If you're in our operations team, you'll have a diverse scope working with stakeholders such as sales traders, account managers and sales managers and be part of scaling up our expanding infrastructure.

We are now seeking a Partnerships Business Development Manager to drive growth by building and nurturing relationships with key Affiliates, VIP clients, and Brokers. This role will be instrumental in expanding our presence within these high‑impact segments, ensuring long‑term success through strategic partnerships and innovative solutions tailored to the needs of high‑value customers.

Be at the forefront of Crypto.com’s expansion into high‑value segments – Affiliates, VIPs, and Brokers. In this dynamic and fast‑growing crypto space, you'll have the freedom to shape your network, creating meaningful partnerships that drive value for both Crypto.com and your clients.

Your creativity will be at the heart of this role – whether it's crafting new incentives for VIP clients or collaborating with internal teams to develop never‑before‑seen products for your partners. With the support of a world‑class team, you'll have the opportunity to take risks, test new approaches, and leave your mark in shaping the future of crypto partnerships.

Responsibilities

• Identifying and developing new partnerships with media and Affiliates (e.g., KOLs, influencers, and other local crypto leaders), to attract first‑time depositors and trades.
• Identifying and developing new partnerships with Brokers and enhancing Crypto.com’s broker program, as well as maintaining and growing relationships with current brokers.
• Identifying and reaching out to VIP clients.
• Maintaining the existing KOLs relationship and performance.
• Providing timely, satisfactory, and trustworthy customer service and issue resolution to Crypto.com’s Affiliates, Brokers and VIPs, proactively liaising with Crypto.com’s internal team, and providing improvement recommendations to management.
• Keeping up with the latest trends on social media, such as YouTube, TikTok, etc., and within the blockchain influencer community.
• Attending conferences, representing Crypto.com and engaging with Affiliates, Brokers and VIPs, increasing awareness of our products and services.
• Conducting community outreach activities, attending crypto community gatherings and meetings to expand and deepen our institutional footprint.
• Researching market and competitor trends in the crypto space.
• Drafting and closing client or partnership agreements.
• Maintaining ongoing contact with Affiliates, Brokers and VIP clients, tracking feedback, and recommending product improvements.

Requirements

• Previous experience in crypto or blockchain in the local market, with existing relationships or knowledge of influential figures in the local ecosystem.
• Network of clients within Affiliates, KOLs, VIPs, and Brokers space.
• 1+ years experience in digital assets, cryptocurrency, web3, or blockchain.
• 2+ years work experience selling financial products.
• Candidates with more experience may be considered for a Senior Institutional Sales position.
• Demonstrable track record of initiating, managing and monetizing relationships with clients or partners, driving business results, and drafting documentation and agreements.
