Do you want to actively shape the future with us? And jointly develop innovative solutions as well as further professionalise our business? If yes - then you are right with us! We offer a working environment where thinking along is required, teamwork is highly valued and flexibility is promoted. We look forward to you and your involvement and are convinced: "Together we make the difference."
We at Corporate Real Estate Management (CREM) take care of AXA's owner-occupied properties in Switzerland. The area of responsibility covers all aspects of building management - from the building fabric to building technology and janitorial operations to furnishing and relocation planning. Our headquarters is located in Winterthur, where we manage around 2400 workplaces. In addition, there are around 1100 workplaces at the regional sites Zurich, Bern, Lugano, St. Gallen and Lausanne. For these regional sites, we are looking for a new site manager.
In the Customer Operations area, we shape the individual experiences of our customers in the event of damage and claims. They are at the centre with us and together with them we find the right solution. This way, we ensure the highest customer satisfaction with our customer-first mentality.
What to expect
- You lead a team of 6 FTE, which takes care of the operational building management of the sites Bern, Lugano, Lausanne, Zurich and St. Gallen. This includes a wide range of topics in the areas of facility management (e.g. janitorial services, reception, cleaning), security (e.g. SIBE, evacuation), space management (e.g. relocations, parking management, space planning, projects).
- The team currently consists of two small teams, which will be newly merged under your leadership. The merging of the two teams is an important aspect of your work, especially in the first two years. Together with your team, you analyse responsibilities, processes and workflows and restructure them by simplifying, standardising and further developing their digitalisation.
- You are part of the CREM management team and form the interface to the other specialist departments in CREM (HVAC, electrical, janitorial services, CREM services and workplace management) as well as to the Accounting & Controlling department. You provide input so that the needs of the regional sites can be incorporated into concepts and decisions. In addition, you implement measures developed by the specialist departments in the regions, taking into account the respective conditions at each site.
- You are responsible for stakeholder management, which includes both internal committees (e.g. employees and managers at the regional sites) as well as external stakeholders (e.g. administrations, tenants) and ensure good communication and collaboration.
- Together with your team, you are responsible for provider management (e.g. janitorial services, cleaning, reception, post) - you coordinate, conduct negotiations and take on strategic topics and proactively manage to ensure smooth operations.
- You take responsibility for the financial management as well as contracts in your area, prepare calculations, SLAs and reports.
- You enthusiastically contribute to the building strategy and implement projects at the regional sites and provide input for the further development of the sites.
What you bring
- You have a completed degree in business organisation/economics, real estate management, facility management or a similar field as well as several years of professional experience.
- You have leadership experience as well as experience in change management and enjoy supporting a team through change. You are flexible, proactive and assertive and convince with strong social skills, especially empathy, trustworthiness and reliability.
- Strong analytical skills and a high digital affinity characterise you. You enjoy analysing and further developing responsibilities, workflows and processes together with your team.
- You are willing to travel (Switzerland) and enjoy regularly visiting the various AXA sites in Switzerland.
- Negotiation skills as well as very good communication and language skills complete your profile - you speak fluent German and can communicate in English and French.
