Jobbeschreibung

Managing Director/Market Head – Private Banking

Great institutions are remembered for the leaders who build them.

Outstanding private banking businesses are not defined solely by assets under management or financial performance. They are defined by leadership, culture and the ability to attract exceptional professionals.

DES Capital has been exclusively retained by leading private banks and independent wealth managers to identify accomplished Managing Directors capable of leading established private banking franchises through their next phase of growth.

The Opportunity

These appointments are intended for senior executives with responsibility for commercial performance, talent development and strategic execution.

• Leading teams of Senior Private Bankers and Market Heads
• Driving sustainable growth in assets, revenues and profitability
• Recruiting and mentoring exceptional talent
• Working closely with Executive Management and the Board
• Expanding strategic international markets

These appointments offer the opportunity to shape an institution rather than simply manage a business unit.

What our clients expect you to bring

These are not caretaker appointments. Our clients expect a Market Head to arrive with business: your own client relationships, the bankers who would follow you, or both.

The relationships are yours. You built them, you hold them today, and they would follow you to an institution that serves them better.

You May Recognise Yourself

You have earned the confidence of colleagues, clients and shareholders through consistent judgement and disciplined execution.

You understand that leadership is measured not only by financial performance, but by the calibre of the people you attract, develop and retain.

Why Leaders Move

Exceptional executives rarely move because of compensation alone.

They move when another institution offers greater strategic influence, a stronger platform and the opportunity to create lasting value.

Executive Remuneration

Fixed annual remuneration typically ranges between CHF 350,000 and CHF 500,000, complemented by competitive long-term incentive arrangements. Total remuneration may substantially exceed CHF 1 million.

Absolute Confidentiality

Every confidential discussion is conducted personally by a Partner of DES Capital.

Your profile will never be shared with any institution without your explicit prior authorisation.

Every important leadership appointment begins with a conversation. So does every important career decision.

If you believe another platform would allow you to create greater long-term impact, we would welcome a confidential discussion.
