Zurich, Zurich, Switzerland • On-site
Sign up with Clera and we'll reach out the moment a role actually fits you — no more spraying applications into the void.
Build the commercial foundation and growth engine for a new Swiss wealth management venture. This includes designing the go-to-market strategy, developing introducer channels, and optimizing client acquisition KPIs.
Requires 5+ years of experience in financial services with a proven track record of scaling business units. A university degree in finance or economics is required, with advanced certifications like CFA or MBA preferred.
Axelra is a Swiss tech venture builder that turns digital business models into operating companies.
We are looking for an exceptional Head of Business Development & Sales to take a leading role in a new venture in next-generation financial services, backed by experienced industry experts and powered by leading operational and technology partners.
We are building the first fully integrated financial advisor for private clients, combining independent advice, holistic financial planning, evidence-based investment management, and a hybrid digital-and-human client experience.
We are running this search confidentially and will share the company name and the full backing with you in a first conversation.
You will join the launch team of an innovative company in the large Swiss wealth management market at an early stage, actively shape its development, and participate in long-term value creation, including through equity participation.
This is a rare opportunity to shape the growth model, brand and client-acquisition approach of an independent, technology-enabled Swiss wealth-management platform from the ground up. The role suits a commercially driven builder who combines strategic thinking, relationship-building and hands-on execution.
Your mission is to build the commercial foundation of the venture: a repeatable, scalable, and measurable way to attract the right clients, convert them efficiently, and support long-term growth.
You will focus on trusted introducers, partnerships, digital acquisition and disciplined sales execution, taking the venture from launch to scale.
You will help validate and optimize key commercial KPIs, including AUM growth, CAC, CLV, conversion rates, channel productivity, and client acquisition payback.
We are not looking for a manager, advisor, or consultant. We are looking for someone who genuinely wants to build.

We would love to hear from you. Please apply via Join.com and attach your CV and a short note explaining why you are excited to build a new model for integrated financial advisory in Switzerland.
We review applications on a rolling basis and aim to come back to you within 5 working days. The process is deliberately light: an intro call, a deeper conversation about the venture and your approach, and a meeting with the founders you would be working with.
We intend to fill this position without the involvement of external recruiting or placement companies.
