Chief Executive Officer – Private Bank & Wealth Management

Location: Switzerland

Every institution reaches a moment when leadership determines its future.

The defining decisions in private banking are rarely made in the dealing room. They are made in the boardroom.

The appointment of a Chief Executive Officer shapes far more than financial performance. It influences culture, talent, client confidence and the long-term direction of the institution itself.

DES Capital has been exclusively retained by leading private banks and independent wealth managers to identify exceptional Chief Executive Officers for a select number of confidential executive appointments.

The Opportunity

These appointments are intended for accomplished leaders with the vision, commercial judgement and credibility to guide established institutions through their next phase of growth.

Responsibilities may include:

• Defining long-term corporate strategy

• Leading Executive Committees and senior management teams

• Driving sustainable growth in assets, revenues and profitability

• Recruiting and developing exceptional leadership talent

• Working closely with shareholders and Boards of Directors

• Identifying strategic growth opportunities and partnerships

• Strengthening the institution's position domestically and internationally

These are opportunities to shape institutions that will endure for decades.

You May Recognise Yourself

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

You understand that sustainable growth is created through exceptional people, thoughtful leadership and long-term strategic thinking.

Why CEOs Move

Exceptional Chief Executive Officers rarely move for compensation alone.

They move when another organisation offers the opportunity to create greater long-term impact, lead a stronger platform and leave a lasting legacy.

Executive Remuneration

Compensation is individually structured to reflect the strategic importance of each appointment and typically includes a highly competitive fixed remuneration, long-term incentives and, where appropriate, equity or participation opportunities.

For exceptional executives leading significant institutions, total annual remuneration frequently exceeds CHF 1 million.

Absolute Confidentiality

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

Your profile will never be shared 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 an even greater long-term impact, we would welcome a confidential discussion.
