The role

You’ll own a lifestyle partnership pipeline end-to-end: prospecting, pitching, negotiating, launching, and optimising deals that drive revenue and member activity. This is a hands-on commercial role for someone early in their career who already operates with strong ownership, pace, and discipline.

You will report directly to the Head of Commercial, Lifestyle

• Pitch partnership concepts confidently (value prop, commercial model, campaign mechanics) and iterate fast based on feedback
• Drive deals from first meeting to contract close, including commercials, terms, and internal approvals
• Coordinate internal stakeholders (marketing, product, finance, legal, operations) to launch partner offers on time
• Track performance against targets and improve results through optimisation (placement, mechanics, comms, partner readiness)
• Maintain clean, accurate reporting (CRM hygiene, forecasts, deal trackers, campaign post-mortems)
• Spot market opportunities, competitor moves, and partner insights to inform strategy

What we’re looking for

• 3–5 years in sales / business development with a clear, provable target-hitting track record.
• Competitive, always-on mindset; you move fast, stay resilient, and like winning.
• High adaptability in changing priorities and evolving business directions.
• Strong pitching and negotiation skills; confident with senior external stakeholders.
• Very high attention to detail (numbers, terms, deliverables, timelines, partner setup requirements).
• Strong working skills in Excel/Google Sheets and slides for proposals and performance reporting.

Nice to have

• Experience in partnerships, loyalty, marketplaces, fintech, travel, or lifestyle platforms
• Familiarity with commercial structures (rev share, cost per acquisition, vouchers, points funding, marketing fees)
• Existing network across Malaysian lifestyle brands
