Our client is scaling its institutional lending desk and is looking for an experienced Institutional Sales professional with strong expertise in crypto-backed loans.

You will own the full commercial lifecycle of the lending product. That includes sourcing borrowers, structuring collateralized loans, and managing long-term client relationships.

This is a high-impact role for someone who understands collateral mechanics, LTV structures, and the credit needs of crypto-native and institutional players.

  • Work closely with risk, legal, and compliance on credit and collateral processes

  • Build and manage a strong pipeline of borrowers and track performance in CRM

  • Stay close to market conditions and communicate risks and opportunities proactively

  • Feed client insights back into product and risk teams to improve offering


What We’re Looking For

  • 4+ years in institutional sales, crypto lending, prime brokerage, or structured credit

  • Hands-on experience with crypto collateral, LTV, margin calls, and liquidation flows

  • Strong understanding of institutional crypto clients and their credit needs

  • Existing network of funds, family offices, or treasury operators

  • Ability to explain complex structures in a clear, practical way

  • Comfortable working in regulated environments alongside compliance and risk

  • High ownership mindset, able to build and manage your own pipeline


Nice to Have

  • Experience with DeFi lending protocols (Aave, Compound, etc.)

  • Exposure to cross-border lending or multi-jurisdiction structures

  • Understanding of yield-bearing or staking-backed collateral


Compensation

  • Competitive base

  • Performance-based commission on loan book

  • Token / equity upside

  • Flexible, remote-friendly setup
