The Challenge<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

They were working with a tight timeline and needed to hire in under 6 weeks. The right person needed experience in venture backed environments, to be fluent in both German and English, and capable of building out finance functions from the ground up, while advising the leadership team on growth, compliance, and token-related governance. This, combined with a global talent shortage of finance leaders with exposure to both traditional finance and Web3 ecosystems, made for a tough search.<\/p>\n<\/div>

  • Tap into our executive network, leveraging our contacts across Berlin, Zurich, and London, as well as our global network of finance leaders within blockchain and digital asset ecosystems.<\/li>\n\n\n\n

The placement was completed in 3 weeks, with an exceptional finance leader, to bridge the gap between TradFi precision and DeFi innovation.
