**The who.**:
We're rapidly scaling our venture and innovation initiatives across Asia, and we are looking for our next innovation manager who will be able to strategically deliver on the impactful programmes that we have. This role is one of limitless possibilities, where you're welcome to think and operate like an entrepreneur and play an active role in creating impact across all the things we do. If you live and breathe startups, innovation, venture capital, and technology, and love to operate in a role where your efforts can create an impact in these circles, then read on to find out more.
**The role.**:
The innovation manager's role would focus on the strategy and execution of StartupX's innovation programmes and initiatives. You are responsible for delivering strategic success to our programmes, from conceptualisation, to planning, operations and execution.

- You will be expected to adapt to the face pace nature of programmes and that may require working on other aspects of the business.
