Risk Manager (f/m) 80-100%

About the job

Schwarz und Wyss - our favorite colors since 1899. Simple. Elegant. Straightforward. As an employer, however, we are refreshingly colorful, diverse, and varied. And sometimes quite different than you might think. Like here in the job advertisement. Because who actually says that women are simply implied in male texts? Since we want even more female power at BKB, we simply turn the tables and write in the female form. Men? Of course, still welcome. Would you like to learn more about who we are and how we tick? Gladly.
