About Keyrock

Scaling liquidity and pricing assets since 2017. We enhance digital markets. Backed by time-tested algorithms and ironclad tech. Market making - OTC - Options.

About the role

We are hiring a Head of Marketing to take full ownership of our marketing strategy, rebrand Keyrock and reposition us as the market evolves from crypto-native to institutional, merging with traditional finance. This is not a maintenance role. It is a transformation mandate with full discretionary decision-making on how to implement our commercial strategy. You will work as a close strategic partner to the CCO, operating almost as co-marketeers.

What they're looking for

  • Crypto-native. You have been through market cycles. You understand blockchain technology deeply but you are pragmatic, not ideological. You know this is not a binary world
  • A brand-builder, not an ops person. You are inspiring, not operational. You set direction, tone and creative vision
  • An exceptional communicator. You can face institutional allocators who care about regulation and licensing, and crypto-native counterparties who value speed and edge. You switch between both with ease
  • Confident and assertive. You project authority. You bring conviction and directness - you challenge constructively and don't default to consensus. You bring edge, energy and a slightly audacious style
  • Human-centric. You connect with people, build followership and bring teams along
  • Detail-oriented. Despite the strategic focus, you sweat the details on brand consistency, messaging precision and design quality

We're not just envisioning the future of finance - we're building it.
