Full description

We are the pulse of Zurich and keep the city in motion every 7.5 minutes. In order for this to work reliably and smoothly, a lot moves behind the scenes of the VBZ. Our colleagues work in over 50 professions: in technology, IT, administration, traffic development, offer planning, infrastructure and many other exciting areas of responsibility. Where we drive, Zurich lives. Come on!

  • You perform electrical revision work on all types of trams.
  • This also includes new productions of electrical installations and electrical conversion work.
  • The processing of pre-assembly units and repair work after heavy collisions on electrical installations are also in your area of responsibility.
  • You support the commissioning of all tram types that drive with us as well as their troubleshooting and repair.
  • The repair of electronic components of the vehicles as well as additional assigned tasks complement your area of activity.

However, this also includes

  • Work in difficult space, noise, light, temperature and draft conditions.
  • High proportion of “overhead work” also in work pits.
  • Working on wagon roofs with fall protection.
  • Surrounded by hazards such as 600 volts, lifting equipment, cranes, dust, machinery, exhaust gases.
  • Impeachable disruptions and interruptions at work.
  • You bring a basic technical training as an automatic engineer, electronics engineer, electromechanic, electrical installer or similar.
  • Electroschemata you can read, understand and create.
  • Ideally, you are familiar with rail vehicles such as Tram.
  • You are an exact and responsible person.
  • We presuppose initiative and motivation for technical work.
  • You are aware of the usefulness of your work for public transport.
  • You enjoy working in a team and feel comfortable in the workshop environment.

A lot of appreciation for what you do: The people of Zurich like their VBZ. Working with us is proud. We want you to feel good: We are “Friendly Workspace” certified and do a lot for your health. Discover the whole of Switzerland with the free GA – and the family also drives really well thanks to generous discounts.

Do you bring all the knowledge and experience that is important for this position? Great, then we are happy to make you a fair wage offer, which is between CHF 75’000.00 and 95’000.00 annual wage (100% amount). We are often also interested in applications from talents who do not yet meet all requirements or on the other hand have an above-average amount of knowledge and experience. In such cases, initial wages are also easily below or above this range.

With our vehicles we travel twice a day around the world and transport over 860,000 passengers. This means that every day, 365 days a year and almost around the clock we make an important contribution to the quality of life in one of the most beautiful cities in the world.

The position shall be filled immediately or by agreement.

Questions about this listing

What salary does Stadt Zürich offer for this role?

The original listing does not state a salary. Our estimate for this role and sector in Zürich is CHF 73'500 - 111'500 gross per year — an estimate, not a figure communicated by Stadt Zürich. 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 Stadt Zürich 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 Stadt Zürich 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 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. The Swiss employer files the request with Canton Zürich's migration office after the contract is signed. Processing times vary by canton, so confirm the specifics with Zürich's cantonal migration office or with HR during the application.
