About the job
The SRG German-speaking Switzerland (SRG.D) is one of the four regional societies of the SRG SSR association, which operates the largest media company in Switzerland. With around 17,000 members, SRG.D anchors the company in society and advocates for the concerns and needs of the population. It accompanies the journalistic work of Swiss Radio and Television (SRF), supports the transformation of SRG SSR, and promotes public discourse about the media public service.
An important role in this context is played by the Audience Council. At the centre of its work is the Resonance Space – a physical and virtual meeting place where people from different walks of life and opinions come together in dialogue on programme-related topics, also with SRF programme makers. In addition, the Audience Council is the electoral body of the Ombudsman Office.
The regional board SRG.D has realigned the Audience Council as of October 2026: more focused in its mandate, with increased leadership responsibility in the presidency and professional support from the office. In addition to the presidency, we are looking for another committed member of the management team of the Audience Council SRG.D as of 1 January 2027.
