Hi Poppy,
Welcome to Switzerland! Check out glocals.com to make friends to go on outings and out to dinner and drinks or dancing.
I don't know what your works schedule is like, nor if this may be of interest to you, but I organize a book swap the first Monday of each month. You can find it on Facebook under English Book Swap Zurich.
I hope you enjoy your stay in Switzerland!
