What's on offer

• Attractive salary package up to 170.000 CHF!

What we're looking for

• 5+ years of experience in a PMO, project governance, or senior project management role, ideally within an international, technology-driven environment
• A relevant certification (PMP, PRINCE2 or IPMA) — genuinely important for this role, not just a nice-to-have
• Bachelor's or Master's degree (or equivalent professional education), ideally in IT, Business Administration or a related field
• Fluent English (C1+); German or other European languages an advantage
• Strong stakeholder management skills, with the confidence to challenge constructively
