Job Description

Ref 2585759 | Date: 16 Oct 2026

At Swissquote, we're all in. All in to shake things up. All in to build the bank people actually want to use. All in to make finance less boring --- and a lot more powerful. We're Switzerland's leading digital bank --- 1,400+ people across Europe, the Middle East and Asia, building real financial solutions for over a million clients worldwide. From trading and investing to everyday banking, we cover the full picture. We move fast, but we build things we're genuinely proud of.

Growing fast creates room. Room to try things, own things, and grow at a pace most places can't offer. Whether you like the spotlight or prefer to just put your head down and do great work, there's space for both here. We've ditched the dress code --- but never the chance to celebrate. Big win or small, we make it count.

As part of its ongoing organisational evolution, Swissquote is creating a new department, the Client Lifecycle Integrity (CLI) Department. Acting as line of defence and independent from the Front Office, the CLI brings together key activities supporting the integrity-related management of private client relationships throughout their lifecycle, from onboarding and periodic reviews to AML transaction monitoring.

In this context, the Head Client Lifecycle Integrity will play a key leadership role in shaping and implementing the new organisation. As a member of Senior Management and Director, the role is responsible for defining the CLI's strategic direction, establishing an effective operating model, driving a culture of continuous improvement and ensuring the successful integration of its different activities.

Key responsibilities:

1. Leadership, Governance & Stakeholder Management

   • Lead the CLI, defining its strategy, organisation, governance and priorities.
   • Maintain a strong, risk-based control environment.
   • Represent the CLI at Senior Management and relevant governance bodies.

2. Client Onboarding & Lifecycle Management

   • Oversee private client onboarding and lifecycle activities.
   • Ensure compliant and efficient execution of integrity-related lifecycle activities.

3. Process Effectiveness & Continuous Improvement

   • Enhance the effectiveness of CLI processes, focusing on optimisation and automation.
   • Work closely with technology functions to deliver improvements across client onboarding and lifecycle management.

Qualifications

• 10+ years of professional experience in a leadership position in Operations, Compliance, AML, Risk Management or similar functions.
• Master's degree in Finance, Economics, Law, Business Administration or equivalent.
• Proven track record in process optimisation and operational excellence.
• Native French or English speaker, with full professional fluency in the other language.
