Job Description

Role Overview

We are looking for a highly capable and independent professional to serve as the first operational hire for our newly established Swiss entity. This role will be responsible for setting up, managing, and coordinating all administrative, regulatory, and operational activities in Switzerland, while ensuring full integration with the wider group's structures, standards, and processes.


As the central point of contact for all Swiss-related internal and external matters, the successful candidate will build the foundation for efficient operations, maintain regulatory compliance, and manage relationships with auditors, accounting firms, legal advisers, and group stakeholders.



This is a hands-on, multifaceted role suited for someone with strong experience in early-stage financial services businesses in Switzerland and the capability to work autonomously across a broad range of responsibilities.



The role is located in Zug, Switzerland and the chosen candidate will be expected to attend the office 3 days per week.

Manage daily administrative tasks, documentation, and internal controls. Oversee office logistics, service providers, and operational workflows. Ensure compliance with Swiss financial services regulations (FINMA, AML, corporate governance) with 3rd party guidance. Maintain compliance records, prepare regulatory submissions, and coordinate with group compliance. Liaise with auditors, accountants, legal advisers, and other external partners. Coordinate audits, statutory filings, and financial reporting processes. Support accounting, bookkeeping, budgeting, and financial reporting in collaboration with group finance and local accountants. Prepare board materials, minutes, resolutions, and maintain statutory documentation.

Required Experience & Qualifications

5+ years of experience in administration, operations, compliance, or legal coordination within Swiss financial services. Experience in early-stage or small-company environments, ideally as a first or foundational hire. Strong understanding of Swiss regulatory requirements (FINMA, AMLA, company law). Experience working with auditors, accountants, legal advisers, and external service providers. Ability to read and interpret contractual and legal documents. Proficiency in English and German. Familiarity with integrating a local entity into a wider group structure is a plus. A proactive, collaborative approach combined with high ethical standards.
