Investment banking is the backbone of financing and capital market activities. At the same time, global markets are among the most dynamic and volatile business areas: trading, brokerage and treasury react to market movements in seconds. Swiss banks must ensure liquidity and interest rate management, meet regulatory requirements and integrate digital platforms – while developing new products and global trading strategies.
The demands placed on managers are enormous. They must bear P&L responsibility, embed a risk culture and, at the same time, exploit commercial opportunities, often in strategic alignment with other divisions of the integrated financial institution. The ability to balance speed and governance and develop teams in an environment that is constantly changing is particularly critical. We are looking for individuals who combine strategic thinking, market expertise and leadership.
Wirz & Partners supports banks in filling key roles in investment banking and global markets. Our structured search process examines commercial impact, risk management and cultural fit. We deliver candidates who not only achieve short-term results, but also create sustainable structures – from corporate lending to derivatives trading.
