Work opportunities
As a process technician HF, your career prospects look promising. You can position yourself in the management (lower to middle management) of industrial or technology-related companies, logistics and service companies or trading companies of any size. There you can take on responsible specialist and management tasks in the areas of development, planning, implementation, monitoring and optimization of processes and procedures. The specific tasks depend on the logistics area in which you are working. In principle, you will be responsible for ensuring smooth and efficient processes within your area and will also make the necessary decisions, for example on optimization measures.
As a traditional export country, Switzerland is reliant on skilled workers with the relevant expertise to set up and manage global trade routes. Demand is correspondingly high and will probably continue to increase in the future.
