Head of Partnership

About UR

UR is the account layer for the digital asset economy. We provide IBAN, multi-currency accounts, fiat rails, card, and compliance infrastructure — all through a single API. Wallets, exchanges, and digital asset platforms integrate UR so their users get real financial accounts without the partner needing a license, banking relationships, or compliance stack.

About The Role

You'll own the partnership pipeline — from first conversation to live integration. UR's distribution model is B2B2C: we grow by signing wallet, exchange, and corporate partners who distribute accounts to their users. You'll be the person who makes that happen.

This is a hands-on, deal-closing role. Small team, big opportunity, direct impact on the company's growth trajectory.

What You'll Do

  • Own the partnership pipeline. Identify, approach, negotiate, and close integration deals with self-custody wallets, exchanges, neobanks, and corporate clients.

  • Build and manage relationships with existing partners to grow adoption and deepen integration.

  • Drive corporate account acquisition. Identify crypto-native companies with multi-currency and FX needs. Close high-deposit accounts.

  • Represent UR at conferences, in industry conversations, and across crypto/fintech communities.

  • Shape the BD playbook. You'll be building the function, not inheriting a process.

  • Feed product insights back. You hear what partners need — make sure the product team hears it too.

What We're Looking For

Must-have:

  • 4+ years in business development or partnerships at a crypto infrastructure, fintech infrastructure, or digital asset company

  • Existing relationships with wallet providers, exchanges, or crypto platforms — especially in Asia and Europe

  • Track record of closing integration / API partnerships (not ad sales or SaaS seats)

  • Comfortable working in a small, fast-moving team with high autonomy

  • Understand what an API integration involves — can speak to technical and business stakeholders

Strong signals:

  • Previously at Fireblocks, Circle, Chainalysis, MoonPay, Ramp, Mesh, Paxos, Airwallex, or a top exchange

  • Experience selling regulated financial products or compliance infrastructure

  • Network in Southeast Asia, Middle East, or European crypto ecosystems

  • Comfortable with multi-currency, FX, and cross-border payment concepts

Not a fit if:

  • Pure DeFi/protocol background with no B2B experience

  • Enterprise bank sales background (different speed, different buyers)

  • Marketing-oriented "partnerships" (co-branding, events) — this is a revenue-driving role

What You'll Work With

  • A product that's live, growing, and differentiated — not a pitch deck

  • Direct access to the founding team

  • A clear target list: ~50 high-value wallet and exchange partners globally

  • Corporate prospect pipeline in crypto-native companies with treasury/FX needs

Location

Singapore, Dubai, or Zurich preferred. Remote considered for exceptional candidates with the right network.

Compensation

Competitive base + meaningful equity. This is a foundational hire — you'll build the BD function.
