What You’ll Be Doing
  • Lead global finance operations. Accounting and reporting, month end close, financial controls, regulatory reporting, local audit, and regulatory reporting all sit under you. You'll lead a team of 30+ professionals across 15 countries and be accountable for the quality, timeliness, and defensibility of everything that comes out of it.
  • Partner with the regional C-suite on what's next. Business strategy, exchange listings, infrastructure investment, and M&A — you'll be in the room, and you'll be the one putting numbers behind the options. Capital planning and investor relations sit with you, as do external partnerships that carry a financial dimension.
  • Price the decisions before they're made. New products, new markets, new licenses. Each one gets a financial evaluation from your team — unit economics, capital requirements, tax and regulatory cost, downside cases. Leadership should be able to trust that analysis without re-running it.
  • Tighten controls and risk frameworks across crypto and fiat. This is the part most finance leaders haven't done before. Internal controls, SOX readiness, audit, and global regulatory obligations have to work across digital-asset custody and movement as well as conventional banking flows. You'll build the frameworks that hold up in both worlds.
  • Own external relationships. Regulators, banking partners, payment providers. These relationships determine what the business can and can't do in a given market, and they need a senior finance voice who regulators and bank credit committees take seriously.
  • Standardize the plumbing. Global finance policies, a single reporting architecture, consistent close and consolidation processes.
  • Sit on leadership committees at both the global and local entity level, including boards and governance bodies where a licensed entity requires it.
  • Maintain up-to-date knowledge of regional financial regulations and cryptocurrency market developments.
What We Look For In You 
  • Degree in Finance, Accounting, Economics, or a related field
  • Deep technical foundation in IFRS and US GAAP. CPA, ACCA, CA or equivalent certifcation
  • 15+ years of progressive financial leadership experience, preferably in a cryptocurrency exchange, fintech, or financial services company.
  • Strong understanding of cryptocurrency markets, blockchain technology, and digital asset accounting.
  • Expertise in financial regulations of various global jurisdictions (e.g., NYDFS, MAS, VARA, MiCA, FCA).
  • Proven experience with financial systems (e.g., Oracle NetSuite) and automation tools.
  • Strong analytical, strategic, and leadership skills with the ability to influence at all levels.
  • Excellent communication skills and ability to operate in a fast-paced, dynamic environment.
  • Experience managing multi-currency operations and intercompany transactions.
  • Ability to lead and develop teams in multiple jurisdictions and work across different time zones.
Nice to Have Have
  • MBA or equivalent
  • Bonus points if you have previously worked at a crypto exchange!
  • Passionate about blockchain technology and the crypto space
Perks & Benefits
  • Competitive total compensation package
  • L&D programs and Education subsidy for employees' growth and development
  • Various team building programs and company events
  • Wellness and meal allowances
  • Comprehensive healthcare schemes for employees and dependents
  • More that we love to tell you along the process!
