5% of live ads located in Switzerland have no explicit German, French or Italian requirement. Too few ads disclose pay here for an honest range yet — try the salary calculator.
Public architecture procurement from TED, the EU's official journal — deadlines still open, refreshed daily.
The chambers' own boards and specialist sites — ads here often never reach the big portals.
Often, yes: 5% of the 199 live ads located in Switzerland list no explicit German, French or Italian requirement right now. International studios and larger firms are the most flexible; small local practices usually expect German, French or Italian. Your portfolio can always be in English.
Too few live ads in Switzerland disclose pay for an honest advertised range yet. As a rough European guide, junior architects start around €24k–38k gross/year and senior roles run €45k–75k+, with big differences by country and city.
To use the protected title "architect" and sign off projects, yes — in Switzerland that means REG (Swiss register, voluntary); SEFRI/SBFI is the recognition contact point, with EU/EEA qualifications recognised under Directive 2005/36/EC. To be employed at a studio, usually no: many roles (architectural assistant, BIM specialist, designer) don't require local registration. Country-by-country details are in our registration reference.
Beyond the big portals: specialist and chamber boards such as Archijobs.ch, architekten-jobs.ch, Architekturstellen.ch (and 12 more), studios' own careers pages, and word of mouth — which is why speculative applications work so well in architecture.
