General Manager, USA

KAST is redefining stablecoin banking for global citizens, crypto professionals, Web3-native businesses, and high-inflation markets seeking USD-backed banking. We’re building the world’s first truly global money app including crypto cards, local accounts, and global payouts in a premium product with top acceptance rates.

Backed by leading investors and led by the former APAC CEO of Circle, our team brings experience from Circle, Airwallex, Revolut, Wise, Grab, Zoom, AWS, and top OTC desks. Since July 2024, we’ve scaled from zero to nearly a million users, becoming the go-to card for the crypto community.

By building directly on-chain, we offer what traditional financial rails can’t: instant yield, flexible collateralized lending, and enhanced investment products. Our cards bring stablecoins to life: spend at 100M+ merchants, withdraw at ATMs, and enable new ways to access credit.

Our culture is velocity × excellence. We move fast, obsess over product quality, and aim to outpace legacy players. Our ambition is clear: to build the next generation of financial services and make KAST the #1 stablecoin bank globally.

KAST is looking for a General Manager to lead our US operations, based out of our new hub in New York. This is a critical leadership role responsible for significantly scaling the existing US business, successfully launching a new, strategic KAST Business offering, and building a high-performing team from the ground up.

• Define and execute the US market strategy to achieve aggressive growth targets for the existing KAST business.
• Manage P&L for the US operation, driving revenue growth, operational efficiency, and profitability.

• Collaborate with Product, Engineering, and Legal teams to ensure a successful market-ready launch.
• Establish early adoption and traction for the new offering, iterating based on market feedback.
• Build and scale a high-calibre, multi-functional US team, including hiring for key leadership and operational roles.
• Cultivate a strong, mission-driven culture that aligns with KAST’s global values.
• Mentor and develop team members, fostering a culture of accountability, innovation, and high performance.
• Serve as the primary leader and representative for KAST in the US market, engaging with key stakeholders, partners, and regulators.

• 10+ years of progressive leadership and general management experience, with a significant portion spent in the Fintech, Payments, or Stablecoin sectors.
• Must have demonstrable experience working at a high-growth startup, with a deep understanding of the speed, ambiguity, and resourcefulness required to succeed in a rapidly scaling environment.
• Proven track record of successfully launching and scaling business lines in the US market.
• Exceptional leadership skills with the proven ability to recruit, lead, and inspire high-performing, geographically distributed teams.
• Strong financial and analytical skills, with a history of managing P&L and making data-driven strategic decisions.

Work at the forefront of crypto, payments, and fintech. At KAST, you’ll have high ownership, zero bureaucracy, and a direct impact on building the world’s first truly global stablecoin-first bank.
