About the company:
Client is building a hybrid on-chain banking platform that combines traditional financial services with blockchain infrastructure in a single ecosystem. Alongside banking and wealth products, the company is launching a premium Lifestyle & Travel marketplace focused on delivering curated experiences for high-net-worth customers.
About the role:
We're looking for a Director of Marketplace to build and launch the Lifestyle & Travel vertical from the ground up, with wellness at its core.
This is a highly entrepreneurial role with full ownership of the business. You'll define the partner ecosystem, shape the marketplace strategy, launch the product together with Product and Engineering teams, and gradually build your own organization around the Lifestyle business.
One of the biggest advantages of this role is the opportunity to join at the very beginning of a new product. Rather than optimizing an existing marketplace, you'll be responsible for creating it from scratch and directly influencing both the product strategy and commercial success of the business.
