The Opportunity:
For a Token Sale Lead, we’re looking for someone to build relationships with industry leading crypto projects and drive the company’s key business objectives. You will identify, source, and close strategic partnerships. Your job is to help us find the next big token sale or distribution and you should have a passion for selling and driving revenue.
Our Protocol Services team is dedicated to advancing the crypto ecosystem by supporting builders through their launch journey. We help the builder at every stage of their journey, from start, to launch and grow.

- You’re excited about cryptocurrency. CoinList’s mission is to help the best crypto companies succeed by serving as a trusted advisor in the space. We’re incredibly excited by the power of distributed ledger technology, and you should be too.
- You are a self-starter who can drive a deal from start to finish with minimal oversight.
- You are well-connected within the crypto industry and able to leverage your network for deal sourcing.
- You execute in a fast-paced and constantly-evolving environment.
What You'll Do:
- Identify top-tier crypto/blockchain projects for potential token sales or other fundraising events.
- Own full lifecycle of partner engagement, deal-making, and partnership implementation.
- Build lead lists, and source deals.
- Manage the due diligence process on potential token sale partners.

- Investment management / venture capital / investment research background - if in crypto, that’s a major plus.
- Crypto native is a must - familiar with key trends and projects building in different crypto ecosystems - if you don’t have a strong understanding of crypto markets and projects, then this role is not for you.
- Self starter - ability to navigate a deal cycle from start to finish with a minimal amount of oversight.
- Established network within the crypto industry for deal sourcing.
