Executive Assistant to the Chairman of the Board (m/f/d)

For over 100 years, we have been moving people. The Knecht Group is one of the leading Swiss corporate groups in the fields of passenger transport (Eurobus), travel (knecht reisen), freight transport (Welti-Furrer), healthcare (knechtcare) and commercial vehicles (Thomann). With around 3,000 employees and 35 subsidiaries, the group operates throughout Switzerland – family-owned and with a long entrepreneurial tradition.

For the Chairman of the Board and owner, Dr Thomas Knecht, we are looking for an experienced, discreet personality from the beginning of 2027 or earlier: classic in demeanour and diligence, confident in handling digital tools. Someone who thinks ahead, anticipates and becomes a fixed constant in the group management environment.

You come from the upscale hotel industry (e.g. executive assistant, front office management, guest relations or EHL graduate) and want to bring your passion for hospitality and organisational talent into the strategic private sector. You appreciate regular working hours (Monday to Friday) without losing the dynamic, service-oriented environment.

Your tasks alongside the Chairman of the Board:

• Strategic and organisational relief of the Chairman of the Board and owner in all operational matters.
• Hub function and professional stakeholder management between the various group companies.
• Preparation, organisation and minute-taking of board and executive management meetings.
• Coordination of complex travel management, scheduling and exclusive customer events.
• Handling demanding correspondence and creating presentations in German and partly in English

• Training in top-level hospitality (e.g. hotel management school, HF/FH) or further education as an executive assistant with a federal diploma.
• Absolute discretion, loyalty and an excellent, confident appearance.
• The ability to act proactively and keep an overview even in hectic situations.
• Very good MS Office skills as well as a strong digital affinity.

An absolute key position with great scope for action directly at the top management of a healthy, versatile corporate group. Attractive employment conditions, modern offices in the Brugg/Windisch region and the benefits of regulated corporate working hours await you.
