    CEO f/m

    We are looking for an experienced, young and dynamic CEO.

    Compet Medical AG is a company that has been successfully developing, manufacturing, and distributing medical devices for harm reduction for over 30 years. All our medical devices meet maximum safety requirements. Our products provide maximum assistance for survival, and our desire is to always respect human dignity and health. Compet Medical AG succeeded early on in developing a special harm reduction filter and producing it inexpensively. The medical device market has changed significantly over the years. The production of disposable products was outsourced from Europe to the Far East. In order to withstand the price war, Compet Medical AG was also forced to adapt to market conditions. In other words, a second supplier for each of our products comes from China.
