Project Coordinator

**Project Coordinator - Business Development (Southeast Asia)**:

- On behalf of Intralink _Are you interested in innovation and sustainability?

Are you interested in technology and curious how people, ideas and technologies from all corners of the earth come together to create a self-driving car, a fuel cell, or a life-saving medical device?

Do you want to help international entrepreneurs bring their ideas to life with some of the largest brands in Asia, and play a role in helping Asian corporations to digitalise and decarbonise their operations?

If that’s yes to all three, you may be who we are looking for to join our team.

You’ll work alongside a diverse group of 120+ business development consultants with a deep specialism in East Asia. Over 33 years in the business, we’ve helped more than 1,000 western tech startups and scaleups establish and grow in China, Japan, Korea, Taiwan and Southeast Asia - generating upwards of $750 million in revenues for our clients.

We’re focused on the technologies and ideas that are helping to solve the world’s social and environmental challenges. And we’re growing our team in Singapore. So, if you think you’re up for the challenge, read on - and apply.

You’ll be managing the entire sales and licensing cycle - from initial lead generation to outreach, negotiation, closing deals, and account management.

In your day-to-day, you’ll be identifying, meeting, pitching to and gathering crucial feedback from your clients’ potential customers and partners in Southeast Asia, developing a sales funnel and fine-tuning the market strategy.

You’ll be working closely with your clients and providing them with key progress indicators in the form of meeting notes, reports, and sync calls.

When the time is right, you will arrange for your clients to visit Southeast Asia. You’ll be their local expert - taking them to key customer meetings, interpreting and providing the incredibly important cultural context to business conversations.
