How We Work
Retained, contingent and advisory engagements for digital asset hiring

Retained Search

For senior, regulatory and confidential appointments: C-suite, board, Head of Digital Assets, MLRO, Chief Compliance Officer, General Counsel, Head of Tokenization. A named lead runs the search, builds a market map, reports weekly and delivers a shortlist on an agreed timeline. Every retained placement carries a replacement guarantee. We will not advertise the role without your agreement.

Contingent Search

For engineering, product and mid-level hires, and for teams scaling at volume. Fee on placement, no exclusivity required. Our consultants have placed Rust, Solidity, ZK, custody and AI x crypto engineers since 2017 and run the largest dedicated candidate network in digital assets.
