Blockchain technology and digital assets are on the rise since the launch of Bitcoin in 2009. Over the past decade this topic has gained significant traction and is now a key strategic topic for our clients across financial institutions, corporates and the public sector. As part of the Blockchain team you will work across our three business lines, identify new business opportunities and support our clients in their transition to a more digital future.

We are looking for new talented colleagues keen to drive our Blockchain initiative forward. If you enjoy exploring protocols, come up with innovative solution and like to work in a fast-paced industry, then you should apply to us!

 

Your role

You will join our Blockchain team, which works across our three pillars of ‘Financial Institutions’, ‘Corporates’ and ‘Public Sector’ and consists of business analysts, financial experts and developers. This is a unique position within the company as it allows you to work across all segments within Zanders and get exposure to all types of clients. Our clients range from Global Systemically Important Banks to multinational corporates, public institutions as well as start-ups in the Blockchain industry. Blockchain technology, in particular Decentralized Finance and the Metaverse, is a hot topic in all these sectors and we are looking for you to drive the initiative forward.

Your role is to determine how Blockchain technology can be used to disrupt current business models and how this will impact our clients. Amongst other responsibilities, your role will focus on advising clients on their digital assets strategy, developing new ideas and tools, supporting our clients  as well as business development.

Key assets to be successful are an understanding of financial instruments and strong communication and analytical skills. More specifically, you will need:

  • Master degree in economics, finance, business studies, digital assets or an MBA
  • Certified Blockchain knowledge
  • Interest in Blockchain technology, assessing and analysing disruptive business models
  • A passion for content, problem solving and managing client needs;
  • Independent, flexible and able to manage several projects at the same time;
  • Some programming experience (e.g. Solidity) and attention to detail is a plus;
  • Fluent in English and German
  • Flexible to travel.
  • Living in or relocating to Frankfurt

 

What we offer in return

At Zanders you will of course enjoy attractive conditions of employment: a good compensation and working environment alongside our experienced Consultants within our Financial Institutions department. But there is more to look forward to.

Will you be working at Zanders? Then we will offer you:

  • A good balance between work and free time in combination with a healthy work from home ethics and wellness policy.
  • A brand new office is located in the heart of Frankfurt’s financial center.
  • Our team consists of risk professionals with a strong analytical background in Econometrics, Quantitative Finance or Mathematics. We are an ambitious and enthusiastic team with a focus on fun, team spirit and personal development.
