Electromechanic, 100 %

We are the pulse of Zürich and keep the city moving in 7.5 minute intervals. For this to function reliably and smoothly, a lot happens behind the scenes at VBZ. Our colleagues are deployed in over 50 professions: in technology, IT, administration, transport development, service planning, infrastructure, and many other exciting areas of responsibility. Where we drive, Zürich lives. Join us.

Tasks ##

• Your task is anything but ordinary: As an electromechanic in tram maintenance, you and your colleagues ensure that our trams are moving and stay moving. In a sense, you are moving all of Zürich.
• What does your everyday life look like? You perform maintenance work and fault rectification on rail vehicles, schedule and monitor the arrivals and departures of tram vehicles, or perform emergency and fault services.
• Furthermore, driving service assignments as a tram driver await you - including passenger transport. If that is not an extraordinary task. To be able to do justice to this - after all, you have responsibility for people and vehicles - you will complete two driving aptitude diagnostic tests as well as a medical examination by a company doctor before the initial interview.
• For this, a varied job with interesting career prospects awaits you after an extensive application process. All tasks are carried out in shift work, which is based on an annual plan. This means you already know today how you will be working in 12 months and can plan your private life accordingly. Join us!

Profile ##

• Successfully completed training as an Automatikerin EFZ, Electromechanic, Landmaschinenmechanikerin EFZ, or Maschinenmechanikerin (assembly).
• Driver's license Cat. B for passenger cars (as well as a corresponding vehicle for commuting in shift operation).
• Readiness for location- and time-flexible work.
• Independent way of working as well as customer and team orientation.
• Readiness for shift work (4-shift operation, also on weekends and public holidays).

We offer ##

• The Zürich residents are public transport fans; they appreciate what you do.
• Discover the whole of Switzerland with the free GA - and the family also travels very well thanks to generous discounts.
• We help you stay physically and mentally fit: 250 Franken for continuing education courses of your choice or for your sports subscription.
