Thanks to your communication skills, you know how to convince your interlocutors, whatever the level of hierarchy. Besides, you understand complex problems quickly and are able to break them down to find pragmatic solutions. You are distinguished by your personal commitment and sense of responsibility.

A fluent English level is mandatory, as well as a fluent French or German. Obviously, fluency in the three languages is a strong advantage to be a Senior SAP Program Manager in Switzerland. No sponsorship for a visa, all candidates must be eligible for a work permit.
