Global talent acquisition and technology provider Volt’s European staffing business unit of Volt Information Sciences has opened a new office in Zurich.

The Swiss team will initially focus on IT & telecoms, engineering and financial markets.

Björn Milz, previously sales director for a Swiss-based agency operating within the telecoms and engineering sectors, heads up the Swiss operations. 

Richard Herring, Volt’s European managing director, says: ”This is a positive move for Volt, but more importantly for our customers. Opening an office in a new country is rarely a simple procedure; however certain factors contributed to our decision. Switzerland is an important trading nation, and in a globalised economy, offering customers a local service is often a strategic advantage.”
