Supporting every step of your private credit recruitment journey
Switzerland has become a strong centre for private credit. The market brings together global investors, specialist lenders, and finance professionals who value stability and access to high-quality deal flow. Selby Jennings operates within this environment, giving us direct access to talent that understands Swiss regulatory standards, local lending practices, and cross-border credit activity. This makes Switzerland a solid base for firms that need people who can operate in a precise and highly regulated credit market.
Diverse pool of private credit talent
Switzerland draws professionals from across Europe and broader global markets, creating a varied talent base in private credit, direct lending, and debt. Many candidates have experience with non-bank investments and international deal structures, which gives them a balanced view of risk and return. This range allows us to introduce individuals who meet technical expectations and fit comfortably into your organisation’s working style.
Specialised knowledge in private credit lending
Private credit in Switzerland demands familiarity with the needs of small and medium businesses, along with a firm grasp of direct lending structures, local regulations, and cross-border risks. We work with candidates who can run detailed credit assessments, structure transactions to suit Swiss market conditions, and manage portfolios with accuracy. This gives you access to professionals who bring clear strategic thinking alongside strong technical execution.
Personalised private credit recruitment
We shape each search around your hiring goals. Our coverage includes direct lending, mezzanine financing, distressed debt, and structured credit. We look at cultural alignment, long-term contribution, and the demands of operating in the Swiss financial market. This approach helps you build a team that can support growth and work effectively as market conditions shift.
Long-term partnerships
Our work continues past the initial hire. We provide guidance on compensation trends in Switzerland, diversity planning, and market developments that influence private credit. As your business evolves, we stay involved, helping you expand teams, identify future leaders, and adapt to new talent needs. This long-term view strengthens your ability to operate and grow within the Swiss private credit market.
