Head of Business Development

Who we are

As a long-standing Web3 infrastructure project, Lisk has been working towards democratizing blockchain accessibility for developers and end users globally since 2016. In Q1 2024, Lisk will be migrating to become an early collaborator on the Optimism Superchain vision, alongside Optimism, Base, and others, to accelerate that mission.

As a Layer 2 (L2) ecosystem chain built on the OP stack, Lisk will focus on solving local problems in Emerging Markets (such as Southeast Asia, Africa and others) by bringing applications around real-world assets (RWA), off-chain assets (OCA), and DePIN onchain.

Lisk is seeking an experienced business development professional to lead our Business Development team and GTM strategy for the new L2. This is a unique opportunity to:

• help lead a new initiative for a longstanding project in the blockchain ecosystem,
• drive meaningful adoption of the underlying technology in Emerging Markets, where Web3 has the real potential to improve people’s lives, and through that,
• become a visible leader in the Etheruem and Web3 industry.

How you make a difference

• Set and execute business development strategies in alignment with company goals.
• Manage projects from inception to successful implementation.
• Establish and monitor clear KPIs for the team, driving continuous improvement to achieve desired results.
• Lead a cross-functional team, bringing the best out of all members of the BD team, and fostering collaboration with other departments and the foundation.
• Take full ownership of business development, proactively driving success.

The magic you bring

• Proven Web3, fintech or other relevant business development experience with a deep understanding of market dynamics.
• Leadership and mentoring skills with a proactive approach to persistent outreach.
• Genuine interest in the Web3 industry, openness to feedback and a demonstrated willingness to adapt to changes.
• Exceptional interpersonal skills and relationship building.
• Structured approach to business development, implementing systematic processes.
• Willingness to travel for business development activities, approximately once per month.

We believe blockchain technology can change the world, but we need exceptional souls with diverse backgrounds to make it happen. Don’t let a list of criteria hold you back from applying - we want to hear your story!
