About Stableton

Stableton is a globally leading, tech- and data-driven institutional investor in private blue-chip tech companies. We empower institutional investors, private banks, and wealth managers to benefit from the value creation of the world's most valuable technology companies through our unique, index-like portfolio and institutional thematic investment mandates. With our disruptive mindset, fast-paced culture, and track record of innovation, we are reshaping private market investing. With seven years of 100%+ annual growth, we are scaling globally — and we're just getting started.

About The Role

Reporting directly to the CEO, you will play a key role in turning strategy into action. You'll partner closely with the CEO, CFO, and executive leadership to tackle the company's hardest-to-overcome hurdles, ensuring our corporate priorities are well-defined, aligned across teams, and executed with speed and clarity. You'll serve as a strategic force multiplier and trusted advisor, operating as a "Swiss army knife" problem solver. This role is for someone who thrives in an environment where ownership, accountability, and continuous improvement are the norm. You'll challenge the status quo, optimize how we operate, and help leaders navigate complex challenges with a solutions-oriented mindset. This is not an administrative role—it's a strategic operating position with direct exposure to executive decision-making, board-level discussions, and company-defining initiatives.

Your Responsibilities

Strategic Initiative Leadership

• Drive execution of the CEO's top-priority initiatives, ensuring clear accountability and measurable impact
• Take ownership of multiple high-stakes projects and deliver business value through the creation, optimization, and maintenance of processes and products
• Identify new growth and revenue opportunities across existing and adjacent markets, conducting rigorous analysis and building business cases
• Lead key company initiatives, including new product launches, market expansion, and operational transformation programs

M&A, Business Development & Partnerships

• Support M&A activities from target identification through due diligence, deal execution, and post-merger integration
• Drive business development by identifying, evaluating, and negotiating strategic partnerships and commercial relationships

Operational Excellence, Executive Support & Cross-Functional Leadership

• Build and optimize scalable processes to support rapid growth, identify roadblocks, and facilitate resolutions with speed and efficiency
• Develop compelling narratives for internal and external stakeholders, including board materials, investor presentations, and executive communications
• Act as a trusted advisor to the CEO and leadership team, elevating insights on operations and strategic opportunities
• Work cross-functionally to connect the dots, streamline decision-making, coordinate with stakeholders, bringing teams together to solve problems and drive alignment

Requirements

Experience & Competencies

• 4+ years at a top-tier investment bank, management consulting firm (McKinsey, Bain, BCG, etc.), private equity fund, or similar elite institution
• Track record of outstanding achievement with strong analytical skills and ability to synthesize complex information into clear, compelling narratives for C-suite and board audiences
• Strategic thinking and cross-functional collaboration: Proven ability to drive initiatives, identify opportunities, and bring diverse teams together to solve problems in fast-paced environments

Personal Attributes

• Bias for action with ownership mentality: Take initiative, anticipate challenges, and take 100% responsibility for results
• Adaptability and "can-do" attitude: Pivot on the fly, thrive under pressure, and create high-quality work on quick timelines
• Team player with direct communication style: Low ego, high output; comfortable with candid feedback and see challenges as growth opportunities

Preferred

• MBA or advanced degree; experience working directly with CEO/C-Suite; background in fintech, financial services, private markets, or technology; M&A or business development experience
• While this could be an entirely remote position working European working hours, the ability to work from Zurich, Berlin, or Frankfurt is a plus.

Benefits

What We Offer

• Career-defining opportunity: Direct access to the CEO, co-founders, and executive team with insight into every strategic decision
• Impact & ownership: Shape the direction of a fast-growing, globally expanding company
• Exceptional team: Work alongside a hungry and driven team, and top talent from elite banks, consulting firms, and technology companies
• Competitive compensation: Base salary, performance bonus, equity participation, and comprehensive benefits
• Fast-paced culture: High-performance environment that values results, innovation, and continuous learning

Stableton is an equal opportunity employer. We celebrate diversity and are committed to creating an inclusive environment for all employees.
