Watchmaking functions
Design
A new watch starts as a draft. In our Creative Center in Schaffhausen we expand on the typical IWC design for all our watch families. Together with our engineers and experienced watchmakers, new complications are developed and combined to make a beautifully finished product.
Supply Chain
Great watches require the best material available whether it is beautiful precious metals, high-quality straps or other parts that make a watch a real IWC timepiece. Our purchasers travel frequently to Western Switzerland and communicate in German, French and English. lf you are a bilingual professional, ideally an engineer, IWC’s supply chain management might be an interesting option for you.
Production
This is the heart of IWC! Experienced and enthusiastic watchmakers, surface specialists in our polishing department and many other trained specialists in our manufacture share the passion for perfection.
Quality
Nobody is perfect, but we want our timepieces to be! State-of-the-art testing and a lot of know-how is the basis of success of our quality management. If you have a keen eye for perfection, our perfect watches just might provide with you with the ultimate challenge.
Customer Service
An outstanding after-sales-service is key to long-term customer satisfaction. Whether a watch requires repairs, a new strap or a routine cleaning, our dedicated customer service provides state-of-the-art craftsmanship and a huge stock of spare parts- even for our earliest models. Customer service professionals are based in Schaffhausen but also around the globe in Dubai, Texas, Hong Kong or in other places where IWC watches are sold.
We are striving for perfection. Whether it is in the form of a timepiece, an internal process or a new design

ADMINISTRATIVE FUNCTIONS
We couldn’t fulfill the dreams of the watch connoisseurs without the help of our internal support functions such as finance, information technology (IT) or human resources (HR).
Finance

All three units are responsible for providing accurate data and meaningful reports to our senior management. This involves interaction with our worldwide subsidiaries and boutiques as well as with our Richemont Headquarter in Geneva.
