Blockchain Jobs and Cryptocurrency Jobs in London
The Crypto Market in the UK
As the crypto and digital assets sector continues to gain tremendous popularity amongst consumers and large financial institutions, regulatory frameworks are evolving at a rapid pace to keep up with the increased interest. According to reports, the crypto/digital assets market is still on its aggressive growth trajectory: about 9.8 million people in the UK - the equivalent of 19% of the country's entire population - owned cryptoassets in 2021.
These reports also state that by 2030, up to 20% of the global economy infrastructure will likely be reliant on blockchain-based systems.
From a hiring perspective, the rapid growth of the sector has translated into increased movement from professionals within the industry. With more and more crypto firms entering the market and enticing top digital assets talent with attractive compensation packages, blockchain professionals find themselves leaving their role more frequently than their traditional financial services counterparts. Several candidates are jumping between positions in a given year - some of them up to two to three times.
The Future of Blockchain Jobs and Crypto Jobs in London
In London - and across the United Kingdom - it is fair to say that the future of blockchain jobs and crypto jobs is looking bright, especially for governance-related functions such as compliance, financial crime, legal and cyber security. Since the sector is only in its infancy, there are some incredibly exciting times ahead.
With regulations expected to come in and disrupt the sector imminently, we can anticipate a sharp increase in compliance blockchain and cryptocurrency jobs in London and the UK. Compliance professionals in the crypto market will become more and more sought after, increasing cryptocurrency compliance roles in London, and blockchain firms will most likely offer incredibly competitive packages to secure the brightest talent.

Manchester
Manchester is known as one of the UK's main cities: beside London, the Greater Manchester area is the country's biggest centre for the financial and professional services sector, with 324,000 Manchester staff and generating £16.2 billion of GVA annually.
The city is notable for many things: its beautiful architecture, which ranges from Victorian inspiration to contemporary styles, its famous sports clubs and even its scientific output. After all, it was at the University of Manchester that Ernest Rutherford first split the atom, in 1917 precisely!
Getting around
Visiting Manchester and commuting to work is very easy once you are in the city. Its city centre is known to be quite compact: if you happen to live nearby, walking might be your best option to get around. But if you happen to live a little further away, you can either take the bus, the tram, the train, and so on. Make sure to download a travelling app like Google Maps or Citymapper on your phone to get route suggestions in real time.
