Swisspassport holder, working in EU countries??

Hello i am an Australian with a Swiss passport. I would like to work in the UK... As an Australian i need a working Visa for UK, do i need one as a Swiss person. I have heard that there is an agreement between the two which allow Swiss to work without a Visa. Is this true??
Any info would help

Thanks

The short answer is no, no visa needed. Best place to look is http://www.workingintheuk.gov.uk/wor..._citizens.html
