CEO of Systemic Trust

Location

This is an Alberta-based role located in Calgary, Alberta, and the successful candidate is expected to be based in, or willing to relocate to, the Calgary area. That said, consideration will be given to an exceptional candidate located in another Canadian province where the candidate can demonstrate the ability to fulfil the on-site, client-facing, and regulatory engagement demands of the role.

Frequent travel should be expected, driven primarily by client acquisition.

Systemic Trust Company (“STC”) is a special purpose trust corporation incorporated under the Loan and Trust Corporations Act (Alberta) and registered with Alberta Treasury Board and Finance (“ATBF”). STC provides institutional-grade digital asset custody services to accredited and institutional clients across Canada, specifically Canadian family offices and crypto-native funds seeking secure, compliant custody solutions for digital assets such as Bitcoin and Ethereum.

STC operates as a wholly owned subsidiary of DMG Blockchain Solutions Inc. (TSXV: DMGI).

The Chief Executive Officer holds ultimate accountability for leading STC from licensing to commercialization. This is a high-accountability, revenue-first mandate in a newly licensed Canadian digital asset custodian, and a sales-led CEO role requiring direct ownership of revenue generation rather than delegation. Success depends on the ability to personally originate and close institutional relationships particularly within Canadian family offices and crypto-native funds while building a credible and compliant platform in a competitive market.

The CEO is responsible for establishing institutional credibility, building a scalable custody platform, and stewarding STC’s governance framework in compliance with Alberta’s Loan and Trust Corporations Act and applicable securities legislation. The CEO reports to the Board of Directors and works in close partnership with the Chief Compliance Officer and Chief Technology Officer.
