Job Description

We’re looking for a Senior Business Development Manager to join our Wise Platform team, focused on driving growth across South East Asia.

This is a high-impact role with full ownership of two priority markets. You will be responsible for building and converting pipeline, structuring complex partnerships, and delivering revenue end-to-end — from first engagement through to go-live and ramp.

This role requires someone who is hands-on, detail-oriented, and commercially rigorous, with the ability to operate independently and drive momentum across complex, long-cycle deals.

Why this role
This is an opportunity to own and scale two high-potential markets, working on complex cross-border payment solutions with leading financial institutions — while building the infrastructure that’s reshaping how money moves globally.
You’ll be working on real problems that impact customers at scale, partnering with some of the most important players in the ecosystem, and operating in a team that values ownership, speed, and high standards.

The role offers:

  • End-to-end ownership of markets and deals
  • Exposure to top-tier banks and PSPs across South East Asia
  • The opportunity to work on complex, high-impact problems, not transactional sales
  • A chance to shape how Wise grows its global payments infrastructure
  • A high-performing, low-ego team with strong commercial standards

What You’ll Do

  • Own business development across Indonesia and the Philippines end-to-end
  • Build high-quality, qualified pipeline and actively manage it with clear prioritisation
  • Originate, structure, and close complex partnerships with banks and PSPs
  • Drive deals forward with clear next steps, risk identification, and execution plans
  • Work cross-functionally to design and deliver partner solutions
  • Stay closely involved post-signing to ensure successful launch and revenue ramp
  • Develop a deep understanding of your markets and build a clear strategy to win
  • Bring structured thinking to forecasting, pipeline management, and deal execution

Qualifications

  • Strong experience in business development or partnerships within payments or financial services
  • Experience selling cross-border payments, APIs, or infrastructure solutions is highly preferred
  • Proven track record of owning and closing complex deals with banks or financial institutions
  • Highly driven and self-directed, with the ability to operate in ambiguity
  • Detail-oriented and hands-on, comfortable going deep into product, operational, and regulatory topics
  • Strong commercial judgment and pipeline discipline
  • Solution-oriented mindset — able to unblock deals and move them forward
  • Curious and proactive, with a strong desire to understand markets deeply
  • Excellent stakeholder management and communication skills

Additional Information

Total Compensation From: SGD 245,000 per annum (base + RSUs)

What you need to know about the Melbourne Tech Scene

Home to 650 biotech companies, 10 major research institutes and nine universities, Melbourne is among one of the top cities for biotech. In fact, some of the greatest medical advancements were conceptualized and developed here, including Symex Lab's "lab-on-a-chip" solution that monitors hormones to predict ovulation for conception, and Denteric's vaccine for periodontal gum disease. Yet, the thousands of people working in the city's healthtech sector are just getting started, to say nothing of the tech advancements across all other sectors.
