Executive Search · Wealth Management · Switzerland

One specialty: wealth management.

An executive search house dedicated exclusively to wealth management — across Switzerland and the international corridor of Swiss wealth.

Some firms cover every industry. Hunkar Finance covers one: wealth management. Private banking, external asset management, family offices — across Switzerland from Geneva to Zurich, and along the corridor where Swiss wealth actually flows: Luxembourg, Monaco, Dubai, Singapore.

“Placing a candidate is a craft. Revealing the alchemy between a talent and an institution is an art.”

The roles we cover

  • Senior Private Bankers & Relationship Managers — all markets: Swiss Onshore, Middle East, LatAm, Europe, CIS
  • Team Heads, desk heads and market leaders — including entire teams moving together
  • Senior management — heads of private banking, heads of location
  • The specialists around the banker — investment advisory, wealth planning, senior compliance

Our reading of the Swiss market

Three convictions guide our work. First, the war for proven talent is structural, not cyclical: platforms are growing faster than the pool of bankers with portable, compliant books — which is why the packages we negotiate typically carry base salaries of CHF 250,000–400,000 and total compensations beyond CHF 1 million. Second, the EAM segment keeps rising: Switzerland’s external asset managers are professionalising fast, and hiring accordingly. Third, moves succeed on fit, not on figures: portability, booking capabilities, credit appetite and management culture decide more careers than any signing bonus — so these are the questions we resolve before any introduction.

A deliberately reversed approach

We begin with the candidate, not the mandate. Your objectives first, then the seats that serve them — with complete accompaniment: salary negotiation handled for you, personalised follow-up after engagement, coaching whenever useful. We are rewarded on the candidate’s success, not at hiring.

Confidentiality is not a promise

It is the DNA of the house. We work with the leaders of the market — they expect nothing less. Current mandates are on hunkarfinance.ch; the best seats are never advertised.
