The posting

Are you an avid Business & Risk Manager who wants to make an impact? In our role you act as the operational and control backbone for the region. You bridge front-office teams with Zurich central functions (Finance, HR, Risk, Compliance, Legal) by translating regional strategy into budgets, staffing plans, and rigorous first-line controls.

The role splits roughly 40% business management, 40% first-line risk and control, and 20% regulatory readiness.

What would your role be?

1. Business Management & Planning (40%)

  • Financial Oversight: Build and track regional budgets (revenue, cost, headcount) with monthly variance analysis.
  • Resource Strategy: Develop forecasting models, resource plans, and headcount proposals with HR.
  • Management Reporting: Produce regional KPI scorecards (revenue, net new money, cost/income ratio, pipeline capacity).
  • Strategic Execution: Implement group-wide cost initiatives, process changes, and system rollouts locally.

2. First-Line Risk & Control (40%)

  • Control Framework: Own, run, and document the regional first-line control framework.
  • AML & KYC Oversight: Monitor onboarding files, KYC/EDD quality, and periodic reviews; escalate compliance gaps early.
  • Incident Management: Track operational errors, incidents, and client complaints; lead root-cause analysis and remediation.
  • Audit Coordination: Coordinate internal/external audits and drive audit findings through full closure.
  • RCSA & KRIs: Maintain the regional Risk and Control Self-Assessment (RCSA) and report Key Risk Indicators (KRIs) to leadership.

3. Regulatory Readiness (20%)

  • Regulatory Implementation: Support the rollout of regulatory strategies (e.g., CRD VI implementation).
  • Compliance Standards: Oversee mandatory staff training and certifications.
  • Inspections: Prepare and support the region for regulatory reviews and inspections.

What are we looking for?

  • 8–12 years in Swiss private banking or wealth management (COO office, business management, or 1st-line risk/control).
  • Deep understanding of FINMA circulars, AMLA/AMLO, and cross-border rules.
  • Proven financial budgeting, forecasting, variance analysis, and advanced Excel/PowerPoint capabilities.
  • Track record of managing strategic group-level projects or system rollouts.
  • Highly credible with senior front-office bankers, with the ability to constructively challenge when necessary.
  • Highly rigorous, structured, discreet, and capable of working independently across multiple sites.
  • Fluent in French and English; working knowledge of German is strongly preferred for Zurich collaboration.
  • Experience with GCC/Middle East clients or the External Asset Manager (EAM) segment is a plus.

What we offer

  • Top Geneva location
  • Friendly, diverse team in an open-office space with modern equipment.
  • All the latest technology to help you excel and advance.
  • Agile environment in how we think, the way we work and our trust for each other.
  • Flat hierarchy with collaboration on all levels.
  • Campus feeling and collaborative spirit.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
