As Senior Associate, Global Expansion, CEO Office, you will support the end-to-end expansion of into new markets across APAC — from defining the market-entry strategy through licensing, product readiness, operational launch and preparation for commercial scale-up.
You will work closely with senior team members and executive leadership to help solve the complex regulatory, product and operating problems required to establish as a local financial platform in each market.
This role is based in Singapore.
Support new country expansion strategy: Help structure and size the opportunity for where and how expands next across APAC, working with senior leads on choosing the markets and defining what it takes to win in each one.
Support the market entry model: Help evaluate the licensing path, entity structure, and commercial model for each market, translating regulatory and licensing requirements into the operating model needs on the ground.
Shape the product roadmap: Work with Product and Engineering to turn regulatory and licensing requirements into concrete product scope and sequencing, so the roadmap is built around what's needed to launch and scale locally.
Support executive decision-making: Partner with senior team members to help frame decisions on where and how expands globally. Help prepare recommendations for executive leadership on market prioritization, launch readiness and investment decisions.
Contribute to the operating system for launches: "Vibe‑code" the tools, templates, and operating rhythms for market entry — using AI‑assisted research, drafting and automation (for example licence mapping, competitor analysis, Global Expansion dashboards, reporting) to systematise how expands and remove manual work.
Support governance: Help run the go/no‑go and launch‑readiness process — cross‑functional sign‑off, risk assessment, and mitigation plans across product, operational, regulatory, and commercial dimensions — so no single function becomes the blocker to going live.
Flex onto priority CEO Office initiatives beyond core market launches, such as strategic reviews, restructuring or migration projects, crisis response workstreams, or cross‑market structuring exercises where disciplined execution and clear communication are required.
