Welcome to the Forum :)

Non-EU/EFTA citizens will need to get a special residence permit with authorisation to work in Switzerland. This applies whether the employment contract is with a Swiss or a foreign company and whether the work is paid or unpaid and will need to speak either French, German or both.

Thanks for your reply.

Given that you are already in Basel, you seem to have some form of permission to stay here. In Switzerland none EU members are able to get work permits.
The HR of your employer will help you with that paperwork.
You could ask the airlines at Basel Airport for a job.
