Vertalo connects and enables the digital asset ecosystem. Our Transfer Agency platform uses traditional database and blockchain technology to manage cap table data and bring secondary liquidity to investors in private securities. The private securities markets are huge, yet antiquated. Vertalo is changing that landscape.

Think of a traditional cap table reimplemented for the emerging digital securities sector (meaning soon, all private securities). Our focus on digital securities and secondary liquidity sets us apart from larger incumbents. We are well positioned in this emerging market and offer amazing growth potential. There are extensive near-term opportunities and longer-term exit scenarios for our company.

You will use your extensive Transfer Agency knowledge and experience to rapidly deploy product that appeals to our market, then figure out how to scale it. You will use your experience gleaned from traditional Transfer Agents to build the Transfer Agent of the future.

In this newly created role, you will be responsible for the daily processing of shareholder presentations related to various transfer agent activities. You will be responsible for reviewing all paperwork associated with the presentation, and the subsequent processing or verification of the transaction.
