About the role

Who we are

Great sound has the power to transform everyday moments into extraordinary experiences. Through the iconic Sennheiser brand, we develop premium headphones, earbuds, and audio solutions that enable people around the world to connect more deeply with music, entertainment, and the world around them.

Driven by curiosity, creativity, and collaboration, we foster an environment where people are empowered to take ownership, bring ideas to life, and make a meaningful impact on products enjoyed by millions of consumers worldwide.

In March 2026, Sonova announced its decision to divest its Consumer Hearing business and initiated a structured divestment process. This marks an exciting new chapter for the business and offers unique opportunities to contribute to its development and continued success.

Join us and help shape the future of premium audio experiences.
