Aged 49, married and mother of three children, the winner will occupy her new position from February 1, 2025. She will replace Nicoletta della Valle, departing chef who, praised by the government for her commitment over 10 years, attracted the attention recently by the big leak of computer data from the service provider Xplain and its severance pay of some 340,000 francs.

Which raises some questions. “I do not comment on the selection processes, which are confidential to ensure the protection of the personality of the candidates,” Beat Jans reacted soberly.
