Physiotherapy jobs in Switzerland

Working in a sports clinic in the city or in a small practice in the mountains: at takeoff you will find physiotherapy vacancies across German-speaking Switzerland.

Working as a physiotherapist in Switzerland

Our vacancies are spread across German-speaking Switzerland: in and around the big cities, and in smaller practices in the mountain cantons. Every vacancy shows the region, the salary and the hours straight away, so you can compare for yourself before you speak to us.

Working in Switzerland starts with the recognition of your diploma, the SRK. We have written out what an SRK actually is and how to apply for one, including the steps people commonly get stuck on.

What you are left with

The amounts in our vacancies are gross. What you keep depends on your canton, your health insurance and where you live. So we worked out what is left of a physio salary after tax and what life in Switzerland costs, so you can translate a gross figure into your own situation.

Language and your first year

In almost all of our vacancies you work in German. If you are still at the start of that, we arrange language support with your own teacher. What your first year really looks like has been written down for you by physiotherapists who went before you.

What takeoff does for you

We guide you through the recognition of your diploma, the application and your move. It costs you nothing, because the practices pay us. Our page on how it works sets out every step, and in the stories of physiotherapists who went before you you can read how it goes in practice. If you get stuck, ask your question or book a no-obligation introduction.
