Head of Safety & Security 80-100%
This is what your daily work looks like
- At the core: You lead the Safety & Security team both professionally and personally and manage the areas of occupational safety and health protection, physical security, as well as emergency management.
- In the crisis team, you are part of the core staff, ensuring the readiness of the emergency organisation and a professional first response to security-relevant incidents.
- In daily operations, you manage the recording, processing, documentation, and follow-up of security-relevant incidents and derive effective measures from them.
- With targeted training, awareness-raising measures, and sound advice, you strengthen the safety awareness of our employees and managers at all hierarchical levels.
- At the same time, you monitor regulatory developments, translate new requirements into operational practice, and verify the effectiveness and compliance of our safety measures through cross-site audits.
- Through active stakeholder management, you work closely with risk management and ensure clear processes around access authorisations at all our locations.
What you bring with you
- First and foremost: You hold a Swiss federal certificate as a specialist in occupational safety and health protection (ASGS) or a comparable qualification, as well as a certified training as a safety officer for fire protection (SIBE).
- With at least five years of professional experience in Safety & Security, you have developed safety, emergency, and threat management concepts and successfully implemented them in practice.
- You are confident in handling access control, intrusion alarm, and fire alarm systems and build and operate an effective emergency organisation.
- You have already gained experience in leading a team and move confidently and assuredly in exchange with governing bodies, authorities, as well as internal and external stakeholders.
- Under pressure, you act in a structured, independent, and responsible manner and convince with assertiveness, diplomatic skill, and a pronounced sense for sensitive situations.
- You express yourself fluently in German; knowledge of French is a plus. Good MS Office skills, an impeccable reputation, and the willingness to work at least three days a week at our headquarters in Lucerne complete your profile.
