Around 600 apprentices are taught in basic education, supplemented by a continuing education offering with about 40 students in courses to prepare for professional examinations, higher specialist examinations, and certificate completions. At the beginning of the spring semester 2027 or by arrangement, we are looking for a committed and strong-willed personality as Department Head Automotive Technology. The function is performed in a co-leadership model. Together with your leadership partner, you bear the overall responsibility for the department and shape its strategic, personnel, pedagogical, and organizational further development. Your tasks Your core tasks include, in particular, the personnel leadership, promotion, and development of the around 40 teachers, the ensuring of a high-quality and reliable school operation, as well as the planning, management, and responsibility for the financial and personnel resources. Furthermore, you are responsible for further developing the educational offerings and instruction in close cooperation with the stakeholders of vocational education. The maintenance and expansion of cooperation with associations, companies, ÜK centers, and other partners, as well as active participation in the extended school management of the TBZ and co-shaping the school development, round off your area of responsibility. Your profile You have several years of teaching and leadership experience at the secondary level II and ideally bring a broad network in the automotive industry. You know how to lead people, bring different interests together, and implement changes in a goal-oriented manner. A completed university degree (FH, ETH, or university) in a subject area relevant to automotive technology or a comparable education is just as much part of your educational portfolio as a teaching diploma for vocational schools (EHB, PHZH, or equivalent qualification). You have either already completed school management training or would be prepared to complete it promptly. Proven leadership competencies as well as a high degree of communication and cooperation skills are also decisive competencies that you bring with you. We are looking for an upright, decisive, and entrepreneurial personality who takes responsibility, acts in a networked manner, and actively co-shapes the further development of vocational education.
