Merchant Acquisition Associate

Can you turn cold leads into hot bites?

We've got an opening.

Sqkii is known for our flagship #HuntTheMouse campaign that gives away cold, hard cash to players who find hidden coins. If you've seen Singaporeans squatting in random spots, walking around with metal detectors, or sticking their heads under tables… you've probably seen one of our games in action. Besides our hunts, we also create custom games that bring players on other real life adventures and virtual journeys through their mobile screens — they're also super cool, just ask the mouse.

Right now, we're bringing #HuntTheMouse beyond the shores of Singapore to other cities across Asia-Pacific. We've visited 6 other cities so far, hidden a million dollars in Singapore in 2024, and oh boy do we have big plans ahead. Big plans = bigger team, so we're on the hunt (ha) for someone who wants to hop onto this thrilling ride.

As our Merchant Acquisition Associate, you'll hunt down and win over F&B merchants across Singapore from cafes and restaurants to hawker brands. You'll demo our payment and merchant solutions, coordinate smooth onboarding with the team, and turn cold leads into loyal partners while smashing ambitious monthly outlet targets. Fair heads-up: we're after someone confident, energetic, and well-spoken—most of all, someone who backs bold ideas. If that's you, come on in
