Head of New Ventures (Capital Markets & Blockchain)

We're partnering with a proprietary trading firm to identify a leader who can repeatedly create new revenue-generating businesses at the intersection of Capital Markets and Blockchain.

This leader will identify emerging market opportunities, build investment-grade business cases, secure executive sponsorship, launch new ventures, and help establish them as profitable businesses.

What You'll Build

• Identify emerging market opportunities capable of becoming scalable, revenue-generating businesses within capital markets and blockchain.
• Develop investment-grade business plans, including market validation, revenue models, commercialization strategies, and financial projections.
• Secure executive sponsorship and investment by presenting compelling business cases backed by commercial and strategic analysis.
• Build and launch new ventures by leading cross-functional teams across technology, legal, compliance, operations, and commercial organizations.
• Establish new ventures through customer acquisition, strategic partnerships, early revenue generation, and operational execution before transitioning them into standalone business lines.
• Continuously evaluate new ideas, making disciplined investment decisions on which opportunities to scale, refine, or discontinue.

What Success Looks Like

• You bring 20+ years of experience across capital markets and blockchain, with meaningful leadership experience commercializing blockchain-enabled businesses.
• You have repeatedly built a new business, business line, or venture from concept through commercialization, not simply managed existing products or platforms.
• You have personally influenced revenue growth through customer acquisition, strategic partnerships, commercialization, business development, or ownership of a P&L.
• You have experience in both capital markets and blockchain, giving you the ability to identify opportunities where emerging technology creates commercial value.
• You have directly influenced revenue generation through business development, partnerships, commercialization, or ownership of a P&L.
• You are comfortable operating in ambiguity, balancing strategic thinking with hands-on execution.
• Your career demonstrates long-term impact, stable progression, and a pattern of building organizations rather than moving frequently.

This isn't about launching a single business. It's about repeatedly identifying the next opportunity, building the business case, commercializing it, and then moving on to create what's next.

This opportunity is designed for someone who thrives at the earliest stages of building something meaningful. If you've repeatedly identified untapped market opportunities, secured investment, launched new commercial ventures, and enjoy turning ideas into sustainable businesses, we'd welcome the opportunity to speak with you.
