    Job Description

    SUMMARY

    International trade is a trillion-dollar business, with air freight representing ~35% of the addressable market. In Southeast Asia alone, the total market size is ~US$4B+, with sector growth driven by a once-in-a-generation opportunity; e-commerce penetration. E-commerce fulfillment in itself is already a US$2B+ space, growing 30% per year. As an operator transporting cargo to over 110 airports across Asia, we are at the frontlines of this large, but unsexy space. This white space motivates us to redefine the way the supply chain operates, expands our suite of services to get closer to the end-customers, and to build products that empower both small business owners as well as large enterprises.

    We are looking for entrepreneurial individuals with a passion for people engagement and helping others with their problems. In this role, you must be comfortable engaging with prospects, pitching services and solutions and have excellent time-management skills. You will be expected to be performing this role on a full-time basis. The role reports to the Solutions and AcquisitionManager.
