AI Summary

## The role, at a glance.

TRM Labs is seeking a senior business development executive to expand strategic access to financial institutions across EMEA. The role centers on activating an established executive network, opening senior stakeholder conversations, and converting relationships into qualified enterprise and partnership opportunities. It is not positioned as a traditional quota-closing sales role, but it requires demonstrable pipeline creation and strong market credibility in digital assets, financial crime, compliance, or crypto infrastructure. The executive will represent TRM at industry events and relay field intelligence to Sales, Product, Marketing, and Policy teams. The environment is explicitly high-velocity, ambiguous, and ownership-driven, with 30–40% travel expected.

Sample interview questionsDescribe how you would use an existing relationship at a major EMEA bank to create a qualified opportunity for TRM without treating the interaction as a simple introduction.I would begin by researching the institution's digital-asset strategy, regulatory exposure, financial-crime priorities, and relevant leadership changes. I would approach the trusted contact with a specific hypothesis about a problem TRM can help solve, then map adjacent stakeholders in compliance, investigations, risk, and innovation. My objective would be a multi-threaded discovery process with agreed business pain, urgency, decision dynamics, and next steps—not merely a meeting.

How have you converted a senior executive network into measurable pipeline?

I segment relationships by strategic fit, access strength, and likely trigger events, then build account plans that pair each contact with a clear value narrative. I track introductions, discovery quality, stakeholder coverage, opportunity stage progression, and sourced pipeline in the CRM. I also make sure the relationship is supported by useful insight and relevant internal experts so that trust turns into repeatable commercial momentum.

How would you engage a bank that is cautious about digital assets but faces increasing financial-crime and compliance pressure?

I would avoid leading with technology for its own sake and instead anchor the discussion in the bank's risk-management, investigative, and regulatory obligations. I would ask how the institution currently identifies and investigates exposure to illicit digital-asset activity, identify operational gaps, and show how intelligence can support existing compliance and investigation workflows. The conversation should be evidence-based, tailored to the institution's risk appetite, and coordinated with TRM subject-matter experts.

What is your practical workflow for using AI in research, prospecting, and pipeline management?

I use AI to synthesize public filings, regulatory developments, leadership changes, event signals, and account news into concise account briefs and outreach hypotheses. I validate outputs against authoritative sources, use structured prompts to identify stakeholder and use-case patterns, and document insights in the CRM with clear next actions. AI accelerates preparation and follow-up, while relationship judgment, confidentiality, and message quality remain my responsibility.

Tell us about a time you had to operate through ambiguity and rapidly changing priorities.

In a fast-moving market situation, I would first clarify the decision to be made, the customer impact, and the minimum evidence required to act. I would establish a short operating cadence with cross-functional partners, test the highest-value account or market hypothesis quickly, and share concise updates on results, risks, and required decisions. This keeps momentum high while allowing the plan to change as new customer or regulatory information emerges.

Opportunity details

## About this role.

### Build a Safer World.

TRM Labs provides AI-powered intelligence solutions that help public and private sector agencies investigate and disrupt crime. TRM’s platforms enable investigators to trace illicit activity, build cases, and construct operating pictures of threat networks. Leading agencies and businesses worldwide rely on TRM to make the world safer and more secure.

You will expand TRM’s strategic access across the EMEA financial institution ecosystem.

This is a senior individual contributor role, designed for someone who already has deep credibility and trusted relationships across banks, and financial institutions. You are not being hired to build a network from scratch. You are being hired to activate a network you have already earned.

This is not a traditional closing-quota sales role. Your mandate is to open senior-level conversations, multi-thread strategic accounts, create qualified enterprise opportunities, and help TRM become part of the most important digital asset, financial crime, and compliance conversations happening inside major financial institutions.

The Impact You Will Have

*

Open senior-level access at priority EMEA financial institutions by activating a network you have already built.

*

Build multi-threaded relationships across the stakeholders who shape digital asset strategy, financial crime programs, compliance priorities, investigations, risk, and innovation.

*

Help TRM earn a seat in the most important conversations happening inside strategic financial institutions

*

Identify and pursue high-value enterprise and partnership opportunities with banks and other financial institutions.

*

Represent TRM externally at conferences, executive forums, practitioner communities, and industry events, turning public presence and private conversations into qualified opportunities.

*

Partner closely with Sales, Product, Marketing, and Policy to turn strategic access into qualified customer opportunities, market insight, and long-term competitive advantage.

*

Turn market, technology, and regulatory shifts into an early-warning system for TRM, helping the company spot opportunities and risks before competitors do.

*

Close the loop between field signal and internal strategy by feeding customer insights, buying dynamics, objections, and market intelligence back into TRM’s product and GTM teams.

What We’re Looking For

*

Deep, credible network across EMEA financial institutions, ideally from having been head of digital assets at a bank, or from operating at a crypto infrastructure firm

*

Comfortable being customer-facing and public-facing: conferences, panels, thought leadership

*

Track record of turning relationships into real pipeline, not just introductions

*

Already uses AI day-to-day for research, prospecting, and pipeline management, with a concrete workflow to point to

Hard Requirements

*

Based remotely within Europe

*

Willing to travel 30-40% for conferences and in-person account work

*

Direct experience with financial institutions or crypto-native infrastructure companies serving them in EMEA

### AI Fluency at TRM

AI fluency is a baseline expectation at TRM.

We believe AI meaningfully changes how top performers operate. We expect every team member to use AI to accelerate and reimagine their craft, not just automate surface tasks.

At TRM, AI fluency means you are among the top 10 percent of operators in your function in how you apply AI to:

*

Accelerate repeatable workflows

*

Structure and solve problems

*

Improve output quality

*

Increase speed and leverage

You will be evaluated on applied AI fluency during the interview process.

### Life at TRM

We are building a safer world. That promise shows up in how we work every day.

TRM moves FAST. We are a high-velocity, high-ownership team that expects clarity, follow-through, and impact. People who thrive here are energized by hard problems, experimentation, and continuous feedback. If something takes months elsewhere, it will ship here in days.

Our work sits at the intersection of AI, national security, and fighting crime. The problems are complex, the stakes are real, and the environment evolves quickly. The pace and intensity of the work reflect the importance of the mission. As a result, the way we operate requires a high level of ownership, adaptability, collaboration, and creative problem-solving.

At TRM, you should expect:

*

Priorities and targets to change quickly

*

Operating with a high degree of ambiguity

*

A high level of personal ownership and accountability

*

Close collaboration across teams and functions

*

Frequent, high-touch communication

*

Creative problem-solving and out-of-the-box thinking

*

A pace that rewards urgency, adaptability, and outcomes

This environment is energizing for people who enjoy building, solving hard problems, and making progress in situations that are not always fully defined. It also requires thriving in ambiguity, adjusting course as new information emerges, and maintaining focus and positivity in a fast-moving and intense environment.

We also recognize that this style of operating is not for everyone. If you are primarily optimizing for predictability or a consistently balanced workload, we encourage you to use the interview process to pressure-test whether this environment is truly the right fit. We want teammates who thrive here, not just survive here.

If you are excited by meaningful problems, motivated by ambitious goals, and energized by working alongside mission-driven colleagues, there is a good chance you will find TRM to be an exceptional place to grow and contribute.

### Leadership Principles

We hire and grow against three leadership principles. They’re the standards for how we operate, treat each other, and make decisions.

*

Impact-Oriented Trailblazer: We put customers first and move with speed, focus, and adaptability. We treat every plan like an experiment – test, ship, measure, and iterate quickly.

*

Master Craftsperson: We care deeply about our craft. We balance speed with high standards, own outcomes end‑to‑end, and invest in getting better everyday.

*

Inspiring Colleague: We add clarity and energy, not noise. We bring humility, candor, and a one‑team mindset — giving and receiving feedback to make the team stronger.

### Join our Mission

At TRM, we care deeply about our craft. We are looking for individuals who want their work to matter, who experiment with speed and rigor, and who take pride in building a safer world for billions of people. If you’re excited by TRM’s mission but don’t check every box, we encourage you to apply — we hire for slope, judgment, and the will to learn fast.
