Sedona Asia is a technology consulting firm helping clients across the region with AI implementation, data & business intelligence (BI), cloud, and SimCorp Dimension advisory and delivery.
We're looking for a Business Development Manager to grow our footprint across the APAC region, with a primary focus on Hong Kong, Singapore, and Thailand. This person will open doors, build relationships, and bring in new project opportunities for our AI transformation, BI, cloud, and SimCorp Dimension practices across these markets, reporting directly to the Managing Director.
What you’ll do
- 01Identify, approach, and develop new business opportunities for AI implementation/transformation, BI, cloud, and SimCorp Dimension projects across Hong Kong, Singapore, and Thailand, with a primary focus on financial services clients (banks, asset managers, insurers, and other financial institutions).
- 02Build and maintain a strong network across these markets — knowing where to go, who to talk to, and how to open the right doors with target clients in each location.
- 03Manage the full sales cycle: prospecting, client meetings, proposal support, negotiation, and closing, across multiple markets.
- 04Work closely with our consulting and delivery teams in each market to shape client proposals and ensure what we sell matches what we can deliver.
- 05Represent Sedona Asia at industry events, conferences, and client meetings across the region.
- 06Keep track of market trends, competitor activity, and client needs across Hong Kong, Singapore, and Thailand's financial sectors to help shape our go-to-market approach.
- 07Report directly to the Managing Director on pipeline, opportunities, and progress against targets across all three markets.
- 08Travel regularly across Hong Kong, Singapore, and Thailand (and occasionally elsewhere in APAC) as needed to meet clients.
What you’ll bring
- Bachelor's degree in Business, Finance, or a related field.
- 5+ years of business development or sales experience, ideally within financial services, technology consulting, or related professional services.
- Solid understanding of the business landscape across Hong Kong, Singapore, and/or Thailand — existing network and credibility with decision-makers at banks, asset managers, or insurers is highly valued.
- Comfortable discussing AI, BI, cloud, or financial systems (such as SimCorp Dimension) at a business level — deep technical expertise is not required, but genuine interest and ability to learn is.
- Confident communicator, self-driven, and comfortable working independently to generate leads across multiple markets.
- Willing and able to travel regularly across the region as required.
- Excellent command of English (spoken and written).
Nice to have
- Fluency in Cantonese, Mandarin, or Thai depending on your market focus.
The offer
Competitive base salary plus an attractive commission structure (potentially based on net new revenue closed) tied to business generated.
The opportunity to build and shape Sedona Asia's presence across three key APAC markets for a growing regional consulting firm.
Exposure to cutting-edge AI transformation, BI, and cloud projects, alongside experienced consulting teams across the region.
A flexible, entrepreneurial environment where initiative is recognized and rewarded.
