ARE Job Description: Protein Transition Manager, Thailand

Location: Thailand

Contract: Full-time - Minimum 2 years

Reporting to: Director of Protein Transition, working with the regional Protein Transition team. No direct reports, but managerial decision-making.

Asia Research and Engagement (ARE) brings the voice of investors to Asia’s sustainable development challenges. We run direct and corporate engagement programs across Asia to address strategic sustainability issues and use dialogue, shareholder escalation tools, research and benchmarking to encourage senior decision-makers.

ARE launched the Asia Protein Transition Platform with collaborating investors in 2022, to help drive more sustainable and responsible protein. The platform hosts an aspirational 2030 vision and goals for the protein programme, and sets out specific investor-expected protein sustainability disclosures for Asian food and agriculture businesses, including for plant/alternative proteins.

ARE Protein Transition team is seeking a passionate, mission-driven Thai professional who appreciates the sustainability, health and humane potential of plant-proteins with skills in corporate engagement and supply chains. The person will need to scope the foodservice industry in Thailand and beyond, and engage listed foodservice companies in Thailand, to drive corporate commitment and targets for plant-proteins. This position will also involve working with allied Thai nutrition, health, sustainability and civil society organisations and experts. While leveraging the varied expertise of the ARE protein team, this role will effectively become the team expert, keeping abreast of the plant-protein sector and its corporate adoption and scaling, learning from global precedents, strategies and best practices relevant for Asia.

Duties and Responsibilities:

- Drive project execution, monitor and report as relevant to the Thailand project.
- Conduct situational and stakeholder analysis, and stakeholder sensing on the foodservice industry, with a focus on Thailand, but also global examples.
- Develop and manage effective relationships with allied sectors and organisations, collaborating and co-hosting relevant events and communication outputs.
- Lead engagement with relevant listed foodservice companies in Thailand and some possible Thai banks.
- Liaise with Thai communication agencies, allies, and the ARE communication team for advocacy, communication assets, and media pick-up.
- Contribute to team insights for the acceleration of plant-protein adoption and related knowledge.

Requirements and competencies:

- Food corporate or advocacy NGO background with a minimum of 5 years of corporate engagement, supply chain, or marketing experience, ideally based in Thailand.
- A track record of collaboration towards a common goal and/or key corporate outcomes, ideally in the Thai foodservice sector.
- A passion for plant proteins and related benefits.
- Proficiency in spoken and written Thai and English.
- Adequate proficiency in Microsoft Office Suite, ideally stakeholder management software.
- Strong communication and interpersonal skills, and some external communication/media-facing skills.
- Able to work independently and in a team, remotely.

Please provide your latest CV and a cover letter outlining your interest, skills and relevance against the requirements.
