After training as a retail employee, Kadir worked in retail for a few more years. In 2013, when he joined Promotion Tools AG as a Recruiting Specialist, he discovered his passion for people and organization. Having worked for employers in various industries, he has become familiar with all aspects of human resources and has built up a large network in the HR community, which he regularly draws on. Kadir is characterized, among other things, by an exceptionally high level of flexibility and commitment. He has, of course, undergone many further training courses, most recently with the HR Specialist Certificate and SVEB Module 1. And the journey is not over yet…!

As a career changer, he has seized every opportunity in recent years and has repeatedly mastered intermittent challenges. Thanks to his high level of IT affinity, he uses a wide range of IT tools efficiently and, as a power user, can support customers in their operation and provide training for teams. This makes him a self-starter who finds his way around new environments independently and becomes productive very quickly. Kadir is proactive and fully committed to his tasks and to his customers.

Transparency, humanity and a lot of pragmatism in cooperation are important values for Kadir. As a flexible, solution- and service-oriented personality, he is perceived as a calm and thoughtful sparring partner even in hectic situations, who always takes his team along with him. Kadir is an open person who enjoys working in groups. He is characterized in particular by a very high level of customer orientation, an extremely calm manner, as well as stamina and resilience.

Kadir’s heart beats for engines. In summer, he likes to ride his Harley a lot, so he lets his head air out. The tours always include mountains and bodies of water, which he likes to capture with his Insta X360 Cam. He spends his free time with friends and family, for example barbecuing with a cool head and a cool drink in his hand. This gives him new ideas and recharges his batteries.

HR Unlimited AG is an owner-managed company specializing in interim management based in Glattpark Opfikon, Switzerland, and has been offering such assignments in Switzerland and abroad for more than 23 years.

Benjamin Roth started his professional career by training as a businessman in the tax sector, moved into the software development industry and then worked in finance and controlling for an IT service provider. This brought him into contact with HR topics, which aroused his enthusiasm due to the interface between people and organization. He was given the opportunity to rebuild and manage HR within the company. Through his central role in a company-wide transformation program, Benjamin accompanied the introduction of agile working methods and new forms of organization, which still fascinate him. He complemented this experience with a CAS in Business Transformation Management.

Benjamin holds a bachelor’s degree in business administration with a specialization in process management. He knows how to rethink processes and transfer analog workflows into digital ones, drawing on his experience in the software development industry and the introduction of various software solutions. Benjamin is perceived as an HR sparring partner who communicates transparently, keeps an eye on the “big picture” and works in a solution-oriented manner.

Although he is perceived as a balanced and emphatic person, his rational, analytical approach is a characteristic that has stayed with him from his time in finance and IT and characterizes his structured approach.

In his private life, Benjamin enjoys being out in nature, hiking in summer or skiing in winter. His great passion is boating, whether on the lake or the sea. As an ocean-going skipper, he has been going on cruises for many years, constantly exploring new waters in Europe. This passion has one thing in common with interim management, which fascinates Benjamin both on the water and in the office: Taking responsibility in stormy times, calming situations and steering the ship into safe harbor.

Gramoz is a proven specialist in the area of payroll with a wide range of experience in national and international companies. His expertise includes knowledge in the areas of payroll, social security, labor law, Abacus and international assignments, complemented by a strong affinity for IT.

His professional journey began with a basic commercial apprenticeship in the freight forwarding industry. However, he discovered his true passion for payrolling in 2016 when he worked as an HR administrator at GPS AG and realized his affinity for numbers and IT tools as well as his great interest in social insurance and payroll. This realization led him to switch to the payroll team after just one year in HR administration. From this point on, he continued his education, including a degree in social insurance and leadership qualifications, which further deepened his expertise and leadership skills.

Over the years, Gramoz has led major digitalization projects, including the implementation of Abacus, the introduction of AbaClik (expense tool) and Payroll with Abacus, as well as project management for the introduction of HRM systems (UKA Solutions & Carema). His ability to adapt quickly to new technologies and software, as well as his up-to-date knowledge of legislative changes in the area of payroll & social security, make him a valued expert in his field.

Gramoz’s personal work philosophy, which is characterized by a deep focus on detail and the constant questioning of his work and processes, drives him to always achieve a high level of precision and efficiency in his work. This philosophy, combined with his analytical ability and zeal, has made him a dedicated and determined professional.

Outside of his professional life, Gramoz is passionate about football. He attaches great importance to his family life and enjoys spending time with his spouse and daughter. Relaxing vacations at the beach together offer him and his family the perfect opportunity to switch off from everyday life and strengthen their close bond.

It is with great pleasure that I took over the position of Managing Director of HR Unlimited AG on January 1, 2024, succeeding Andreas Biel, who announced his retirement on December 31, 2023. He founded the company around 23 years ago, so I look back on his impressive work with great respect and am aware of the big footsteps he is leaving behind. However, anyone who knows me knows that nothing throws me off course so quickly. I have always been proactive and courageous in tackling new things and I go my own way with focus and great passion. This recipe has worked very well so far and I’m applying it again now.

The coming months will undoubtedly be an exciting time of transition. I am firmly convinced that we will overcome this challenge together as a team and that opportunities will arise as a result. I am very proud of the team that we have built up over the past few years with great sensitivity. Our common goal remains to keep HR Unlimited on course, to continue to grow and at the same time to offer sustainable solutions in the field of interim management. The past has taught us that change is a natural and necessary development in order to be successful in the dynamic business world. And so we have been on the road since 2024 with our adapted strategy and our jointly defined purpose, which is: “Our interim managers fill gaps with excellence, passion and authenticity”.

For me personally, this takeover marks a significant step in my professional development. I look forward to working with each and every one of you with joy and enthusiasm. Our team is our greatest asset and I am convinced that together we can reach new heights. We see this change as an opportunity to bring a breath of fresh air into our company. With team spirit, excitement and positive energy, we will continue to “rock” the interim world.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank Andreas Biel for his tireless efforts. His vision has not only shaped the company, but also us as a team. To conclude, I would like to quote Andreas Biel, who wrote in the last HR Unlimited News: “So let us remain committed to HR Unlimited with an alert mind and grateful that clients entrust us with their interim mandates – it cannot be taken for granted!”.

With this in mind, here’s to a wonderful 2024 and best wishes,

Tanja Biel

Dear Readers
Switzerland’s dual education system is a prime example of the combination of theoretical education and practical application. In this blog post, we would like to take a closer look at this successful model and how it lays the foundation for highly qualified professionals and future leaders.

An insight into the dual education system
The dual education system is a masterpiece of educational excellence. It combines learning at a vocational school with practical work in a company. This allows learners to be immersed in the world of professional practice from the very beginning and to apply their theoretical knowledge on an ongoing basis. This close link between educational institutions and companies creates professionals who, in addition to theoretical knowledge, also have the ability to successfully apply this knowledge in the real business world.

Advantages for companies
The dual education system in Switzerland is not only a benefit for learners, but also for companies. By integrating learners into their daily work, companies gain committed and highly motivated employees who are integrated into the corporate culture from the very beginning. This promotes the identification of young adults with the company and brings fresh ideas and perspectives into the company.
The path to a bachelor’s or master’s degree. Once they have successfully completed their apprenticeship, young people are free to plan their future careers. After obtaining the vocational baccalaureate, the exciting journey in the dual education system can continue. From a bachelor’s degree to a master’s or doctorate, everything is possible.

Shaping the future
The dual education system in Switzerland is more than just an educational concept – it is an engine for innovation and leadership. Companies that invest in this system and take learners all the way to a bachelor’s or master’s degree are banking on a future generation of leaders who not only have extensive expertise, but also the ability to adapt to the challenges of an ever-changing business and economic world.
At a time when agility and innovation are more in demand than ever, we can learn valuable lessons from the Swiss dual education system. It is the combination of knowledge and practice that not only produces excellent professionals, but also lays the foundation for companies to successfully navigate into the future.
With this in mind, we invite you to use Switzerland’s dual education system as a source of inspiration and to invest in learners. Because today’s learners will be tomorrow’s leaders.

With that in mind, we wish you a relaxing and sunny summer vacation! We’ll be back in September with our regular blog posts on our website. Of course, we will continue to deliver the popular HR Unlimited Fact Tuesday stories every Tuesday.

Your HR Unlimited Team

I am an interim manager in the field of human resources. And I am a photographer who shoots weddings. I do both with passion and great commitment. First there was human resources work, for more than 30 years. Five years ago, I added photographing people.

Even though personnel management and wedding photography seem very different at first glance, there are still some similarities.

Both fields require a high attention to detail, great professionalism and the ability to respond to the needs and wishes of the client. In both cases, it is important to build a good relationship with the client and maintain open communication.

As an interim manager, I am successful when I approach challenges quickly and flexibly and become part of the team in an uncomplicated way. When I photograph weddings, the experience and strengths I have gained through my work in HR management help me: having the right perspective, understanding the situation in the moment and acting appropriately.

My clients benefit from the influence of my two passions – HR work and photography – and my expertise can thus develop to its fullest.
