Role
Who you are
- We are looking for a bright, driven and ideally crypto native individual to join our Business Operations team, on a 6 month internship contract
- Academic Background: You're a final-year student or recent graduate with a Bachelor's or Master's degree. While a quantitative or analytical discipline is preferred, it's not essential
- Problem Solver & Structured Thinker: You're eager to step up and help solve problems, actively seeking ways to contribute solutions. You enjoy making sense of messy situations and have a keen interest in building clear frameworks to bring order and structured thinking to complex, often ambiguous, problems. You're keen to bring forward new ideas and are receptive to feedback, ready to iterate collaboratively with your team
- Proactive & Driven by Impact: You're a natural mover and a self-starter who doesn't wait for instructions. We value those who are relentlessly proactive and prefer to accelerate rather than need prompting.
- You're keen to take ownership of tasks and push them forward, with a strong desire to make a tangible impact, evident in your academic projects, part-time roles, or prior internships
- Organized & Reliable: You're highly organized, reliable, and results-oriented, with keen attention to detail. You have a proven ability to manage multiple priorities efficiently
- Data-Curious & Tech-Forward: You're energized by translating operational challenges into data problems and are eager to learn how to execute analyses to drive insights. You also have a strong interest in new technologies (like AI tooling) and understand their value within an organization
- Clear Communicator & Collaborative: You're comfortable sharing your work and insights. You're also adaptable and engaged, appreciating a dynamic and flexible work environment, and you're comfortable staying engaged and responsive when needed
- Committed to Growth: You actively seek feedback and are genuinely committed to continuous personal and professional development. You see every challenge as an opportunity to learn
- Industry Interest: An interest in digital assets, blockchain, and financial markets is preferred
- Prior Experience (Beneficial): Prior internship or project experience in a fast-paced environment (like consulting, finance, tech, or operations) is preferred but not essential
- We value self-awareness and powerful communication skills in our recruitment process
- We seek fiercely passionate people who understand themselves and their career goals
- We're after those with the right skills and a conscious choice to join our field
- The perfect fit? A crypto enthusiast who’s driven, collaborative, acts with ownership and delivers solid, scalable outcomes
What the job involves
- Play a crucial supporting role in our operational projects, helping to tackle complex challenges from definition to implementation and unlock the firm's future growth and scalability
- Actively assist cross-functional teams in delivering critical business outcomes. This involves utilizing first-principles thinking and in-depth due diligence to support the documentation of value, inherent risks, and broader implications of proposed solutions, ensuring measurable value
- Contribute to bringing strategic solutions to life, from effectively structuring deliverables and executing rapid analyses for quick answers, to supporting their implementation and helping build more scalable solutions vital for Keyrock's long-term objectives
- Drive operational efficiency and scalability by researching optimizations to core business processes and enhancing firm-wide automation initiatives

Our take
Digital assets and cryptocurrencies have huge potential; but the fragmented nature of the space, atop a lack of regulated infrastructure, results in poor liquidity – discouraging their adoption. Keyrock deploys scalable, adaptive algorithms for its clients to create unique financial markets for digital assets, an integral part of bringing liquidity to the space.
Keyrock is a leading global liquidity partner for digital assets, securing this position through a focus on data excellence and scalability. The company offers market making services, building the financial foundation for token economies, alongside offering businesses and individuals access to vetted digital asset spot markets.
Keyrock has seen substantial investment and support from industry experts, allowing it to accelerate development, and is connected to numerous trading venues. In 2022, Keyrock raised $72 million in investment which will aid its infrastructure and scalability tool development and fund its search for regulatory licenses across Europe, Singapore, and the US.
