Crypto Operations Specialist (London)

Location: London Office S chedul e: Full-Time No asset left behind Asset Reality provides the system of record for assets held under legal authority. Law enforcement agencies, prosecutors, asset recovery offices, treasuries and insolvency practitioners use the Asset Reality Platform to record every asset in their care, physical or digital, with Asset Reality Custody and Asset Reality Realisation available on top. Our aim is to make asset recovery simpler, so that more of it takes place. About the role You will carry out crypto operations for the digital assets Asset Reality holds on behalf of law enforcement and government clients. These assets come from real investigations and court orders. Every transfer is irreversible and every action may be examined in court. You will handle transfers, realisations, and remittance under dual control, and make sure the Platform records and reports each step correctly. You will help our crypto operations keep improving. When you see a gap in a procedure, a control or the Platform, you will raise it with evidence and help test the fix. Changes to approval rules and custody configuration are owned and approved by others, which protects you as much as the assets. The impact you will have • Crypto operations: Carry out transfers under written procedures and quorum approval, moving assets across online and offline custody. • Key ceremonies and offline signing: Take part in key generation and offline signing sessions and keep the records each one requires. • Realisation and remittance: Coordinate Asset Reality realisations with execution venues, reconcile proceeds against mandates, and remit funds to clients. • Platform accuracy: Make sure every report, record and reconciliation the Platform produces is correct and complete before it reaches a client, court or auditor, including realisation reports, chain-of-custody records and balance statements. • Platform design and testing: Define what each report and record must contain, test new releases against real operational scenarios before they go live, and raise defects and follow them through to resolution. • Reconciliation: Reconcile onchain balances, Platform records and bank records daily, and investigate every discrepancy to closure. • Procedures and incidents: Follow operating procedures and propose updates where they fall short. Log incidents and near misses, and track corrective actions. • Vendors and venues: Handle day-to-day operational contact with technology providers, execution venues, and banks. • Out-of-hours cover: Support live operations, including seizures, as part of an on-call rota.
