Operations
What You'll Do
Strategic Narrative & Planning
•
Drive the production of SEA's key strategic documents: quarterly business reviews, market landscape summaries, annual planning submissions and strategy papers - crisp, rigorous and decision-ready
•
Lead strategic work from framing the problem through analysis to a clear recommendation: business cases for SEA's strategic bets, scenario modelling, and decks and memos for local leads, and for carrying the region's agenda into senior leadership and global forums.
•
Produce SEA's submissions into APAC and global planning cycles.
Market & Competitive Intelligence
•
Monitor competitive, consumer and regulatory developments across SEA markets and maintain a full view of the industry
•
Anticipate emerging consumer and creator trends, surface critical signals to the leadership team early, and build the insight base functions need to define strategy
Business Planning & Budget
•
Drive the annual budget build for SEA - scenario work, trade-off analysis and the business-case layer behind resource decisions
•
Partner with FP&A and functional leads to keep plans grounded in financial reality
Operational Excellence & Collaboration
•
Partner with your peer MSO Manager on the region's operating rhythm - business reviews, planning cadences and performance tracking - contributing analytical depth to the operational agenda
•
Support and execute strategic projects and cross-functional initiatives that don't fit neatly into any one function, stepping in alongside teams and driving alignment across Music, Podcast, Marketing, Growth and Business Development
•
Use AI tools as a force multiplier in analytical and document work - and help embed them into how the SEA team plans and operates
Who You Are
•
A minimum of 7 - 10+ years experience in strategy consulting and/or in-house strategy roles, with exposure to Southeast Asian markets, ideally including media, consumer internet or subscription businesses
•
Outstanding analytical and modeling skills - you extract logic and meaningful conclusions from complex business problems, and build business cases that are rigorous and usable
•
Excellent writing and visual communication - your memos and decks are decision-quality without editing: structured, persuasive and instantly credible
•
Just as comfortable building a market business case as fixing a broken planning process
•
A self-starter and natural collaborator in flat, cross-functional organisations - you define the problem, structure the work and drive to output with minimal direction
•
Low ego, high drive - you measure your impact by the quality of the decisions you enable, not by who gets the credit
•
Fluent with AI tools in analytical and writing workflows - you use them to move faster and think sharper
•
Fluent in English; command of one or more regional languages is a plus
