Meet Melissa
I believe every woman deserves a thriving and fulfilling career that fits her life - on her own terms.
After years of changing roles, professions (3 times!) and cities, I have finally found my calling. I love to support professional mid-career international women in Switzerland and beyond, to find and grow a career they love.
You've built a career. Now you're ready for what's next. Let's build it together.
If you're an international professional woman in Switzerland figuring out your next move, whether that's restarting after a break, wanting to try something new, or stepping up into a bigger role, you're in the right place.
I'm Melissa Birchler, a certified career and Gallup Strengths Coach. I know this journey first-hand. I've lived it myself as an international woman in Switzerland, which is why I founded Birchler Career Consulting.
I combine strengths-based coaching with practical career and personal branding strategies that actually work in the Swiss job market. I also bring insights from:
my Masters in Career Counselling (in progress) at the ZHAW
more than 200 hours of ICF-accredited coach training
my outplacement work with global firm LHH
years of experience as a Senior PR and Communication Strategist.
