Automotive Specialist EFZ - Commercial Vehicles Division

Passion instead of standard. With us, you don't wrench on an assembly line, but on what moves the region: trucks, vans, construction machinery. Every day a different vehicle, a different task – and a team that shows you how it's done.

For over 100 years, Gebr. Knecht AG has been a reliable partner in terms of commercial vehicles, construction machinery, bodywork, and lettering. Owner-managed, family-like, at four locations in Switzerland and since 2024 part of the Thomann Nutzfahrzeug Gruppe with a total of nine locations in all of German-speaking Switzerland.

🤔 Why us – and not another company?

100 years old, but no standstill: We are not an anonymous large corporation, but an owner-managed family business – decisions are made here, not somewhere in a headquarters

Versatility instead of a one-way street: Commercial vehicles, construction machinery, bodywork – with us you get to know more than just one vehicle category

Development is lived: As an Automobil-Fachmann/-frau, you are not "finished learning" with us – we specifically promote you towards mechatronics or specialist areas

A team that stays: Our long-standing employees speak for themselves – short decision-making paths and a family-like atmosphere are not just clichés with us

More than a job: Through the Knecht-Gruppe, paths to other Thomann companies, Eurobus, Welti-Furrer, and other sister companies are open to you, if you want to reorient yourself later
