Must-Haves
* Hands-on experience in accounting (e.g. bookkeeping, GL, closing, reconciliations) and/or direct exposure to corporate tax compliance processes
* Good understanding of financial data and Excel
* Already eligible to work in Switzerland
* Willing and able to work 50–60% on a regular basis
* Willing and able to meet the required on-site presence in Pratteln (hybrid setup, but more than 50% of working time on-site is required)
Nice-to-Haves
* Experience in corporate income tax processes (any jurisdiction)
* Experience in administrative compliance roles
* Comfort working with ERP systems (SAP an advantage)
Who This Role Is Good For
* Accounting/finance professionals seeking a stable part-time role
* Returning professionals (e.g., after family period)
* Detail-oriented, dependable candidates who prefer structured work
* People who want international exposure without a high-pressure tax career
