BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT DIRECTOR A technology company is preparing to launch a cutting-edge consumer communication platform in Indonesia, following successful market validation on other country. As they enter Indonesia as their next priority market, they are seeking a Business Development Director who will play a pivotal role in building and launching the business from the ground up.


What you'll do:

As Business Development Director, your day-to-day responsibilities will centre around launching a consumer communication platform in Indonesia. You’ll be entrusted with translating a globally validated product into something uniquely suited for Indonesian consumers. Your work will involve defining go-to-market priorities based on deep market insights, driving commercial execution through partnership-building and operational deployment, and ensuring rapid adoption via creative marketing strategies. Success in this role requires you to operate with significant ownership often with limited initial infrastructure while fostering collaboration between local partners and international teams.

  • You will take full responsibility for launching the consumer communication platform in Indonesia, ensuring that all aspects of market entry are managed with care and attention to detail.
  • You will translate an existing global product into a locally relevant proposition by understanding cultural nuances and adapting features for Indonesian users.
  • You will define go-to-market priorities by conducting thorough market research and identifying key opportunities for growth and expansion.
  • You will personally drive commercial execution by establishing strategic partnerships with local businesses, government agencies, and other stakeholders.
  • You will oversee deployment activities including operational setup, resource allocation, and initial infrastructure development to ensure smooth roll out.
  • You will lead efforts to achieve rapid market adoption through targeted marketing campaigns, user engagement initiatives, and community outreach.


What you bring:

The ideal candidate for Business Development Director brings extensive experience launching technology products or platforms in emerging markets, especially those requiring careful localisation. Your understanding of Indonesian consumer behaviour is crucial for adapting global solutions into meaningful local propositions. You excel at building partnerships thanks to your collaborative nature; your interpersonal skills foster trust among stakeholders.

Familiarity with digital communication platforms means you can bridge gaps between technical teams abroad and operational staff locally. Sensitivity towards cultural differences ensures that every aspect of localisation is handled thoughtfully. Organisational prowess helps you juggle competing demands while keeping everyone engaged positively.

  • Your proven experience in launching technology products or platforms within emerging markets demonstrates your dependability and commitment to success.
  • Your deep understanding of Indonesian consumer behaviour enables you to connect empathetically with users and tailor offerings accordingly.
  • Your ability to build strong partnerships with local businesses showcases your collaborative spirit and interpersonal skills.
  • Your familiarity with digital communication platforms allows you to share knowledge effectively across teams and networks.
  • Your sensitivity to cultural differences ensures that localisation efforts are considerate and inclusive.


What sets this company apart:

This international technology company stands out for its proven track record of successful launches in diverse markets and backed by a sizeable engineering team, the organisation offers candidates the chance to work on impactful projects that shape digital ecosystems globally. The company values collaboration above all else: whether connecting local partners or sharing expertise across borders, every employee is encouraged to contribute ideas openly within a supportive network. Their focus on localisation ensures that products resonate deeply with end-users while respecting cultural sensitivities.

What's next:

If you feel ready to help launch an exciting new platform in Indonesia and want to be part of an inclusive team shaping digital futures, this is your moment!
