About
Bilingual DE/EN Working Professional
Hi! I’m Holly and I am looking to move to Switzerland for work! I hold a Master’s Degree in Management-Marketing from the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee. I’ve been living in Berlin, Germany for about 4 years now. I’m looking to move to Switzerland to be closer to my host family, who are like family to me. I’ve got a passion for building relationships and making connections, and can happily communicate in English or German! I’m seeking an Executive or Team Assistant position, will the goal to collaborate with creative entrepreneurs and help make their business a success! Since it seems to come up a lot, I’ll add that I do need Visa sponsorship, as I only hold a US Passport at the moment. I love my life in Europe, and have been lucky enough to travel to many cities in Switzerland - now the only thing left is for me to find a job here and officially make it my home!

I work with Bathroom & Plumbing Suppliers from all over the UK and Germany. I educate them on Wayfair’s business model and facilitate on boarding them to Wayfair. I work with many cross-functional stakeholders, many of them them at the Senior Manager level. My goal is to help bring major suppliers into Wayfair to help improve the category assortment and bring more awareness to the Renovation/Home Improvement categories on Wayfair. I switch off between using English and German during my workday, and am confident speaking in both languages.
