About Capital Vault:

Capital Vault (CV) is a crypto infrastructure provider under the Capital.com Group umbrella, focused on delivering regulated crypto custody, spot exchange, payment processing, and wallet services.

Role Summary:

The Head of Risk Management is a senior leadership position responsible for establishing, overseeing, and continuously enhancing CV s enterprise-wide risk framework. This includes financial, operational, cyber, and crypto-asset-specific risks. The role is critical in meeting the SCA/CySEC/FCA regulatory expectations and ensuring the company operates within its defined risk appetite across all business lines.
Key Responsibilities:
    • 1. Strategic Risk Oversight:
    • Design, implement, and maintain a risk management framework tailored for a regulated crypto firm.
    • Identify and assess material risks across CV's business: custody, exchange, wallets, payments and staking.

    • Drive implementation of internal controls and conduct Risk & Control Self-Assessments (RCSAs).

    • 4. Market, Liquidity & Credit Risk:
    • Assess risks linked to CV s trading with external liquidity providers (e.g., default, slippage, settlement failure).
    • Review pricing sources, aggregation logic, and back-to-back execution mechanisms.

    • 5. Custody & Technology Risk:
    • Evaluate risk controls around hot/cold wallet segregation, private key management (e.g., Fireblocks), and internal ledger accuracy.
    • Collaborate with cybersecurity teams to mitigate key threats such as wallet compromise, ransomware, or DDoS attacks.

    • 6. Regulatory Risk:
    • Monitor compliance with SCA s risk-related requirements (e.g., capital adequacy, outsourcing, incident reporting).
    • Ensure risk systems, documentation, and controls remain audit-ready and up to date.

    • 7. Product Risk:
    • Perform product risk assessments for new crypto offerings before go-live.
    • Ensure end-user risk disclosures and internal risk control measures align with regulatory expectations.
What We re Looking For:
    • Required:
    • Bachelor's degree in Risk Management, Finance, Economics, Engineering, or a related field.
    • 7+ years of experience in risk management, with at least 3 in crypto, fintech, or capital markets.
    • Strong understanding of crypto-specific risks, including custody, blockchain analytics, and liquidity sourcing.
    • Experience working with SCA or other financial regulators in the UAE or GCC.
    • Knowledge of MiCA, SCA Cat7, and UK MLR2017 risk-related obligations is a plus.
