Business Development Specialist/Manager

Open 17d

In 2026, Flexii (an on-demand work-matching platform operating in Hong Kong, Singapore, and Taiwan) is scaling its mission to "unlock people's potential" through flexible work. The Business Development Manager at Flexii is a strategic, "0→1→10" scale-up role focused on market expansion and building the future of work.

Role Overview

We are looking for an "Avengers-level" Business Development Manager to drive Flexii’s growth in Singapore. You will be responsible for identifying new market opportunities, designing go-to-market (GTM) strategies for core verticals like retail, hospitality, and logistics, and closing high-impact deals. This is a results-driven role for a mission-aligned leader who thrives in fast-changing startup environments.

Key Responsibilities

  • Market Expansion & Strategy: Design and execute localized GTM strategies for key industry verticals (Retail, Logistics, F&B, etc.) to drive Gross Merchandise Value (GMV) and revenue.
  • Conduct market analysis to stay ahead of staffing trends and competitor movements.
  • Pipeline & Revenue Management: Own the full sales lifecycle: from lead generation and prospecting to negotiating and closing profitable contracts.
  • Achieve and exceed quarterly/annual sales and profitability targets.
  • Customer-Centric Growth: Foster long-term relationships with "Customers" (business) to drive upsell and cross-sell opportunities.
  • Collaborate with Product and Customer Success teams to ensure the platform effectively addresses client staffing gaps.
  • Operational Leadership: Run KPI-driven PDCA (Plan-Do-Check-Act) cycles to optimize business-side growth.
  • Utilize CRM tools to maintain a transparent and efficient deal funnel.

Required Qualifications & Qualities

  • Experience: 5+ years of proven success in a startup or high-growth environment (e.g., HR Tech, FinTech, or Gig Economy marketplaces).
  • Mission Fit: Deep alignment with Flexii’s mission to provide fair, flexible, and accessible work for everyone.
  • Strategic Thinking: Ability to translate market insights into actionable tactics and understand platform unit economics.
  • Communication: Business-level proficiency in English; proficiency in Cantonese or Mandarin is highly advantageous for regional collaboration.
  • Mindset: A "hands-on owner" who is resilient, learns quickly from setbacks, and views team success as personal success.

Nice-to-Have

  • Knowledge of regional labor regulations and "Contract for Service" frameworks.
  • Experience in the technology or staffing industry.

Why Join Flexii?

Impact: Be part of a team redefining work for thousands of users across Asia.

Growth: Hands-on scale-up experience with a platform providing instant payments and hassle-free hiring.

Culture: Join a shared culture of respect, empowerment, and enthusiasm across Hong Kong, Taiwan, and Singapore.
