Your job with a focus on IT business analysis

Work for the smartest banking in Switzerland

At PostFinance, we work on ways of managing Switzerland’s money both now and in the future. We create practical solutions for our customers and help shape the technology trends on the market. We achieve this thanks to our unique culture, which enables us to work with a pioneering spirit every day.

Your work with a focus on IT business analysis

As a bridge-builder, you are the touchpoint between specialist concepts and tangible IT solutions. On the entire spectrum from make to buy, PostFinance offers you a wide range of options. Alongside the product owner and other stakeholders, you focus on internal and external customers’ needs and expectations in our user stories. As part of an agile team, you are responsible for your product, and you support your specified solution during its short implementation cycles, right through to successful introduction. But your work is much more than simply implementing projects – you make a long-lasting impact on the design of our IT landscape, laying the foundations for sustained success.

You love flexible working – and so do we

Working from home isn’t just a “nice-to-have” perk for us, but has been standard for a long time. In many units, our employees in Switzerland have the option to work from home. What’s more, we have modern workspaces at our two locations in Bern and Zofingen, with creative zones and areas for exchanging ideas. We also offer co-working spaces in central locations at Bern station and Zurich Oerlikon station. To ensure that collaboration within the teams is as personalized as possible, we meet once a week for a team day in Bern or Zofingen. Balancing work and leisure is very important to us, which is why you can organize your working hours flexibly with us.

The core of our agile way of working and our cooperation is the “enterprise agile delivery” framework (EAD for short). When it comes to designing and further developing the EAD framework, PostFinance is guided by well-known, firmly established frameworks and practices. We incorporate aspects that are a fit for our company and culture, and deliberately avoid those that are not.

Avon Tharcisius

Business Analyst

“I work in the Mobile App unit, designing the future of digital banking at PostFinance alongside my colleagues. In my role, I support developments in the app, from fleshing out the initial idea right through to the finished product. I analyse the requirements, and I then use them to create the specification for developing new features. During this process, I maintain a close dialogue with the relevant stakeholders (e.g. UX designers, partner teams, etc.). Our agile approach enables my specification to be translated into code promptly, and I can verify very quickly whether all requirements are covered. The thing I like most about my job is that my activities have a direct impact on the customer experience. Openness to new ideas or alternative implementation options enables us to create the best possible solution for our customers as a team.”
Lynn Schwaar

Former Business Analyst and current Product Owner

“As part of a dynamic, helpful and extremely diverse team, I am involved with developing new and existing compliance solutions. The specialist tasks and processes in the Compliance unit are highly complex. Our goal is to automate them as much as possible and optimize them for the specialist units. To achieve this, we work closely with the different specialist units so that we can understand their needs and requirements and include them in the process optimization. In order to guarantee effective communication between the specialist units and our team and to implement the processes successfully, we use the BPMN standard. This standard enables us to model the business processes and use the Camunda Process Engine directly for implementation. While tackling these challenges, I enjoy working closely with a wide variety of roles, gaining insight into and understanding of a progressive, very technical world and promoting individual strengths.”
