Batuhan, Intern: In Quality Management at Plant 1, I had the privilege of closely collaborating with the production and diverse value streams. The advantageous aspect of my role was the substantial variety of tasks, allowing me to engage with a wide array of individuals. I was actively involved in day-to-day operations and spearheaded numerous exciting projects for which I held accountable roles. One of the most exciting projects I worked on was Organizing, Coordinating and the Analysis of a Quality Pilot Series Production (QN) for a newly introduced product.

Joining more than 2100 colleagues from over 70 nationalities at one of our headquarters locations in Schaan, Nendeln, or Buchs is more than a career move. It’s your opportunity to enjoy the energizing, alpine lifestyle - where Liechtenstein, Austria, and Switzerland seamlessly meet.

Share your interests and become a part of one of our employee groups leading change locally, for example, supporting female empowerment or the LGBTQ+ community or joining a leisure group for a Wednesday mountain bike ride or tennis match. If you are passionate about giving back to the community, we have various opportunities to volunteer through our engaged beyond business program locally and internationally.

Additional benefits of our headquarters location include shared e-bikes for your commute, an on-site gym, three restaurants, language courses, learning and development training opportunities, tax insurance, financial guidance, child care, relocation and spousal support, and more.
