Senior Private Banker – Middle Eastern Markets

Location: Geneva or Zurich, Switzerland

Trust is your greatest asset. The right platform should protect it.

Exceptional private banking relationships are rarely built quickly. They are earned over years through sound judgement, discretion and an unwavering commitment to clients.

Across the Middle East, trusted advisers frequently become long-term partners to entrepreneurial families, family offices and business owners whose financial interests span multiple jurisdictions. As those clients become increasingly international, they expect broader capabilities, sophisticated financing solutions and seamless cross-border execution.

At some point, every experienced private banker asks an important question:

Does my current platform still enable me to deliver the highest standard of advice to my clients?

As DES Capital continues to advise leading private banks and independent wealth managers across Switzerland and internationally, we have been exclusively retained to identify accomplished Senior Private Bankers serving GCC and wider Middle Eastern markets for a select number of confidential executive appointments.

The Opportunity

Our clients are seeking professionals with established relationships across the Gulf and broader Middle East.

Depending on the institution, these appointments may provide:

• A globally recognised private banking platform

• Market-leading lending and structured financing capabilities

• Sophisticated investment and wealth planning solutions

• International booking centres

• Leadership opportunities and long-term franchise development

These appointments are designed for advisers seeking a stronger platform from which to serve existing clients—not simply a different employer.

You May Recognise Yourself

Your reputation has been built on trust rather than transactions.

You advise entrepreneurial families with discretion, cultural awareness and long-term perspective.

You believe relationships should outlast market cycles, and that the institution behind you should strengthen—not limit—the advice you provide.

Why Exceptional Professionals Move

The strongest private bankers rarely move for compensation alone.

They move when another institution enables them to create greater value for their clients through broader capabilities, deeper expertise and a clearer long-term vision.

Executive Remuneration

Depending on the institution and the strength of the client franchise, fixed annual remuneration typically ranges between CHF 350,000 and CHF 500,000, complemented by highly competitive long-term incentive arrangements .

For exceptional professionals, total annual remuneration may substantially exceed CHF 1 million.

Absolute Confidentiality

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

Your identity and information will never be shared with any institution without your explicit prior authorisation.

Every important client relationship begins with a conversation.

So does every important career decision.

If you believe another platform could better serve both you and your clients, we would welcome a confidential discussion.
