The National Cheese Company of Switzerland has three levels of jobs
and successful applicants should, with good annual progress, work their way
through the structure in as little as ten years. Pay is good and our employees report a high
level of job satisfaction. Let’s follow
Johan as an example.
Johan started working for NCCS in an entry level position. His daily work would be manual and all about
making our famous Swiss cheeses. There
would be variety in the job if he wanted it – he might alternate between
loading milk into vats, making sure cheese shapes were regular and transporting
produce around the factory – or he could choose to become an expert in a
particular area. Johan spent some time
trying a variety of jobs and eventually settled into QA jobs, such as
temperature checking, weighing and sizing, and strict rotation of stock in the
stores.
After four years, Johan was ready to move into a more senior role
and he was very excited about his development.
He took on supervising duties for an area of the production run, in his
case QA control. Johan made sure his
teams worked to strict limits and over a few years, his teams became the top
performing team in the company. He excelled
at management and NCCS rewarded him well for his hard work.
In time Johan took control of a second area, showing he could work
well across boundaries at a higher level.
He began to attend courses designed to move him into the third and
highest level in the company and he has just taken up his new tier three
post. He is now responsible for developing
strategic policies for disposal of cheese plugs.
The most popular Swiss cheese has many holes in its form and the
hole-making process is a patented trade secret.
Cheese engineers spend many years studying at university to learn how to
design, place and make the holes in Swiss cheese. But people like Johan who work their way
through the company are crucial in implementing the design genius of our
engineers. Without people like him
Switzerland would be hidden under a cheese-plug mountain in weeks.
Johan has a bright future in strategic cheese-plug disposal. Do you have what it takes to join him?
