Business Development / Partnerships - USA

We're partnering with a high-growth digital asset trading and liquidity firm seeking a Business Development professional to help expand its institutional footprint across the U.S.

The firm operates across proprietary trading, liquidity provision, OTC markets, and structured trading solutions, working with a wide range of counterparties throughout the digital asset ecosystem. The team is composed of experienced crypto-native professionals with deep expertise across trading, market structure, and digital asset infrastructure.

This is an opportunity to join at a pivotal stage of growth. Rather than stepping into a mature organization with a large commercial team already in place, you'll play an active role in helping shape the firm's U.S. expansion efforts, influence its go-to-market strategy, and build key institutional relationships from the ground up.

Responsibilities

  • Develop new relationships across the institutional digital asset landscape
  • Identify and close partnership opportunities with exchanges, trading firms, funds, token issuers, and other market participants
  • Manage opportunities from initial outreach through negotiation and execution
  • Partner closely with traders to design solutions that address client objectives
  • Expand existing relationships and uncover additional revenue opportunities
  • Represent the firm at industry conferences, events, and meetings
  • Provide market feedback and client insights to help inform commercial strategy
Who We're Looking For (Required*)
  • Prior experience at a market maker or OTC desk*
  • U.S. work authorization*
  • Experience within digital assets, institutional trading, market structure, or financial markets
  • Background in business development, partnerships, institutional sales, account management, or client coverage
  • Strong understanding of crypto markets and institutional participants
  • Ability to build relationships and navigate complex commercial discussions
  • Experience working with counterparties such as hedge funds, asset managers, exchanges, market makers, trading firms, or token projects
  • Existing industry network strongly preferred

Relevant Backgrounds

Candidates currently working in areas such as:

  • Market Making
  • OTC Trading
  • Prime Brokerage
  • Institutional Sales
  • Digital Asset Trading
  • Liquidity Solutions
  • Exchange Partnerships
  • Ecosystem Growth

Why Join?

  • Work alongside a highly experienced team of traders and crypto industry professionals
  • Opportunity to be a key commercial hire during an important growth phase
  • Direct exposure to traders and senior leadership
  • Ability to influence the firm's U.S. growth strategy and market presence
  • Significant ownership, autonomy, and visibility
  • Exposure to a broad range of institutional digital asset market participants
  • Competitive compensation with strong upside potential
  • Fully remote within the United States

If you're interested in building relationships across the institutional crypto ecosystem and want the opportunity to take on more responsibility, apply here to be considered for the role.
