What awaits you.

As a locomotive pilot, you are doing great things: by working at SBB Voyageurs, you carry around 482 million travellers each year. Once the second 15-month training has been completed, you travel the most beautiful railway lines in Switzerland. You bring our travelers to destination with punctuality, thus contributing to a positive travel experience with the SBB. Your professional daily also offers you many opportunities for evolution as well as attractive conditions for all life situations. At home, night and weekend work is entitled to additional remuneration (e.g. 16 francs per hour for Sunday work). Time increases of between 10 and 30% are also granted for night work. This means that you have more free time than the staff who do not work at night or on weekends. In addition, at the end of the locomotive pilot training, you will be required to work in the Payerne or Vallorbe or Lausanne depots. What you can move.

• As a locomotive pilot, you not only take the lead on the train, but also take responsibility for safety and punctuality on a busy rail network.
• During the journey, great attention must be paid to react quickly and correctly to signals, speed instructions and unpredictable events.
• You are self-employed while at the same time maintaining contact with operating centres and management positions.
• In addition to driving and manoeuvring trains, your tasks also include checking the technical condition before and after taking over the vehicle.
