Zurich, Schweiz University of Zürich, Center for Sustainable Finance and Private Wealth Vollzeit

The Center for Sustainable Finance and Private Wealth (CSP) is an academic research and teaching institution at the University of Zurich. We work at the intersection of research, wealth owners, and investment professionals to generate knowledge and mobilize capital toward sustainable development and growth. Also called impact.

Located at the Department of Banking and Finance at University of Zurich, we are a spin-off from a related research and training program at the Initiative for Responsible Investment (IRI) at Harvard Kennedy School and the former Center for Microfinance at the University of Zurich. We are deeply connected with the research, practitioner, and network community in the global impact space (for example, World Economic Forum, MIT, Oxford University, The ImPact, toniic, Co-Impact) and collaborate in the form of join events, campaigns, and practitioner research.

As our Student Assistant, you will be responsible for a variety of administrative tasks connected to the internal operations and events of the CSP. Your tasks will include event management support, team culture-related tasks, data entry and CRM management, finance administration, and more.

Representative tasks include: booking venues and hotels, registering and communicating with participants, acting as the coordination point for speakers, arranging print-outs, IT coordination, being onsite during events for logistics support (e.g., liaising with catering providers, distributing handouts, IT set-up), tracking revenues and expenses, and sending swag to participants.
- Event-management for internal team events, including booking venues and catering, coordinating with the team, and seeking and coordinating with external experts to run workshops.
- CRM management, including entering contacts and administering projects in the system.
