About Ceffu

Ceffu is a leading institutional-grade digital asset custody platform, offering secure, compliant, and scalable solutions for enterprises, hedge funds, and financial institutions.

Our mission is to provide cutting-edge security and infrastructure to support the seamless integration of blockchain technology into institutional finance.

About Ceffu

The role

We're looking for a Senior BD Manager who can engage regulators, originate deals, and own client relationships — globally.

You'll be the commercial face of Ceffu: credible with licensing bodies, sharp on deal structuring, and trusted by institutional clients for the long term.

What you'll do

  • **Regulatory engagement.**
  • Represent Ceffu with regulators, licensing authorities, and government bodies across APAC, EMEA, Middle East, and Americas.
  • **Deal origination.**
  • Identify and close new business with hedge funds, asset managers, exchanges, banks, and family offices globally.
  • **End-to-end ownership.**
  • Own the full commercial journey — from identifying the right targets and building the relationship, through negotiation, close, and beyond.
  • No handoffs, no committees.
  • You're the face of Ceffu to your clients at every stage, which means the wins are yours too.
  • **Partnerships and ecosystem.**
  • Build strategic relationships with exchanges, protocols, and TradFi players — identifying integration and co-distribution opportunities that expand Ceffu's reach.
  • **Product feedback.**
  • Channel structured market intelligence — client needs, competitor moves, regulatory shifts — directly to product and leadership.
  • What we're looking for
  • 10+ years in BD, institutional sales, or strategic partnerships in digital assets or financial services.
  • Direct experience engaging financial regulators or licensing bodies across multiple jurisdictions.
  • Proven track record closing complex, multi-stakeholder deals with institutional clients.
  • Solid understanding of digital asset infrastructure — custody models (MPC, multisig), staking, and CeFi/DeFi dynamics.
  • Strong network across institutional crypto, TradFi, and/or regulatory ecosystems. Multilingual a plus.
  • Nice to have
  • Background at a digital asset custodian, prime broker, or regulated crypto exchange.
  • Existing relationships with sovereign wealth funds, family offices, or Tier 1 exchanges.
  • Familiarity with MiCA, MAS licensing frameworks, VARA, or equivalent.
