Is this a full-time role, and what type of contract does Lonza Group AG offer?
This listing is a full-time position.

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