We are seeking a Technical Lead to complement our Inclusive Economic & Systems Development team in managing the operational responsibility for technical staff providing ATR services, delivering global services for Swisscontact’s internal and external clientele.
Employment start: March 2023
Contract duration: Permanent
Place of work: Zurich, Switzerland / Global
Guided by the strong belief that development should be transformative, all of Swisscontact’s initiatives target the improvement of systems that help poor and disadvantaged people gain – and retain – access to the goods, services, jobs, and incomes needed to improve their lives and reduce their dependency on indefinite development assistance. This is the essence of sustainable development impact which underpins everything we do.
As a learning and sharing organization, we see our work as a joint effort in support of an agile organizational culture that is built on mutual respect, trust, and teamwork. Special emphasis is placed on using harvesting and learning measures to continuously improve our performance and collaboration, and to strengthen Swisscontact’s role as a distinctive shaper and influencer of development policy and practice. In particular, Swisscontact is looking to reinforce our training and coaching services by building on the Making Markets Work for the Poor program, which is returning to Bangkok this year.
We offer attractive working conditions in an international and multicultural context that encourages open feedback and independent thinking, while providing strong internal support and research to drive quality and advance the relevance of our services.
