Open 3+ months Zurich Senior · permanent · Ad written in English
We help healthcare providers sharpen their strategy, design organisations that work and put changes into practice in day-to-day hospital operations. Depending on your previous responsibilities, you’ll take on a workstream, an engagement or a programme.
  • Strategic planning. Develop strategic positioning, assess service portfolios and make-or-buy options, and align long-term building and site planning with future operations.
  • Process and organisational design. Develop target operating models and operational concepts, reshape organisations, clarify how teams work together and help staff adopt new workflows in day-to-day practice.
  • Operations management. Develop the target state and strategy, optimise procurement and the supply chain, and make operating theatre logistics efficient and patient-centred.
  • New hospital development. Develop operational concepts with the user groups for a smooth opening.
  • Medication workflows. Define a standard workflow with the professional groups involved, support its phased rollout and prepare for unit-dose dispensing.
  • Operating theatre logistics. Standardise how supplies are managed across a hospital network, speed up ordering in theatres and enable stock monitoring.
  • Senior Consultant. You own workstreams or subprojects through to completion. For example, you might develop an operational concept with the teams who will use it.
  • Manager. You lead engagements independently and manage the project team. You’re responsible for budget, quality and outcomes and are the hospital leadership’s point of contact for the engagement.
  • Senior Manager. You lead programmes and own the wider client relationship at executive level. You help develop our healthcare consulting services.
  • You have at least three years’ experience in management consulting with a focus on healthcare providers.
  • Level based on your previous responsibilities. You’ve owned workstreams or subprojects (Senior Consultant), led engagements independently (Manager), or been responsible for programmes and client relationships (Senior Manager).
  • Expertise in hospital strategy and development planning, operational and process planning, organisational design or hospital supply chains, along with an understanding of the Swiss healthcare system.
  • A master’s degree in business, health economics or engineering, or an equivalent qualification.
  • You have very good German and good English. Italian is a plus.
  • You think analytically, work in a structured way and get to the point.
  • You speak plainly, ask difficult questions and handle disagreements constructively.
  • You take responsibility for the outcome, not just your own part.
  • You understand what matters to people and build support for change among doctors, nurses and support teams.
  • You ask for feedback and give it openly.
  • See the impact of your work. We stay until the solution works in day-to-day hospital operations. You see what changes as a result of your work.
  • Accountability for results. We only take on engagements where we’re confident we can succeed together.
  • Help build the firm. You shape how we advise clients and how we use our AI platform in project work.
