Executive Assistant to the CHRO

Purpose, Perspective and Personality

On behalf of an established, globally operating company based in Central Switzerland, we are exclusively looking for an Executive Assistant who is excited by a role with genuine scope to grow and evolve. Working closely with two senior HR leaders, you will provide high-level support in a demanding day-to-day environment while thinking ahead, connecting the dots and consistently looking beyond the immediate task at hand. You instinctively recognise what is needed, bring structure to complex topics, connect the right information and people and keep an eye on what may not be urgent today, but could become important tomorrow. At the same time, this role offers an exciting development path. You will become increasingly involved in projects, initiatives and substantive topics, gradually taking on responsibilities beyond traditional executive support. The purposeful use of AI and modern digital tools will play an important part in this evolution. We are looking for someone who thinks ahead, brings a business mindset and is excited to actively shape what a modern Executive Assistant role can look like.

  • Prepare presentations, analyses and decision-making materials, and coordinate and follow up on management and committee meetings
  • Coordinate key stakeholders, ensuring a smooth flow of information, clear ownership and consistent follow-through
  • Take ownership of projects and workstreams, with increasing involvement in strategic HR topics and initiatives
  • Actively improve processes and ways of working through the purposeful use of AI and digital tools

Qualification and Experience

  • Several years of experience in a demanding Executive Assistant role with a high degree of autonomy and ownership, ideally within an HR environment, German native and fluent English
  • You are a quick thinker who connects the dots, anticipates what is coming and understands today what may become relevant tomorrow
  • AI is not just a buzzword for you: you already use AI tools actively, identify meaningful use cases and leverage them to make processes smarter and more efficient
  • You are the go-to person who notices what others may miss, reads people and situations quickly and acts as a trusted sounding board who thinks along, challenges constructively and knows when to ask the right question
  • You bring calm confidence when things get hectic, remain pragmatic and solution-oriented and combine strong empathy with a healthy sense of humour
