OKX is a leading crypto exchange, and the developer of OKX Wallet, giving millions access to crypto trading and decentralized crypto applications (dApps). OKX is also a trusted brand by hundreds of large institutions seeking access to crypto markets. We are safe and reliable, backed by our Proof of Reserves. Across our multiple offices globally, we are united by our core principles: We Before Me, Do the Right Thing, and Get Things Done.

OKX is part of OKG, a group that brings the value of Blockchain to users around the world, through our leading products OKX, OKX Wallet, OKLink and more.

About the Opportunity

You are the Relationship Monetizer for all VIP institutions. Your network is the pipeline. You originate, progress, and close partnerships with VIP institutional clients - banks, asset managers, hedge funds, family offices, quant funds, and sovereign wealth funds - that generate substantial, recurring revenues and validate OKX as a credible institutional counterparty globally.

What You’ll Be Doing

Tier 1 network ownership and expansion. You curate, expand, and monetize your personal network of C-suite relationships at the largest global financial institutions. Your network is the vertical’s primary competitive advantage.
Revenue ownership and pipeline oversight. You carry the consolidated institutional revenue target across all segments. You own the number, the forecast, and pipeline health.
Vertical strategy and segment prioritization. You determine how to balance long-cycle bank partnerships (6-12+ months, custom integration, marquee logos) with shorter-cycle fund and asset manager clients (3-6 months, more standardized product, revenue velocity).
Tier 1 deal origination and closing (commercial structuring). You are the commercial architect on the biggest deals. You structure creative partnerships, negotiate terms, and close. You work alongside your Sr. Relationship Director who drives relationship-led selling and oversee the Sr. Institutional RM who executes commercially - on a global level.
Product need analysis and advocacy (ROI estimate of feature requests). Institutional clients surface product requirements that don’t exist yet — custom custody flows, new API capabilities, regulatory wrappers. You translate these into business cases with ROI estimates and advocate internally with product and engineering.
Regulatory positioning and compliance reflection. Traditional institutions’ primary barrier is not capital efficiency — it’s regulatory confidence. You articulate OKX’s regulatory standing (MiCA licensing, banking partnerships, compliance infrastructure) to client compliance committees, boards, and risk teams. You make the case for why OKX is a defensible counterparty.
External positioning and institutional marketing narrative. You own how OKX is perceived in the institutional market. You shape the narrative for OKX institutional and oversee the development of sales and marketing collateral (pitch decks, solution briefs, case studies, competitive positioning documents), shape press releases for institutional milestones, and develop thought leadership content that articulates OKX’s integration-first, relationship-led positioning.

What We Look For In You

10+ years of Business Development experience
Active institutional network. You have done business with C-suite decision-makers at banks, asset managers, and funds within the last 18 months.
Personal deal closing experience. You have personally originated and closed institutional partnerships.
Deep crypto product fluency. You can discuss custody models, trading infrastructure, FIX connectivity, settlement mechanics, and regulatory frameworks credibly without preparation. You understand the infrastructure development lifecycle of banks and traditional asset managers getting into digital assets.
Senior team management. You have managed or directed director-level professionals. You lead through influence and partnership.

Nice to Haves

Existing network of institutional contacts in banks, asset managers, and funds — relationships accelerate ramp time even if they are not the primary asset
Experience selling to both banks (complex, long-cycle, integration-heavy) and funds (shorter-cycle, standardized) simultaneously
Track record of building institutional sales teams and playbooks in a high-growth environment
Experience developing sales collateral, thought leadership content, or institutional marketing narratives
Experience with CRMs, pipeline building and tool management, sales intelligence platforms for institutional prospecting
Proficient in use of AI tooling (e.g. Claude) for workflow automation and productivity enhancement on behalf of small, high performance teams

Perks & Benefits

Competitive total compensation package
L&D programs and Education subsidy for employees' growth and development
Various team building programs and company events
