We have high ambitions to deliver the breadth and depth of the global Digital Assets offering to the firm’s EU-based clients.

- Work in our Digital Assets European Continental base in Paris
- Advise internal stakeholders and clients on Goldman Sachs’ digital assets product offering
- Contribute to conversations with clients and assist in the execution of various product initiatives / transactional activities (such as tokenization across various asset classes)
- Support the team with regional initiatives and expansion efforts
- Work with different arms of the firm in EMEA, APAC, and AMER across the private and public side
- Navigate the firm efficiently and interact with internal stakeholders, legal, compliance, and government affairs

- Structured and succinct presentation and communication
