Why Treasury Talent Is Heating Up in Web3 (And What Founders Should Do About It)

Why Treasury Talent Is Heating Up in Web3 (And What Founders Should Do About It)

Date: 07 Jul 2025

Crypto news moves fast. But if you’re hiring — read between the headlines.

Today’s Trigger: Institutional Capital Is Coming — Again

Ethereum ETF demand is surging. Predictions for $8,500 ETH by end of year are all over the place. And with U.S. crypto regulation ramping up next week, one thing is clear:

Money is getting serious again.

Big moves mean big money — and that means Treasury suddenly matters again.

What We’re Seeing Behind the Scenes

Over the past 48 hours, we’ve had 3 clients ask for senior Treasury hires — all at once.
Not junior finance staff. Not bookkeepers.

They want talent that understands:

Crypto-native cash flow (fast, fragmented, chain-dependent)
Multi-currency and multi-chain treasury ops
Institutional expectations around risk, controls, and reporting
Tools like Fireblocks, Gnosis, MPCs, and on-chain accounting infra

In other words: not your average accountant.

The Role That’s Blowing Up Right Now:

Head of Treasury (Web3/FinTech/DeFi)

We’re placing candidates into roles like:

Crypto/Fiat liquidity leads
Treasury risk strategists
Infrastructure builders (payment rails, dashboards, alerts, auto-rebalancing)

And they’re expected to plug in fast — across multiple wallets, chains, jurisdictions, and systems.

If you don’t have someone owning this function, you’re exposed — to hacks, human error, and regulatory chaos. And if you’re hiring? Don’t wait until it’s too late.

For Founders & Hiring Managers:

If your org touches funds — and you're scaling — this hire is critical.
Especially if you’re eyeing partnerships, licensing, or institutional capital.

Don’t trust Twitter price pumps.
Trust your ops. Trust your treasury.

That starts with hiring the right person — or losing sleep (and possibly capital) trying to clean up after the wrong one.

For Candidates:

If you’ve been managing crypto liquidity, reconciling chain activity, or building treasury infra — your time is now.

And we want to hear from you.
