  • Market Intelligence: Stay up-to-date with trends in the fintech and travel industries to anticipate market shifts and identify new opportunities for innovation.

An ideal candidate has:

  • Strong interpersonal and communication skills to engage with stakeholders at all levels.

  • Familiarity with airline operations, challenges, and revenue streams, or previous experience working within the airline industry is a strong plus.
  • Proficiency in Mandarin is a bonus.

Perks and benefits of working with us:

  • Well-funded and proven startup with large ambitions, competitive salary and the upsides of pre-IPO equity packages.
