CFO Cryptocurrency

• Exciting strategic and tactical CFO role.
• Founding role as CFO, setting up Crypto firm in NYC

About Our Client

The company is a newly formed digital asset treasury and investment platform being established through a strategic partnership between a global bank and tech firm, with plans to raise up to USD 600 million to create a regulated institutional vehicle within the BNB ecosystem.

The venture will bridge traditional capital markets and the digital asset economy, offering institutional-grade exposure, governance, and innovation.

Job Description

As the founding Chief Financial Officer, you will play a pivotal role in building the financial and operational backbone of a high-growth digital-asset start-up.

This is both a strategic and hands-on role: the CFO will design the financial infrastructure, policies, and controls from the ground up, while directly supporting the CEO (a seasoned capital-markets executive ) in the fundraising execution and investor engagement process. The ideal candidate will thrive in ambiguity, combine institutional financial-controls discipline with start-up execution speed, and have strong experience in treasury, fundraising, or asset-management environments.Key Responsibilities

Build-out & Infrastructure

• Establish the full finance function from scratch - accounting systems, chart of accounts, ERP, treasury, and financial-control frameworks.
• Implement policies for digital-asset custody, valuation, reconciliation, and reporting.
• Design and oversee external audit, tax, and compliance relationships.
• Build the operating infrastructure required for future scalability and regulatory readiness.

Capital Formation & Investor Relations

• Partner with the CEO to execute on the planned USD 600 million capital raise, including financial modelling, data-room management, and investor presentations.
• Lead all financial aspects of fund structuring, capital deployment, and treasury operations.
• Act as the key point of contact for investors, legal counsel, and strategic partners.

Financial Governance & Reporting

• Oversee all internal and external financial reporting, including IFRS/US GAAP standards for digital-asset accounting.
• Ensure robust liquidity management and on/off-chain treasury oversight.
• Develop regular reporting and performance dashboards for the Board and investors.

Strategic Leadership

• Serve as a strategic advisor to the CEO on financial strategy, risk, and operational decision-making.
• Recruit and mentor a lean finance and operations team as the business scales.
• Foster a culture of transparency, accountability, and integrity.
