We are one of the few recruitment agencies that has been granted a SECO Licence, enabling us to legally recruit for roles in Switzerland, working within the Government’s regulatory, economic and foreign policy framework.
From Couples, House Managers, live-in nanny roles to ski resort chalet hosts, Switzerland provides many once-in-a-lifetime opportunities for our candidates. Our clients - who have always worked with us based on our 25 plus year history and reputation - can now officially say that they are working with a private recruitment agency of the highest calibre.
Our Switzerland branch is represented by Armin Preisig, who has over 20 years’ experience within the recruitment sector, amongst others 6 years on the Board of Management of AEX-listed Vedior N.V., at the time one of the world’s largest staffing companies, operationally responsible for more than 20 countries in Continental Europe.
The talented candidates we place are carefully-selected and have increasingly transferable and sought-after qualifications, skills and experience.
