Appointing a CEO to Lead a Digital Asset Treasury in NY

The Challenge

This was a highly sensitive and specialised hire, and the client needed someone with:

  • A strong investment and treasury background, ideally with exposure to institutional digital asset markets
  • An extensive network across Web3, digital assets, and traditional finance
  • Immediate availability to support launch timelines

The organisation also wanted to ensure the search process was highly focused, avoiding the “noise” of recruiters providing unvetted profiles without real market insight.
