Company Overview

Treasure Global Inc. (NASDAQ: TGL) is a technology-driven company focused on integrating digital solutions into diverse business sectors. We specialize in fintech, e-commerce, artificial intelligence (AI), and online-to-offline (O2O) ecosystems, leveraging technology to enhance consumer experiences and create scalable, high-growth opportunities.

As part of our strategic expansion, TGL is actively incubating and funding multiple ventures, spanning consumer brands, digital platforms, AI-driven solutions, and retail innovations.

Role Overview

We are seeking a Business Development Manager to spearhead the launch and expansion of Mezzofy’s merchant voucher (digital coupon) platform in Malaysia. In this strategic, high-ownership role, you will shape and execute the go-to-market strategy from the ground up – driving market penetration, merchant acquisition, and partnership growth to establish Mezzofy as the go-to merchant rewards and digital coupon infrastructure in the country. Reporting directly to the CEO, the BD Manager will work cross-functionally with marketing, product, and data teams to ensure a successful rollout and scalable growth of this new venture. This is a high-impact role for a proactive leader excited about building a business in a fast-growing digital rewards market.

Key Responsibilities

Strategy & Market Launch

• Develop and execute the go-to-market strategy for Mezzofy’s platform in Malaysia, including market research, target segmentation, pricing, and rollout planning.
• Identify market opportunities and refine value propositions to effectively penetrate the SME and enterprise segments.

Merchant Acquisition & Sales Funnel

• Proactively identify, target, and onboard merchant clients (from small businesses to large enterprises) onto the Mezzofy platform.
• Manage the entire sales funnel – from lead generation, prospect pitching, and negotiation to closing deals and onboarding new merchants – ensuring a robust pipeline and steady conversion rates.

Partnerships & Market Presence

• Forge strategic partnerships (e.g. with industry associations, payment providers, and marketing agencies) to amplify Mezzofy’s market presence and drive adoption at scale.
• Represent TGL and Mezzofy at industry events, meetings, and presentations, serving as a key evangelist to promote the platform and build its brand in the Malaysian market.

Cross-Functional Collaboration

• Collaborate closely with the Marketing team to design and implement campaigns, promotions, and outreach programs that generate merchant leads and boost platform usage.
• Work with Data/Analytics teams to monitor performance metrics, user engagement, and coupon redemption data, using insights to adjust strategies and improve merchant success on the platform.
• Coordinate with Mezzofy’s product and technical teams to relay local market feedback and ensure the platform’s features/services align with Malaysian merchants’ needs.

Reporting & Growth Scaling

• Report directly to the CEO on business development performance, market feedback, key metrics, and ongoing strategy refinements.
• Take ownership of commercial targets (e.g. merchant count, transaction volume, revenue), and ensure the initiative meets its growth projections and revenue goals within the first year and beyond.
• Plan for scale-up by outlining future team structure, operational processes, and growth strategies as the merchant base and platform usage expand. (This role may evolve to lead a larger sales/business development team as the venture grows.)

Education:

• Bachelor’s degree in Business, Marketing, Finance or a related field. (MBA or other relevant master’s degree is a plus.)

Experience:

• 5–8+ years of experience in business development, sales, or strategic partnerships, with a track record of driving growth and closing deals – preferably in tech, fintech, SaaS, or digital platform environments.
• Proven experience launching new products or entering new markets is highly desirable. (Experience in the digital payments, e-commerce, or loyalty/rewards sector is a strong advantage.)
• Demonstrated success in engaging and managing both SME and enterprise clients, including building relationships with senior decision-makers and navigating longer sales cycles for enterprise deals.

• Strategic & Analytical: Ability to craft market entry strategies and make data-driven decisions; strong business acumen to identify growth opportunities and optimize sales approaches.
