Do you want to take a proven sales model to the next level and lead one of the most ambitious sales journeys in the financial industry?

Selected Group was founded in Denmark in 2016 and is an ambitious, rapidly growing wealth manager specializing in alternative investments. The company focuses on real assets, including solar and wind power, real estate, and green infrastructure.

With Management and a team of more than 30 professionals across Denmark, Sweden, Gibraltar, Luxembourg, and Switzerland, Selected Group is ensuring a strong international presence.
