Our mission is to accelerate the advancement of blockchain technology, by finding the best emerging blockchain projects and helping them succeed. CoinList has become the global leader in new token issuance, helping blue chip projects like Solana, Filecoin, Celo, Dapper Labs, and others raise over $1 billion and connect them with hundreds of thousands of new token holders. And we now support the full lifecycle of crypto investment, from token sales through token distribution, trading, and crypto-specific services such as staking and access to decentralized-finance opportunities. CoinList users trade and store Bitcoin, Ether, and many other popular crypto assets through CoinList.co, CoinList Pro (our full-service exchange), and mobile apps, while also getting exclusive access to the best new tokens before they list on other exchanges.

Unlike other centralized crypto finance platforms, we're not here to just build a bank or a brokerage. We're building the platform for people who are passionate about moving crypto forward, and we’re just getting started. Come join us and propel the future of crypto!

Our Protocol Services team is dedicated to advancing the crypto ecosystem by supporting builders through their launch journey. We help the builder at every stage of their journey, from start, to launch and grow.

Why CoinList?

Joining CoinList means you’ll be at the intersection of finance and technology, contributing to the infrastructure that will power the next generation of crypto innovation. You’ll work with a talented team committed to fostering your growth and exploring new possibilities in a fast-evolving industry.

Role Overview: 

For a Token Launch Lead, we’re looking for someone to build relationships with  industry leading crypto projects and drive the company’s key business objectives. You will identify, source, and close strategic partnerships. Your job is to help us find the next big token sale or distribution and you should have a passion for selling and driving revenue. 

On the Protocol Services team at CoinList, your daily responsibilities will include sourcing new prospects, meeting with founders, coordinating cross functionally with internal teams (e.g. legal, product, engineering, compliance), evaluating projects, and obviously closing big deals. Unlike most other sales or BD roles, CoinList is extremely selective in our customers. You’ll be expected to identify, understand, and close only the highest quality potential customers. If you are an entrepreneurial person with exceptional sales talent and deep analytical rigor, we’d love to hear from you. 

Responsibilities:

• Identify top-tier crypto/blockchain projects for potential token launches
• Own full lifecycle of partner engagement, deal-making, and partnership implementation
• Build lead lists, and source deals
• Manage the due diligence process on potential token launch partners 
• Write token launch deal memos for formal business approval
• Conduct research to identify new markets, customer needs, and cross sell opportunities
• Work closely with leaders from product, marketing, operations, legal, and engineering teams to close business and drive new revenue
• Execute in a fast-paced and constantly-evolving environment

Requirements

Qualifications: 

• Proven deal experience and history of closing deals for $500K+ sized contracts backed up by performance numbers / metrics (crypto sales, investment banking, enterprise software sales)
• Experience working cross functionally to close deals (work with product, engineering, legal, compliance, etc.)
• Investment management / venture capital / investment research background - if in crypto, that’s a major plus
• Crypto native is a must - familiar with key trends and projects building in different crypto ecosystems - if you don’t have a strong understanding of crypto markets and projects, then this role is not for you
• Self starter - ability to navigate a deal cycle from start to finish with a minimal amount of oversight
• Established network within the crypto industry for deal sourcing

Desirable Skills: 

• Strong writing skills, with experience publishing research, analyses, or thought leadership in the crypto space
• Technical proficiency with data querying languages (SQL, GraphQL, Python, R) is a plus
• Background in economics, engineering, or computer science is preferred
