About ACID

ACID is a fractional communications consultancy designed for the next generation of startups and brands in Southeast Asia. We specialise in helping startups and SMEs from emerging industries find their voice within today's complex and multi-stakeholder digital information landscape. By offering strategic counsel, we advise business leaders on connecting meaningfully with their stakeholders, amplifying their narratives with intentionality and clarity, and driving business growth.

The Role

This is an independent contractor, commission-based role for a Business Development Partner based in Singapore that has no mandated hours. The role will be responsible for identifying new business opportunities and generating high-quality leads over an agreed-upon timeframe. Day-to-day tasks will include prospecting with potential clients, offering ACID's services, and taking relationships from 0 to close. The role involves cultivating relationships with a long term view of business development, identifying suitable clients whose values and objectives align with ACID's, and driving the sustainable growth of the consultancy's clientele.

Please do not apply if you are not based in Singapore. Your application will not be read.

What You'll Need

• Proven new business development and lead generation experience—we're sector-agnostic
• An established network of potential leads, preferably within the startup and SME spaces
• Excellent command of English and working proficiency in Mandarin Chinese
• Impeccable communication skills and a professional, charismatic, and refined demeanor—confident in representing the ACID brand professionally everywhere you go
• Ability to develop meaningful relationships effortlessly with senior leaders and C-suites across diverse business backgrounds in Singapore and across Southeast Asia
• An eye for distilling the business needs of prospects quickly and across a variety of settings and industries, and an equal ability to match them with the appropriate strategic or communications solutions
• Knowledge of the communications, branding and public relations fields would be a significant advantage
• Proven ability to stay on top of regular scheduled reporting and weekly updates while straddling your other professional commitments outside of this role, independently and remotely
• Meticulous, driven, and proactive—you're used to being a leader but can also follow when the situation calls for it
• Bachelor's degree in a related field

What's On Offer

• Competitive commission-only fee structure
• The opportunity to become a founding member of an upstart consultancy championing a fresh new model for advisory that leaves the broken and tired traditional agency model in the past (where it belongs)
• The chance to lead business development and shape growth in a young consultancy that aims to punch above its weight
• The autonomy to set your own targets and goals while growing an ambitious business and team from the ground up
