PROJECT MANAGER INTERNAL COMMUNICATIONS 100%

Duration: Permanent Start: February 2027

You make communication at IWC the connection motor. As Project Manager Internal Communications, you control communication projects that connect our employees with the topics that move IWC. You ensure that relevant messages are received in an understandable, target group-oriented and effective manner.

Your mission to the IWC.

Your projects

You take responsibility for various internal communication projects from the idea to the implementation, in particular the launch of our new intranet platform, as well as our regular townhalls and engagement events.

You will develop communication concepts and plans for global and local initiatives, changes and strategically relevant topics. You define goals, target groups, messages, formats, channels and timings and make sure that everything plays together in a meaningful way.

You coordinate the stakeholders involved, keep an eye on timelines and next steps and ensure high-quality implementation.

Your communication expertise

You are responsible for our internal communication plan and ensure that content is communicated to employees in the right format via the appropriate communication channels. You always have in mind who we want to reach and how we best reach these people.

And because good communication is evolving, together with the team you bring new ideas, formats and approaches.

Your way of working

Communication is teamwork. This is why you work in partnership with different teams and functions within IWC and have a good understanding of what they need in terms of communication.

You are a sparring partner for our internal customers: You listen, ask the right questions and translate requirements into clear and effective communication solutions.

At the same time, you work closely with the internal communications partners of the Richemont Group and ensure a good network between Group and Maison communication.

Your impulses

Good communication is never finished. Therefore, you regularly analyze the use, resonance and impact of our communication measures, actively collect feedback and derive concrete improvements from this.

You keep an eye on trends and new opportunities in internal communication and bring relevant impulses to our People Experience.

How you become part of the journey.

One size fits all? Not your style. - You can put yourself in different target groups and understand what moves them. You think in projects and keep track. - You can structure complex topics, set priorities and advance projects from the first briefing to implementation.

The subject may be complex. You have a good sense of reducing complex content to its core and developing clear messages and convincing communication from it.

You are not waiting for the perfect briefing. You ask the right questions, recognize what is behind a request and develop the appropriate communication solution together with your stakeholders. You are a sparring partner, not just an implementer. - In the team you bring your point of view and also dare to question things constructively.

You have ideas and get them on the road. - You combine conceptual thinking and creativity with real implementation strength.

You want to know if communication really works. – You listen, learn from it and use the insights to make communication continuously better.

A few things are still important to us...

You bring several years of experience in communication and project management, ideally in an international corporate environment.

You communicate very well in German and English, both in writing and orally.

Digital communication and collaboration tools are of course part of your everyday work.

What you can expect from us.

IWC offers you an exciting and multicultural working environment in which the well-being and personal development of our employees are the focus. Discover our culture, which combines the rich tradition of watchmaking with the latest innovation. Unleash your full potential and become part of our team.

The calculator on this site converts a gross salary into your actual net take-home once cross-border tax and social contributions are applied.

Is this a full-time role, and what type of contract does IWC offer?

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 IWC during the application process, since these details can vary by role even within the same contract category.

Do I need a cross-border work permit for a role in Schaffhausen?

EU/EFTA citizens living in an EU/EFTA state can apply for a G permit and can work anywhere in Switzerland: border zones no longer apply to them, and they must return home at least once a week. The Swiss employer files the request with Canton Schaffhausen's migration office after the contract is signed. Processing times vary by canton, so confirm the specifics with Schaffhausen's cantonal migration office or with HR during the application.
