Job Description

Get to Know the Team

The Marketplace team works with Mobility teams across Southeast Asia to manage driver supply, consumer pricing, and marketplace strategy. You'll dig into data, surface insights, and build solutions that move the needle on business outcomes. The team owns marketplace products and keeps the marketplace healthy and performing well. You'll join a regional setup with primary focus in Malaysia — you'll work with local leadership while stay connected to the broader regional agenda.

Get to Know the Role

You'll own the health and strategic direction of the Malaysia Mobility Marketplace — combining data-driven thinking with business strategy to drive real impact on the ground.

You'll be the go-to person for the Malaysia mobility marketplace, leading the local team while also representing Malaysia in regional conversations.

You will report to our Head of Mobility Marketplace, and you will be based onsite at our Grab Malaysia office.

Key ownership areas include:

• Defining and driving the country strategy for driver-partner supply health, productivity, quality, and retention
• Owning consumer pricing frameworks to grow the business sustainably and profitably
• Leading country-level strategic projects focused on service quality and platform reliability
• Representing the Malaysia mobility marketplace team in both local and regional discussions
• Developing and mentoring the rest of the Malaysia mobility marketplace team

The Critical Tasks You Will Perform

• Define and own the strategic vision for consumer pricing and marketplace mechanics for GrabCar in Malaysia, keeping it aligned with growth targets and profitability goals
• Design and iterate on driver-partner engagement models and incentive structures to drive healthy acquisition, retention, and cost efficiency
• Lead initiatives to improve platform reliability and ride experience, working with cross-functional teams to make things better for both passengers and drivers
• Collaborate with Product and Data Science teams on mobility-related features and algorithms (e.g., dynamic pricing, ride matching, surge) to improve marketplace performance
• Be a thought partner to regional Product teams, helping shape the product roadmap based on what the Malaysia market actually needs
• Monitor marketplace metrics, investigate anomalies, and translate data into clear, actionable recommendations for senior stakeholders
• Run end-to-end experiments — from design and rollout to analysis — to test and validate new ideas
• Manage, develop, and mentor your team, helping them grow both analytically and strategically

Qualifications

What Essential Skills You Will Need

• At least 5 years of relevant experience in strategy, consulting, product management, or data analytics at a tech company or similar environment
• Experience managing a small team, with a genuine interest in people development
• Comfortable working with large datasets with hands-on experience with SQL.
• Experience using AI productivity tools (e.g., Cursor) to speed up analysis and solution development
• Experience driving P&L impact through strategic projects — whether through revenue growth, cost savings, or efficiency gains
• Experience designing or working with pricing frameworks or incentive structures in a marketplace or ride-hailing context
• Comfortable managing multiple stakeholders with different priorities, and able to navigate ambiguity well
• Experience presenting to senior leadership and translating data into decisions
