We're looking for an exceptional Head of Growth to join Ostium's leadership team - a leader who can operate with high autonomy, working directly with the founders to shape our market positioning and unlock organizational bottlenecks. We're a tight-knit team of ten, are at an inflection point in our growth, and user and product-focused. We need someone who can hit the ground running with exceptional intuition for both product and market dynamics. Work with us to build a multi billion-dollar protocol.
About Ostium
The first perpetuals platform purpose-built for TradFi assets, including S&P500, Gold, Oil, QQQ, JPY and many others. Traders can long or short any Real World Asset directly from a crypto wallet, with Ostium acting as the listing engine for traditional assets available onchain for the first time. Backed by $7.9M in funding from General Catalyst, GSR, Susquehanna (SIG), Localglobe, Alliance DAO, Meltem Demirors, Balaji Srinivasan and others.
The Role
You'll be a key strategic partner in shaping Ostium's future, owning critical workstreams that are otherwise bottlenecked at the founder level. This includes steering our market positioning, driving sophisticated growth strategies, and working on mission-critical initiatives like token strategy.
What You'll Own
- Strategic leadership of our GTM and positioning, including comprehensive marketing campaigns around major launches
- Development and execution of growth initiatives that align with our core thesis and product value
- Leadership of the GTM team, including resource allocation and operational execution
- High-stakes communication strategy, particularly around key announcements and market positioning
- Work with founders on points related strategy
Who You Are
- A serious operator who deeply understands DeFi and would actually use and love Ostium's product
- Crypto-native with sophisticated understanding of token dynamics and market mechanics
- An exceptional strategic thinker who can translate vision into executable plans
- Outstanding verbal and visual communicator with strong branding instincts
- Highly organized and structured in approach, but scrappy and able to execute
- Natural leader who can manage and unblock teams effectively
- Someone who thinks deeply about market dynamics but maintains long-term conviction
Location NYC or London preferred, with flexibility for exceptional candidates who can maintain significant overlap with ET. If you're the rare combination of sophisticated operator, strategic thinker, and execution-focused marketer who deeply gets what we're building – let's talk.
