AP Executive are working with a fast-moving crypto start-up to hire a dynamic Head of OTC. The business has a variety of products and enjoys a very strong financial backing. The founders and CEO are very high profile and you will be working with a passionate team of crypto natives. The business has a strong footprint across the GCC region and is now in a strong position to go through a period of fast growth.

The Role

We’re looking for a Head of OTC to take ownership of the growth and development of the desk. You’ll own the entire OTC function — client relationships, execution, risk, and growth. This isn’t a legacy finance role — you’ll be hands-on from day one, building the desk, shaping the product, and driving revenue in a fastest-evolving corner of crypto.

What You’ll Do

Run and scale the OTC desk: quoting, pricing, and executing block trades with speed and discretion
Build + maintain strong relationships with funds, institutions, and whales across the space
Create and refine risk + execution frameworks that scale with the business
Partner with product + engineering to build tools that make trading frictionless
Spot market opportunities and expand our liquidity network globally

You will be

A proven business developer in the crypto space with a strong track record of successfully growing a desk in the OTC space
Well-networked across institutions, funds, family offices, and crypto-native players
A builder: comfortable operating with low bureaucracy, high autonomy, and real ownership
Someone who thrives on fast-moving markets, big deals, and solving liquidity puzzles
Sharp communicator + negotiator, able to build trust in high-stakes situations
Hungry to scale a start-up from early stage to category leader

Why Join?

Be the person who builds and runs a world-class OTC desk from the ground up

Competitive comp and upside

Work alongside founders and builders who live and breathe crypto

Real autonomy: you’ll have the room to experiment, move fast, and make big decisions
