About the job
Sunday evening, and you are already thinking about the next shift? You love your profession, but no longer the way you have to practise it? Then it is time for a place where leadership does not mean being constantly available. In Zurich, you lead a location, work psychotherapeutically, and the weekends belong to you again.
Since autumn 2025, an outpatient specialist clinic for psychiatric-psychosomatic treatment has also been represented in Zurich. It is comparable to a psychosomatic day clinic with an attached outpatient department in Germany. The concept has proven itself over the years at other locations, the team in Zurich is still young and growing. People with stress-related illnesses, depression, anxiety disorders or chronic pain are treated, with psychotherapy and body therapy at the centre.
Your tasks:
- Medical management of the location, in close coordination with the clinic management
- Professional leadership of the medical team and supervision of the therapists
- Treatment of your own patients, from initial assessment to case management
- Quality assurance and further development of the location concept
- Building a network with referrers, employers and insurers
Your skills:
- Specialist title in psychiatry and psychotherapy. Your German title is recognised via MEBEKO, and Medimeo supports you through the process
- Several years of experience as a senior physician, ideally in a psychosomatic clinic, a day clinic or an institute outpatient department
- Enjoy leading and holding a team together
- Very good German language skills (C1)
- Desire to contribute long-term in a growing company
Your benefits:
- Leadership responsibility without night and weekend shifts, five days a week
- Psychotherapeutically oriented concept instead of pure medication
- A location that can still bear your personal touch
- Short decision-making paths and a direct line to clinic management
- 5 weeks holiday and an additional 1 week for further training
- Life in Zurich: German-speaking, international, with lake and mountains, and with good connections to southern Germany
Your move with Medimeo
- A fixed contact person, confidential, even while you are still employed in Germany
- Support through MEBEKO recognition and cantonal professional practice permit, with cost sharing
- Assistance with finding accommodation, moving and registration in Switzerland
- A personal net comparison between Germany and Switzerland for your situation
