Job Description

Our client is a Singapore-based fintech group with regional hubs in Lithuania and Dubai, and operations in Thailand, Indonesia, and the Philippines. Their operation is fully legal and compliant, with licenses in multiple countries and jurisdictions globally. Via their flagship product, they offer a cross-border payment solution infrastructure for money transfer operators, local banks, and corporates. With their mobile application, their retail customers and SMEs across Southeast Asia can send money to their families, friends, and business partners around the world.



Our client is seeking an ambitious Sales Manager to accelerate client acquisition, grow settlement volumes, and strengthen corridor activity within their Digital Assets business line. This role is hands-on and results-driven - ideal for someone with a strong network across PSPs, OTC traders, crypto exchanges, or financial institutions who can drive business volume directly into our clients network. You will own the full sales lifecycle — from prospecting and negotiation to onboarding and activation — and will play a key role in achieving the company’s TPV and revenue targets.
