Working in Serbia
Serbia is non-EU but has rapidly growing manufacturing investment from German, Chinese and Korean employers, plus a low cost of living. A work permit plus temporary residence is processed in 4 to 6 weeks — among the fastest in Europe. Cost of living is well below EU average; €400-600/month covers daily living for a single worker outside Belgrade. Limited established migrant communities but rapidly growing — most sites provide on-site accommodation and basic Serbian classes.

What this role looks like day-to-day

Days are physical and outdoor; mornings are early. This role suits workers with good general fitness, no fear of heights or open water (depending on site), and the discipline to follow safety procedures every single time.
