Would you like to support companies abroad voluntarily as an expert? The Senior Expert Contact (SEC) is a voluntary program which undertakes short-term assignments in developing countries and Eastern Europe. We recruit only experienced professionals for between 2 and 12 weeks. The assignment is voluntary and there is no financial compensation.

To be accepted as an SEC expert, you should meet the following criteria:

• Extensive professional experience
• Specialised know-how
• Foreign language skills
• Good health
• Flexibility
• Openness to different cultures and people
• Participation in SEC information and training events
• Willingness to prepare and follow up on assignments
• Age limit is 80 years

Registration

If you are interested in an assignment, you can participate in an online info session as a first step: Registration info session SEC. Or contact us directly so that we can send you detailed documentation.

If, after reading these documents, you would like to register with the SEC, please fill out the Personalfile on the right in your mother tongue and the Curriculum Vitae in all your working languages (D, F, E and SP) and send them back to us by e-mail. Complete your application with a recent passport picture and send it to us by e-mail or ordinary mail.

Several times a year, we invite newly appointed Senior Experts to an Introduction course/Training SEC. The introduction course is taking place in Zurich on-site (in German) or virtual (in English) and must be attended by all experts before conducting a first SEC assignment.

Please send us the form only if you are interested in conducting a voluntary unpaid assignment.
