Nr. 1 address for startup jobs in Switzerland
investiere.ch has developed the most comprehensive free job offering for startups.

Recruiting talent is one of the most important aspects contributing to a startup’s success, but it is also a major challenge. Young companies lack the resources and name recognition to ensure the right candidates become aware of their job openings and cannot rely on a large HR department to distribute open positions far and wide. In addition, most startups cannot afford traditional headhunters to fill key positions. As one of the most active early-stage investors in Switzerland with a portfolio of over 40 startups, we have witnessed these challenges first-hand numerous times. For this reason, we have decided to leverage our technology platform and community to develop the most comprehensive free job offering for startups.
Here are 4 reasons why startups should use investiere to find the right talent:
1. Turbocharging your recruiting at the click of a button
In late 2015, investiere.ch launched a free jobs platform where startups can promote job openings and hire key staff from our community of entrepreneurially-minded individuals. Since then, this has evolved into the most comprehensive offering of Swiss startup jobs with over 500 open positions advertised. Now we have gone a step further to make our jobs platform an invaluable and indispensable tool for startups seeking talent: Startups can submit their career pages directly to investiere.ch, allowing their jobs to automatically be added to the job openings on investiere.ch
2. Ideal community for any type of hire
investiere.ch’s community consists of over 10’000 members with diverse and highly relevant backgrounds for startups. “investiere.ch is not only a place to find software engineers, marketing professionals and salespeople, but the ideal network to also find senior hires who can help bring your company to the next level,” states co-founder Steffen Wagner and adds: “Oftentimes our investors are keen to not only invest in startups, but also get involved operationally. These are successful entrepreneurs and C-level managers with invaluable leadership experience and top-notch networks in Switzerland and abroad. Nowhere else do startups have such streamlined access to entrepreneurially-minded senior candidates.”
3. Automatic distribution
While our platform is now the most comprehensive address for startup jobs, there are numerous other job platforms on the market and it’s thus in a startup’s interest to get the most exposure possible. To this end, investiere.ch has established partnerships with numerous leading job platforms including jobs.ch, XING, Talentfly, jobagent, jobooh and 100000jobs.ch. All jobs published on investiere.ch are automatically distributed across these various platforms, granting startups an unrivalled reach for their job postings. Furthermore, we are constantly expanding our network of partners to ensure even better reach.
4. Leveraging our approach to VC
“Tech startups are only successful if they can find highly qualified and motivated candidates. However, recruiting the best applicants is a real challenge for a small, growing company. That’s why we decided to actively support startups in this regard,” says Lukas Weber, co-founder of investiere.ch. With a community of over 2,000 private investors, investiere.ch is one of the leading providers of venture capital for Swiss tech start-ups. “With our approach based on technology and community we are disrupting the VC market and the way that startups obtain investments. For us it is only logical to put these resources to use to solve the other big challenge that startups face: finding the best talent to succeed.”
