What you can look forward to.

In the Transport Planning team of SBB Cargo with 16 employees, you plan and coordinate the demand-oriented and efficient handling of freight transport and ensure a reliable transport chain. You work during office hours without shift work and significantly contribute to the performance of freight transport. In a committed team, you develop pragmatic solutions, coordinate these with internal and external partners, and drive improvements in our planning processes. You benefit from diverse development opportunities in logistics planning and from cross-departmental collaboration that advances you both professionally and personally.

What you can achieve.

• You actively question existing processes and consistently drive the continuous development and optimisation of our planning processes.

What you bring with you.

• You work independently and remain resilient even in demanding situations. You think holistically and act solution-oriented.
• Customer orientation and a confident eye for optimal resource utilisation.
