* You have a strong professional network – preferably within Switzerland – that provides you with direct access to relevant partners and projects.
* You are passionate about teaching and ideally hold a teaching qualification – or are willing to obtain one after starting the position.
* You are a proactive, communicative individual who stands out through expertise and a clear drive to shape the future of the institute.
