• Processes and advice: advising management on employment law, retention, and personnel metrics; keeping personnel processes lean

What we are looking for

• Eidg. Fachausweis in Personalwesen or equivalent, with several years as a generalist
• Solid command of Swiss payroll, social insurance, and employment law
