- Location: Lausanne
Company Description
Evooq is the operating system for modern wealth management. We bring risk analytics, investment advice, structured products and compliance into a single, seamless flow — so wealth managers can focus on clients, not complexity. Backed by J.P. Morgan and trusted by private banks, asset managers and tier-1 institutions across Europe and Asia, we’re a fast-growing Swiss software company on a mission to make the hardest parts of wealth management feel effortless.
Our product suite spans the Evooq Wealth Platform for banks, Elus for structured products, and Edgelab for multi-asset risk analytics. If you’ve ever wanted to sell technology that genuinely changes how financial institutions operate — this is it.
Job Description
The Role
We’re looking for a Senior Sales Executive to drive new business across private banks, asset managers and tier-1 banks in the DACH region and beyond. You will own the full sales cycle — from generating your own pipeline to negotiating and closing multi-year enterprise deals — and become a trusted advisor to C-suite stakeholders at some of the most sophisticated financial institutions in the world.
This is a high-impact, high-autonomy role. You’ll be working with a product that is genuinely best-in-class, and you’ll have the support of an experienced pre-sales, product and executive team to help you win.
What You’ll Do
- Own the end-to-end sales cycle for new logo acquisition — prospecting, qualifying, demoing, proposing, negotiating and closing — with deal sizes typically ranging from CHF 300K to CHF 2M+ ARR.
- Build and manage a healthy pipeline of opportunities across private banks, tier-1 banks and asset managers in your territory, primarily DACH with potential for broader European coverage.
- Develop deep relationships with decision-makers at the C-suite, CTO, CIO and Head of Wealth Management level.
- Partner with pre-sales and product specialists to deliver compelling, client-specific demonstrations and proof-of-concepts.
- Contribute to shaping Evooq’s go-to-market strategy, competitive positioning and pricing in collaboration with the CRO and product leadership.
- Represent Evooq at industry conferences, forums and client events — becoming a recognisable voice in the WealthTech ecosystem.
- Feed market intelligence back to product and leadership to ensure our roadmap stays ahead of client needs.

- An existing network of senior relationships at private banks, asset managers or universal banks in Switzerland and/or DACH.
