What you can look forward to.
As Team Leader Vehicle Diagnostics, you make a direct contribution to the safe, reliable and customer-oriented mobility of Switzerland. Together with your team of ten diagnosticians, you ensure that technical faults in the rolling stock of passenger transport are quickly detected, analysed and sustainably resolved. The assignments take place on-site directly at the station or in the assigned area. You combine technical know-how with modern leadership, thus creating the conditions for a high availability of our fleet. In this varied role, you take responsibility for employees, processes and technical developments. You work closely with various specialist departments and actively shape the future of vehicle diagnostics. Our team is characterised by high expertise, mutual support and pragmatic solution orientation. In addition, the role offers attractive training and development opportunities in leadership and technology. Benefits such as a free GA travelcard, discounted travel abroad – also for the family – can be found on our website under Benefits and more information about the profession can be found here.
What you can achieve.
- You lead a team of ten diagnosticians both professionally and personally and ensure efficient vehicle diagnostics at the Bern site while complying with applicable safety regulations.

- You are responsible for the deployment planning and time management of your team, ensuring that sufficient personnel are always available at the site.
- You are also responsible for the office and site infrastructure, ensuring its appropriate use and smooth operation.
- In close cooperation with the helpdesk, maintenance, operations and other partners, you develop sustainable solutions to increase the safety, availability and reliability of the vehicle fleet.
- By analysing fault patterns and key figures, you identify optimisation potential and accompany technical innovations as well as digitalisation projects in the field of vehicle diagnostics.
What you bring with you.
- You communicate complex technical contexts clearly, make well-founded decisions and can justify them comprehensibly.
- Leadership experience in a technical environment or the potential and motivation to specifically develop into a leadership role characterise you.
- You have completed a technical basic education, for example as a mechatronics technician, automation technician, electrician or in a comparable technical profession.
- Ideally, you bring experience in vehicle diagnostics, maintenance or technical support of vehicles.
- You are willing to work partly in shifts as well as at night and on weekends.
