Why going for wage portage in Lausanne
Olympic capital, best small city in the world, one of the greenest cities in Europe… There is no shortage of praise for Lausanne, the capital of the canton of Vaud. Situated on the shores of Lake Geneva and just a stone’s throw from the mountains, the city is a tourist’s dream and attracts many expats looking for a human-sized city where rents are more affordable than in Geneva.
Lausanne is also the country’s fourth-largest city in terms of population and the economic centre of the canton of Vaud (the city is home to around 50% of the canton’s population and 60% of its jobs). What’s more, its geographical location is strategically ideal. Lausanne train station provides regular, fast connections to other major cities in Switzerland (and even neighbouring countries). As a consultant under wage portage in Lausanne, you won’t be isolated when you meet your clients, wherever they may be. It will take you around 40 minutes to get to Geneva, for example.
Although smaller and less important economically than Zurich or Geneva, Lausanne is still a great place to develop a consultancy business, thanks to its ideal location, its human scale and the ease with which you can flourish.
Are you considering becoming self-employed in Lausanne, to offer your expertise in the form of auditing or training? But are you put off by the red tape and complexity of self-employed status?
