Job description

Legal Manager, Capital Markets and Tokenisation

3 to 5 years PQE | Hybrid: Jersey| Full time

About Assetize

Assetize is a specialist in tokenised capital markets, including tokenised real-world assets, across a spectrum of legal structures: virtual assets, security tokens, commodity tokens, certificates, funds and more. We structure, issue and administer them through pre-established issuance structures in leading international finance centres, with over $300m of assets issued and serviced on the platform. Recent work includes tokenised listed stocks, a pre-IPO programme through SPVs, a money market product with a Shariah option, and a compute vault.

The role

You will join a legal team led by our Head of Legal / General Counsel and run issuances yourself. You take a product from term sheet to first mint: draft the offering documents and board papers, manage the administrator, custodian, broker and external counsel, and get the consents in. You will own products end to end rather than touching pieces of many, with AI doing the first draft and you doing the thinking.

What you will do
  • Draft and maintain offering memoranda, supplements, product terms, subscription documents and our prospectus programme.
  • Turn a commercial idea into a workable structure: SPV or cell, certificate, security token or virtual asset, who holds the asset, how it is minted and redeemed.
  • Run regulatory consents and variations with the JFSC and other regulators alongside the Head of Legal / General Counsel.
  • Negotiate custody, brokerage, platform, sponsor and service provider agreements, on a proportionate posture: push only where something breaks.
  • Review AI drafted documents hard: find what is wrong, fix it and build it back into our precedents.
  • Hold our precedent bank and matter playbooks so each issuance is faster than the last.
What we are looking for
  • A qualified lawyer with around 3 to 5 years' PQE (England and Wales, Jersey, Guernsey, BVI, Cayman, UAE or equivalent).
  • Experience in capital markets, structured finance, funds, corporate or financial regulation, in practice or in house.
  • Comfort running a matter and making a call without someone checking every line.
  • Commercial, quick and clear in writing: a call made in five lines, not five pages.
  • You are already experienced with, or eager to learn and adopt, AI tooling to accelerate timelines, document review, research and scoping.

If you do not tick every box, we would still love to hear from you. This is a dynamic industry, and your approach matters more to us than a perfect CV.

Bonus points
  • Tokenised securities, virtual assets, digital asset custody or crypto regulation.
  • Protected cell companies, SPVs or securitisation vehicles.
  • ADGM, DIFC, VARA or EU Prospectus Regulation experience.

The package includes salary and equity for the right candidate.
