Vanguard Hires 'Head of Digital Assets' Amid Crypto Expansion

Vanguard, one of the largest asset managers in the world, is hiring a 'head of digital assets' to shape its approach to tokenization, stablecoins, and blockchain infrastructure.

The job description outlines a comprehensive role that goes beyond product testing, covering client-facing products, custody models, settlement workflows, and operational infrastructure.

This marks a significant shift for Vanguard, which has previously rejected certain crypto investment products, including crypto ETFs.
