The Swiss Import Promotion Programme SIPPO is a trade promotion programme of the State Secretariat for Economic Affairs SECO, implemented by Swisscontact. SIPPO is active in partner countries and in six economic sectors. SIPPO develops capacities of local business support organisations (BSO) to improve their export promotion services to their affiliated export-oriented companies, helping them gaining access to new markets in Switzerland and the EU. This leads to stronger local export promotion systems and to better integration of SIPPO partner countries into world trade. SIPPO thus contributes to sustainable, inclusive economic growth through export. The programme is currently concluding in its second programme phase - and enters its third phase – our SIPPO Global Services Team in Switzerland, we are looking to recruit a dedicated member of staff with effect from February 1st, 6 or by agreement as a Sector Lead Food (%).
