About The Team

We are looking for a results-driven Vendor Acquisition Senior Executive/Manager to lead the sourcing, onboarding, and growth of retail vendor partners on our platform. This role owns the full acquisition funnel — from lead generation and pitching to contract closure and onboarding — with a focus on expanding supply across wet markets, pharmacies, convenience stores, and other neighborhood retail categories in key Philippine cities. Candidates with prior vendor/merchant acquisition experience are highly valued but not a must.

• Pitch platform value proposition, negotiate commercial terms (commission rates, contracts), and close partnership deals with vendor owners.
• Manage end-to-end onboarding — documentation, catalog/SKU setup, system integration, and go-live coordination.
• Track and report on acquisition KPIs; conduct market and competitor analysis to identify underserved areas and growth opportunities
• Build strong relationships with vendor owners to support long-term retention.
  
  

• 3-5 years of experience in vendor/merchant acquisition or field sales, ideally within e-commerce, on-demand delivery, or retail/FMCG distribution.
