The ability to understand what can make a business great (product-wise, commercially, in terms of image, etc.), and usually making correct decisions, even in the presence of ambiguity, is paramount. ➕ Big plus: - You speak French and/or Italian. - Insurance knowledge/interest. 💡 What you will be working on - Working alongside the team and the founders on business priorities, such as unlocking new growth, product decisions, and onboarding partners. - You will mainly work in the “People” and “Health” departments, which comprehend tasks like organising team events and trips, prepare content for our social media channels, prepare various applications for events and awards, prospecting and outreaching to health partners and support the promotion of the health platform. 🍇 Our Offer - Great career trajectory. - 12 paid mental health sessions per year. - 25 days of paid vacation per year. - Regular team events and retreats. - Hybrid setup: we’re all setup remotely, however, we love spending time together in our beautiful office in Hardbrücke, Zürich. - We believe in ownership from day one and empower each and everyone in our team to take on responsibility. - You are joining a company that wants to change the way health (both physical and mental) is perceived and promoted within the workplace. Employees at grape can profit from various benefits that enhance your wellbeing. - You have the chance to play a decisive role in shaping our company in its rapid growth. - You will be part of a group of highly ambitious people. You may have heard the saying "you become the average of the five people you spend the most time around". Expect that average to be very high when it comes to ambition at grape. - We are an inclusive team and value everyone's unique background. - We expect different opinions and appreciate honest and frequent feedback. We thrive to create a safe work environment where nobody has to hide their real self. - Easter egg: to gain brownie points and show us that you read the entire job description include the phrase "Holy grape, I'd love to join the team!" as a headline in your application. - For this position we can only admit Swiss or EU/EFTA applicants. 🚀 Next steps 1.
