience of the town, you feel the pulse of time. The infrastructure is just as up-to-date. Be it in transport or childcare or health services. Also in terms of further education, Kufstein has numerous schools and a college. And if you're drawn to the big city, it's not far away. Because Munich, Salzburg and Innsbruck are only an hour's drive away from Kufstein.
