XING joins forces with HQ in Zurich
The online network XING is bringing all its employees in Switzerland together under one roof. The new Zurich office is home to the XING Switzerland team led by Managing Director René Maeder, as well as colleagues from the E-Recruiting division. The latter will be further strengthened on December 1 with Yves Schneuwly as the new Country Manager.
A total of 17 XING employees will drive the expansion of XING in Switzerland from the new office in downtown Zurich. Commenting on the move to the shared office at Gartenstrasse 25, XING Switzerland Managing Director René Maeder says: "By building up a top-class team last year, we laid the foundations for the successful implementation of our local strategy. The bundling of all XING business areas at a central address is another important step towards strengthening our presence in Switzerland and consistently aligning our offering to the needs of the local market."
New country manager
The Swiss XING E-Recruiting team is also moving to the shared address. With the arrival of Yves Schneuwly as Country Manager for E-Recruiting in Switzerland, this business customer area will also be further strengthened as of December 1. Schneuwly has many years of experience in the talent sector and joins XING from employer branding specialist Universum, where he managed the company's business in Switzerland.
The team from Eqipia, the Swiss specialist for employee recommendations acquired by XING in April of this year, is also moving into the new office.
