2 hours ago


Makati City, National Capital Region, Philippines Angkas Full time ₱4,500,000 - ₱7,500,000 per year

The Senior Manager for Special Projects & Strategy will serve as a cross-functional leader for the company's highest-impact initiatives. This role is responsible for leading strategic projects end-to-end from problem definition and data analysis to execution and stakeholder management, and will act as a key bridge between leadership, operations, and external partners. This individual must be highly analytical, commercially sharp, and comfortable operating in ambiguity. The role requires someone who can distill complex data into executive-level insights, interface confidently with senior leadership and investors, and drive execution across multiple teams.

This role sits at the intersection of strategy, execution, and leadership. You will work directly with founders and the senior team to shape how the company grows, scales, and competes. If you want exposure to how decisions are REALLY made and how companies actually move, this role is for you.

  • Prepare investor decks, metrics, and strategic narratives

4. Cross-Functional Leadership

  • Work closely with Operations, Product, Marketing, Finance, and Legal teams
  • Align diverse stakeholders toward shared objectives
  • Push execution without formal authority

5. Business Development & Partnerships

  • Evaluate new commercial opportunities, products, or pilots
  • Build business cases for new verticals and initiatives
  • Support partner negotiations and strategic alliances

Requirements

  • 5–8+ years experience in strategy, consulting, operations, investment or startups
  • Strong analytical background with ability to work hands-on with data
  • Proven ability to manage high-value projects from end-to-end
  • Comfortable communicating with senior leadership and external stakeholders
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills
  • Ability to thrive in fast-paced, ambiguous environments
  • Strong commercial judgment and business intuition
