Apprenticeship as a Production Mechanic (EFZ) 2027
Your future? It’s on track with us! Do you enjoy technology, love tinkering and want to know how machines really work? Then you’ve come to the right place! Bell is one of Switzerland’s leading food brands. At our site in Zell, Lucerne, we process poultry and manufacture a huge variety of products. Behind this are state-of-the-art production facilities, exciting technical processes and people who ensure that everything runs smoothly. And this is exactly where you come in! During your three-year apprenticeship as a production mechanic (EFZ), you’ll learn how individual components are turned into functioning machines, how to solve technical problems and how to keep our equipment running smoothly. You’ll be right at the heart of things, not just on the sidelines: in our workshop, right by the production lines and as part of a team that works together. Experienced specialists will guide you along the way, support you as you take your first steps into working life and give you the opportunity to take on responsibility independently. You’ll also become part of our Bell apprentice community and can shape your professional future together with other apprentices.
