About the Role
Drives Ondo’s outbound onboarding to exchanges, brokers, custodians, banks, and service providers. Owns onboarding end-to-end, including document gathering, KYB/KYC applications, Legal and Compliance coordination, and status maintenance across multiple workstreams. Requires organization, attention to detail, and reliability under pressure. Will co-own the onboarding function and eventually manage an independent book of work.
Responsibilities
- Execute across the vendor onboarding lifecycle: gathering entity documentation, completing KYB/KYC applications, tracking outstanding items, and following up with counterparties and internal stakeholders.
- Prepare document packages in response to counterparty requirements, including corporate structure materials, beneficial ownership disclosures, AML certifications, authorized signatory forms, and tax documents.
- Track progress across multiple concurrent onboardings, keeping each record current with clear status, blockers, and next actions.
- Drive responses to incoming due diligence questionnaires (DDQs), coordinating internally to gather accurate information and owning the response through submission.
- Route contracts and agreements through Legal for review and own the follow-up to keep things moving.
- Coordinate with Compliance on document requests, KYC refresh cycles, and AML certifications.
- Flag delays and blockers proactively to internal stakeholders and to the relevant counterparty.
- Keep onboarding records accurate and up to date in shared trackers, ensuring every active deal has a known stage, owner, and next action.
- File executed agreements, completed DDQs, and supporting materials in the appropriate locations for audit readiness.
- Utilize AI tools for drafting communications, organizing documentation, building tracking tools, and accelerating repetitive work.
- Serve as a primary point of contact with vendors during onboarding, representing Ondo externally.
- Write clear, professional communications on Ondo’s behalf.
- Keep internal stakeholders informed of status, blockers, and expected timelines.
Requirements
- A track record of independently running operations, vendor management, compliance, or legal-coordination workstreams end to end, ideally in financial services or another regulated environment.
- Demonstrated ability to manage multiple open workstreams simultaneously without missing details or deadlines.
- Comfortable following up persistently with external counterparties and internal teams to keep things moving.
- Strong written communication skills for professional external emails, clear internal updates, and organized documentation.
- Proficiency with document management and workflow tools (e.g., Google Drive, Notion, DocuSign).
- Fluency with AI tools for drafting, organizing, analyzing, and building lightweight tooling.
- Working knowledge of entity documentation (e.g., incorporation certificates, beneficial ownership disclosures, W-8s) and institutional KYB/KYC processes.
