For our 25th birthday, we’re giving ourselves nothing less than a happier world. And we’re relying on you to come up with an idea and a plan for how to make this happen in 2019. 

Unfortunately, applications for this position are now closed. You can find out about the current state of global happiness and our Executive Vice Pleasident for Global Happiness here.

Here’s the old job listing:

EXECUTIVE VICE PLEASIDENT FOR GLOBAL HAPPINESS

In your joint roles as happiness innovator, HX designer, global serotonin dispenser and happy controller, you’ll work to increase the global level of happiness over the long term, try to reach as many people as possible and keep an eye on how well your activities are being received.

YOUR DUTIES

As the EXECUTIVE VICE PLEASIDENT FOR GLOBAL HAPPINESS (EVP GH), you’ll develop and carry out campaigns and initiatives that bring joy and contentment to as many people around the world as possible. Other tasks include keeping an eye on the impact that your activities are having, working hard to get your message across and – if possible – laying strong foundations so that happy vibes continue to be sent out even without your input. That means forming alliances with others, creating networks and turning your efforts into a bona fide movement that people can get behind.

WHAT WE EXPECT FROM YOU

For this position, we aren’t interested in how well you did at school or what grades you managed to get. What we want to see is the way you spread joy, what your plans are for promoting positivity and why you in particular are the right person for the job. You see, we spread happiness through our bags – but we’re counting on you to do the rest.

YOUR WORKLOAD AND WORKING HOURS

Your time in the role, workload, place of work and the additional resources you need all depend on your idea and how you’re going to go about putting it into practice. You could spend every morning sitting at a desk at our headquarters for nine months straight, work for an hour each evening from a different location entirely, or even manage to pull off your grand plan in just a couple of days with fantastic results – we don’t mind. You decide.

The only condition we have is that you should get the ball rolling in 2019 – our anniversary year. We’ve already put around CHF 100,000 aside for you to use as you see fit.
