This is what you can look forward to.
At the strategically important base in Olten, we are looking for several police officers as part of an expansion. You will strengthen the existing team and ensure, through citizen-oriented police work, that people feel safe on public transport. Instead of administrative routine, the focus is on deployment close to the action – across cantonal borders and embedded in a strong, appreciative team. Attractive working conditions are important to us – even with irregular working hours. Thanks to clearly regulated rest periods and only a few night shifts, it is easy to balance work and private life with the SBB Transport Police. You can choose your workload flexibly between 40-100%, and there is no residency requirement. Night and weekend work is additionally compensated, e.g. with CHF 16.- per hour for Sunday work as well as time surcharges of 10-30% for night shifts. Further benefits such as a free 2nd class GA, child allowances and discounted travel at home and abroad – also for your family – can be found under "Benefits" .
This is what you can achieve.
- As a police officer of the SBB Transport Police, you ensure safety, calm and order together with over 200 colleagues nationwide at stations and on public transport of various transport companies.
- Your focus is on uniformed patrol services in transport vehicles, stations and on the premises of transport companies.
- In your role, you make a significant contribution to the safety of travellers and staff in public transport.
- During police interventions, you take responsibility within the team and in cooperation with partner organisations – also at major events.
- You work situation-oriented and are always at the pulse of what is happening in public transport.
- In building up the team, you contribute actively and help shape it.
This is what you bring with you.
- As a team player, you appreciate collaboration on equal terms and actively contribute to the team.
- You present yourself openly, respectfully and professionally and meet customers with a strong service orientation.
- You hold the federal professional certificate Police Officer I as well as sound police tactical and technical knowledge.
- Very good oral and written German skills distinguish you; knowledge of a second national language is an advantage.
- You handle digital work tools confidently and responsibly and use them purposefully in everyday operations.
Your salary and benefits.
We have a fair and progressive salary system and actively promote pay equality. Therefore, further and detailed information about the salary system at SBB is transparently accessible. This position is at requirement level H, regional allowance level 0. More about salary and benefits .
