You can look forward to that.
At SBB Cargo, you are on the pulse of the Swiss economy. SBB Cargo transports 170,000 tons a day, relieving road traffic of 15,000 trucks per day and the environment of 460,000 tons of CO2 per year. An innovative working environment awaits you, in which you move the SBB Cargo together with your teammates. In addition, you will receive a varied and paid training in the marshalling station. In addition, various further training opportunities are open to you, such as training as a shunting engine driver. Attractive working conditions are important to us, even for irregular working hours. Night and weekend work is also paid for with us - for example with 16 francs per hour for Sunday work. For night assignments, you also get time surcharges between 10 and 30%. This means that you have more free time than employees without night and weekend assignments. Interested in learning more about our professions? We look forward to seeing you from 22 to 24. 2026 in our SBB Berufswelten Café at Zurich Central Station. All information can be found at sbb.ch/berufsweltencafe. You can move that.

The original listing does not state a salary. Our estimate for this role and sector in Zürich is CHF 79'000 - 134'500 gross per year — an estimate, not a figure communicated by FFS Officine (Ferrovie Federali). 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 FFS Officine (Ferrovie Federali) 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 FFS Officine (Ferrovie Federali) 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.
