IKEA lists CHF 60'500 - 91'500 gross per year for this position in Aubonne. This is the salary published in the original listing (or, when the employer omits a figure, a realistic estimate for the role and sector) — the calculator on this site converts it to your actual net take-home once cross-border tax and social contributions are applied.

This listing is a full-time position. The contract type shown here comes directly from the employer's original posting; always confirm exact hours, notice period and probation length with IKEA during the application process, since these details can vary by role even within the same contract category.
