Deine Aufgaben

Über die Stelle

SIX runs the infrastructure behind the Swiss and Spanish financial markets: exchanges, post-trade, financial information and banking services. Every year, SIX invests a substantial budget in projects that shape that infrastructure. The team ensures that investments deliver what was promised and provides the Executive Board with a clear view of the entire project portfolio. The internship focuses on rebuilding how SIX manages its project portfolio, including a new framework for allocating investment capital, decision formats for the Executive Board, and new ways to fund initiatives such as AI.
