About this role
HEAD OF BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT
$180k – $220k • meaningful equity
ABOUT NOVIG
Novig is building America's #1 sports prediction market. Our mission is to financialize and democratize sports trading - taking a closed system run by casinos and turning it into a fair, efficient, two-sided market where the power sits with users.
With Novig recently becoming a CFTC-designated market — the fastest designation of its kind in US history— we're bringing the prediction market built for sports fans nationwide.
We're backed by some of Silicon Valley's top investors — Pantera, Forerunner, Lux, NFX, Paul Graham, and Joe Montana — who have collectively invested over $100M behind this vision.
ABOUT THE ROLE
Every trade on Novig needs someone on the other side. Liquidity providers are that someone. They quote the prices and tighten the spreads that make a market worth trading. As our Head of Business Development, you’ll own those relationships.
You’ll be the go-to partner for the trading firms and market makers already working with Novig. You’ll bring new liquidity providers onto the exchange and shape the incentives and deal terms that keep them here. You’ll work with Markets, Analytics, and Developer Relations, and you’ll directly shape how deep our order books get.
WHO YOU ARE AND WHAT YOU WILL DO
- You’re the go-to partner for our largest LPs. You learn their goals and help them scale their relationship with Novig.
- You grow our LP base. You find and onboard new LPs, working with Developer Relations to get them live.
- You partner with Markets and Analytics to structure incentives that work for Novig and our LPs.
- You track performance. You monitor each LP’s trading performance and market share, and you send regular read-outs to the team and to partners.
- You represent Novig at industry events and LP meetings.
- You have 5+ years owning high-stakes relationships, whether in TradFi, trading, sports, fintech, or another industry entirely. Experience working with trading firms is a plus.
- You speak the language. You can talk spreads, fees, and risk with a trader on their terms, and you follow how prediction market structure is changing.
- You bring a network across prop shops, market makers, or sports trading desks.
WHY WORK HERE, IN THE WORDS OF THE PEOPLE WHO DO
“I work with extremely stellar people, I own real systems, and decisions happen fast. No politics, no waiting for needless red tape. If something’s broken, I fix it. If I build something good, it ships.”
“The people! They’re smart, thoughtful, fun to work with and passionate about their craft.”
“I’m having the most fun I’ve had in my entire career.”
If you want responsibility, trust, and the chance to help build the future of sports prediction markets - take your shot, we’d love to connect.
NOT FOR EVERYONE
- Our work is tied to live sports - that means potential nights, weekends, and pressure included.
- If you need clear swim lanes, a heavy process, or someone to tell you what to do, this won’t be the right environment.
COMPENSATION & BENEFITS
- $180k – $220k base, benchmarked at top-tier tech companies
- Meaningful equity for every employee, regardless of role
- 100% health premiums covered
- 99% dental & vision covered

RoleSprint is not the employer and not a recruiter. Applications are made on the employer’s own site and never reach us; what RoleSprint does is help you decide whether a role is worth your time and prepare for it if it is.
