Über uns

The AO is a medically guided, not-for-profit organization, a global network of surgeons, and the world's leading education, innovation, and research organization specializing in the surgical treatment of trauma and musculoskeletal disorders. We are home to people from all over the world, from different backgrounds, with diverse talents and specialist areas. What binds us together is our passion for excellence, our dedication to our mission of improving patient care, and our understanding that we are stronger together: we are one AO.

Our AO headquarters are located in Davos, Switzerland. Switzerland is a highly desirable destination for international job seekers. In addition to its outstanding natural environment, it has one of the highest standards of living in the world, political stability, and a very low unemployment rate.

Whereas most of our workforce operates from our headquarters in Davos, we also offer attractive hybrid employment models (depending on operational requirements) and, in 2022, inaugurated a new, state-of-the-art office in Zizers, just an hour’s train journey away from Zurich. Additionally, some of our staff operate from our international offices in Bogotá, Curitiba, Hong Kong, Shanghai, and Pennsylvania.
