Christopher Jarke
Chief Financial Officer & COO

Christopher Jarke brings in more than 10 years of experience as CFO in two fast growing software-as-a-service (SaaS) companies. In this role he primarily focused on strategic -financial planning and fundraising to support the business as much as possible to make the companies develop from a promising startup to an established scaleup – bexio.com being one of them, where Christopher was responsible for the due diligence during the successful sale to die Mobiliar in 2018 and the later integration of bexio into the new parent company.

Prior to joining the startup/SaaS world in 2012, Christopher worked another more than 10 years in the corporate universe: He started his career in 1999 at Accenture where he initially worked in process optimization / system integration projects before he later changed to Accenture’s strategy division. As Manager Strategy at Accenture he “switched sites” and started a new position in 2008 as Associate Director Investment Banking Strategy at Macquarie’s branch in Zurich.
