Twice as flexible.
Would you like to take on responsibility while remaining flexible? Whether it’s continuing education, family commitments or a time-consuming hobby, there are many reasons for wanting greater flexibility. With our co-leadership model, you have more flexibility in organising your working hours. And best of all: while you are away, you know that your job is in good hands, allowing you to fully focus on your home life.
In co-leadership, you share a managerial position with a second person. SBB supports this model with a total of 120% of a full-time post instead of the usual 100%. This gives you plenty of time to coordinate closely as a duo and to fulfil your responsibilities as co-managers together.
Successful co-leadership is based on shared values, mutual trust and open communication. The key is not being the same, but that you each bring different strengths to the table and respect different points of view. As a duo, you should be prepared to communicate regularly, share responsibility and tackle challenges together. With transparency, flexibility and a constructive culture of feedback, you work together successfully even in challenging situations.
Yes, job-sharing is also possible in other roles. In this arrangement, two employees share a full-time 100% position. Whether it should be 60:40 or 50:50 is something you negotiate yourselves.
As a two person team, you bring different skills, experience and perspectives to a shared role. You complement one another and create added value that goes beyond the strengths of any one individual. As a duo, you support and cover for one another in your day-to-day work, ensuring that tasks and projects stay on track even when one of you is absent.
To apply for a co-leadership role or job-sharing, you apply together with the person with whom you wish to share the post. The advantage is clear: You already know each other and know how you complement each other best.
Here’s how it works: You both apply for the vacancy individually and mention each other in the text field, which can be used optionally for a personal statement. This way, we can bring you together and consider your application as a duo.
