The Role
Senior individual contributor responsible for originating institutional OTC relationships, executing large-block trades, onboarding counterparties (KYC/AML), coordinating with trading/treasury/operations, and driving revenue across spot, stablecoin FX, and conversion products while representing the firm at regional industry events.
Summary Generated by Built In

Our client is a multi-jurisdictionally regulated institutional digital asset OTC brokerage — licensed in multiple jurisdictions to operating globally. The firm is well capitalised and institutionally backed.

They are seeking a few senior sales directors who are individual PnL contributor across three regions MENA, UK or APAC. The person will own their client portfolio end to end — originate relationships, execute large-block OTC trades, onboard institutional counterparties, and build long-term wallet share across spot, stablecoin FX, and digital asset conversion products. There is no team management responsibility.

  • Drive OTC client acquisition and revenue growth across exchanges, broker-dealers, funds, family offices, PSPs, and corporate treasuries.
  • Target other client verticals: licensed VASPs, remittance firms, gold traders, and importers/exporters for whom stablecoin settlement is a clear operational advantage.
  • Execute transactions and manage client relationships through the full lifecycle — from outreach through KYC onboarding to repeat volume.
  • Coordinate with trading, treasury, and operations on execution, settlement, and large block trade management.
  • Manage client KYC onboarding independently in line with regulatory standards and internal AML/CFT policies.
  • Represent the firm at regional conferences and industry events.

Requirements
  • 10+ years of work experience preferably in a combination of traditional finance and digital assets.
  • Experience in institutional OTC crypto sales, digital asset brokerage, or institutional sales at a licensed crypto exchange or trading platform.
  • Existing book of institutional relationships — exchanges, funds, family offices, PSPs, or corporate treasuries.
  • Able to independently manage full client KYC onboarding and counterparty due diligence.
  • Deep knowledge of OTC trading operations, stablecoin FX, fiat-to-crypto workflows, and blockchain settlement.
  • Conference-active and credible within the institutional digital asset ecosystem.
  • Background in FX, cross-border payments, or corporate treasury sales is a strong advantage.
  • Fluent English. Additional local market languages are preferred.
