About the job
About BERNMOBILBERNMOBIL is a deeply rooted company in the city and region of Bern with state-of-the-art vehicles and a variety of professions. Our red trams and buses are as much a part of the city of Bern as the Aare or the Zytglogge. More than 1000 employees move over 100 million passengers annually in the Bern region. This makes BERNMOBIL one of the larger transport companies in Switzerland. Despite BERNMOBIL's size and reach, we are proud of our family atmosphere and offer a culture where all employees meet on equal terms. The diversity of our employees and our professions is of great value and particularly noteworthy. We do not just operate trams and buses. We also maintain our vehicles or plan and build large parts of our infrastructure ourselves. Additionally, we operate the office of the Libero tariff association. With our new trams and electric buses, we also make a valuable contribution to the environment. Without a doubt: working at BERNMOBIL is definitely worthwhile.
