The original listing does not state a salary. Our estimate for this role and sector in Zürich is CHF 62'000 - 94'000 gross per year — an estimate, not a figure communicated by Orell Füssli Thalia. 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 Orell Füssli Thalia offer?
This listing is a internship and 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 Orell Füssli Thalia 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 Zürich?
EU/EFTA residents living in the border zone of the country adjoining Canton Zürich can apply for a G permit; the Swiss employer files it with that canton's migration office after the contract is signed. Border-zone rules and processing times vary by neighbouring country and canton, so confirm the specifics with Zürich's cantonal migration office or with HR during the application.
