We are the specialist department for property and technical business insurance and are responsible for the underwriting of large and complex customers. Our technical insurance includes in particular assembly, machine and machine comprehensive insurance as well as solutions in the IT sector.

Then you've come to the right place. If you enjoy advice and customer contact, have strong communication and negotiation skills and are not put off by occasional travel within Switzerland, read on - our team of experts looks forward to hearing from you!
This is what awaits you

Questions about this listing
What salary does AXA Svizzera offer for this role?
The original listing does not state a salary. Our estimate for this role and sector in Winterthur is CHF 114'500 - 203'000 gross per year — an estimate, not a figure communicated by AXA Svizzera. 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 AXA Svizzera 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 AXA Svizzera 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.
