This role provides senior operational leadership for institutional digital asset custody and transaction processing, operating within a broader Digital Asset Operations function that spans multiple products and platforms. The VP is accountable for execution excellence, risk management, team oversight, and continuous improvement in a highly regulated and rapidly evolving environment.
In this role, you will make an impact in the following ways:
- Providing operational leadership for digital asset custody and tokenization activities, ensuring accurate, timely, and resilient processing for institutional clients.
- Owning end-to-end operational workflows across custody, settlement, reconciliations, and exception management, with clear accountability for outcomes and controls.
- Leading and developing a team of Associates and Senior Associates, including coaching, performance management, and building bench strength and subject matter expertise.
- Overseeing incident management, including response to blockchain or platform events, execution of escalation protocols, and coordination of post-incident reviews and remediation.
- Driving operational excellence by identifying risks, inefficiencies, and control gaps, and partnering with Technology, Risk & Control, Compliance, and Product teams to implement sustainable solutions.
- Acting as a senior point of contact for complex client, audit, regulatory, and risk related inquiries, ensuring clear communication and timely resolution.
- Supporting business continuity and coverage needs. This role participates in a follow-the-sun operating model and requires flexibility to provide leadership coverage during non-standard hours, including occasional evenings and weekends, based on business and client needs.
To be successful in this role, we are seeking the following:
- Bachelor’s degree or an equivalent combination of education and relevant experience.
- 7 or more years of experience in financial services operations, custody, settlements, or digital assets, with demonstrated leadership responsibility.
- Strong understanding of operational risk management, controls, reconciliations, and regulated financial services environments.
- Solid working knowledge of digital assets, blockchain technology, tokenization, and cryptocurrency markets.
- Proven ability to lead teams, set priorities, and drive execution in a fast paced, high risk environment.
- Experience partnering cross functionally with Technology, Product, Compliance, and Risk stakeholders.
- Strong judgment, decision-making, and escalation skills, particularly during incidents or time-sensitive events.
- Clear and confident communication skills, with the ability to represent operations to senior stakeholders.
- Willingness to support flexible scheduling and provide leadership coverage outside of standard business hours when required.
- Accountability for operational performance, risk outcomes, and team effectiveness.
- Leadership over people, processes, and controls, not just task execution.
- Ownership of complex issues, incidents, and strategic initiatives.
- Active role in shaping operating models, controls, and future state capabilities for digital asset custody.
