Build a business.
Shape a market.
Leave a legacy.
Most Country Head roles involve managing an existing business.
This one doesn’t.
Our client is a leading pan‑European investment management intelligence and engagement platform entering one of the most exciting chapters of its growth journey.
Germany is a strategic priority, and we’re looking for an entrepreneurial leader to establish and grow the business from the ground up.
This is a rare opportunity to combine commercial leadership with genuine entrepreneurship—building strategic partnerships across the German investment management industry while shaping the future of a highly respected European platform.
Why this opportunity?
This is considerably more than a Country Head appointment.
You’ll have the opportunity to: Launch and build the German business from day one.
Open and establish the Frankfurt office.
Develop strategic partnerships with leading domestic and international asset managers.
Build trusted relationships across Germany’s buy‑side ecosystem.
Recruit and lead the future German team, supported from the outset by an experienced Sales Director.
Influence the firm’s wider European growth strategy.
Initially, this is a player‑coach position.
You’ll personally drive commercial growth, establish strategic partnerships and position the business as a trusted partner to the German investment community.
As the business grows, you’ll recruit, mentor and lead the local team while helping shape the long‑term strategy for Germany.
Qualifications A well‑established and trusted network across Germany’s investment management ecosystem, including fund selectors, CIOs, investment teams, private banks, wealth managers and other senior investment decision‑makers.
Proven Asset Management Business Development Track Record.
Significant business development experience within the asset management industry, with a demonstrable track record of building strategic partnerships, generating sustainable revenue growth and developing long‑term client relationships.
Entrepreneurial Player‑Coach Mindset.
A hands‑on leader who enjoys building businesses rather than inheriting them.
Comfortable leading from the front while laying the foundations for a scalable, high‑performing organisation.
Strategic Commercial Acumen.
The ability to identify market opportunities, translate strategy into execution and build trusted partnerships with senior stakeholders.
Commercially driven, relationship‑focused and passionate about creating long‑term value.
Fluent German and English.
Why join?
The investment management industry is evolving.
Success today is increasingly driven by strategic partnerships, market intelligence, thought leadership and meaningful engagement—not simply traditional sales.
Our client is at the forefront of this evolution.
Backed by a successful European platform and a long‑term commitment to Germany, this is an opportunity to help shape the next phase of growth in one of Europe’s most important investment management markets.
If you’re excited by the idea of building a business, influencing strategy and leaving a lasting mark, we’d love to have a confidential conversation.
Please note We are specifically seeking individuals with substantial asset management experience and an established network within the German investment management industry.
Candidates without a proven asset management background are unlikely to be considered. #J-18808-Ljbffr
