What you'll do:

As a Strategy Manager based in Putrajaya, you will immerse yourself in a dynamic environment where your analytical skills are put to use daily. You will be responsible for conducting comprehensive market research that uncovers emerging trends and identifies new opportunities for growth.

Building relationships with external partners such as start-ups or government agencies will be central to your role; you’ll manage these collaborations with empathy and commitment to mutual success. You’ll also contribute significantly to the formulation of business strategy aligned with group objectives while overseeing the execution of key projects. Regularly reviewing investments ensures ongoing improvement while your reporting keeps senior management informed. Coordinating innovation initiatives allows you to nurture creativity within teams. Your day-to-day responsibilities will be varied but always focused on delivering value through collaborative effort.

  • Conduct thorough market research and analysis to identify industry trends, opportunities, and challenges that inform strategic decision-making.
  • Translate complex market insights into actionable strategies designed to enhance competitive advantage and drive sustainable business growth.

  • Provide insightful reports to senior management and stakeholders on strategy execution as well as investment outcomes.
  • Coordinate innovation initiatives and projects that foster creativity and continuous improvement throughout the organisation.
  • Take on ad-hoc responsibilities as needed to support strategic initiatives, investment activities, M&A transactions, and business development efforts.
