Meeting on an equal footing

The PostFinance culture fosters straightforward working relationships on an equal footing. We cooperate efficiently within a flat hierarchical structure and use familiar forms of address across all levels and departments, from our apprentices to our CEO. And although we are confident, we remain modest. We show appreciation for each other’s work.

With us, you can get ahead

At PostFinance, we offer our employees a wide range of opportunities for getting ahead, whether through support for basic and advanced training or in the form of internal on-the-job and face-to-face training. Or through the training of our managers with an emphasis on our Management Code of Conduct and our understanding of management. There is also the opportunity to work temporarily in other units in order to broaden horizons. In particular, we support young managers – men and women alike.

Working for an agile employer

We offer you a modern working environment: we provide modern workspaces, creative zones and spaces for discussion. We consciously avoid status symbols such as individual offices. Balancing work and leisure is important to us. As a result, you can manage your working hours flexibly. Working from home is also an option with us. In many units, you will have the opportunity to work from home. But we’re not only agile in terms of working hours and places; we also rely on agile project management methods to respond to rapidly changing market requirements.

First-hand accounts – our employees talk about their job

  • “I’m totally enthusiastic about my job and PostFinance as an employer. There’s really no end to the career opportunities available here. That was certainly the case for me when I joined PostFinance a few years ago. First I was part of the project to convert PostFinance into a private limited company. After the project was successfully completed, I took over the management of a team, and later the management of a whole department. I’m grateful to PostFinance for offering and encouraging opportunities like these, and I’m happy to say so to others. That’s why I support my employees systematically in their basic and advanced training and on their career path.”

  • “At PostFinance, we are pushing the digitization of Switzerland’s financial sector forward. Each and every one of us is needed to make this happen. Together we find simple solutions to challenging questions. I find it fascinating that PostFinance’s culture makes all this possible. The ideas of our employees are highly valued and are the mainstay of our progress. In order to make headway, we assign responsibility to our employees and interact on an equal footing. That is how we can achieve a lot and impress our customers with refreshing simplicity – every single day.”
