Environmental job exchange expands into western Switzerland
After a successful launch, OdA Umwelt is launching a French-language version of its environmental job board.
The environmental industry is in vogue: the environmental job exchange Environmental professionals.ch already recorded over 100,000 views in the first half of the year after its launch.
Ueli Bernhard, Managing Director of OdA Umwelt, Network of Environmental and Cleantech Professions, is delighted with the success of the project: "More and more people are looking for meaningful, sustainable work. At the same time, the environmental and cleantech sectors are suffering from a shortage of skilled workers. As a bridge builder between employers and employees in the environmental sector, our job exchange does justice to these developments."
Now the French-language version of the portal starts: On ecoprofessions-emplois.ch young people, career changers and specialists can find all relevant jobs in the environmental and cleantech sectors. Thanks to the semantic search, which an IT partner contributes to the project, the search results are more precise and accurate than with conventional job search engines. Behind this is an ontology that incorporates expert knowledge gathered over decades. It is constantly being further developed.
All environmental jobs covered
All relevant professions in the environmental and cleantech sectors are covered, from recyclist to nature and environmental specialist to drainage technologist. Currently, more than 400 job ads can be found on the platform. They are divided into the categories "recycling and waste management", "water supply and wastewater disposal", "environmental protection and environmental engineering", "nature and landscape conservation" and "energy efficiency and renewable energies".
