Multi-strategy alternatives house seeking a CIO to steward allocation across private credit, secondaries and a growing real-assets book.
The brief
Meridian is a Zurich-based alternatives platform with $14bn in committed capital. The founding partners want a CIO who can impose a single investment language across private credit, secondaries and real assets, and who will sit with the IC rather than above it.
This is not a figurehead seat. The CIO will hire two sector heads, reset the risk framework, and represent the firm with a small group of European family offices.
What we are looking for
Partner-level investing experience; a record of building an IC process; fluency in German or French is an advantage; Swiss work authorisation or a clear path to it.
