Job description

Lead commercial growth. Shape omnichannel strategy. Redefine regional consumer connection.

We work with brands that don’t just follow markets — they move them. We’re now leading the search for an ASEAN Head of Consumer on behalf of a fast-growing consumer business group anchored in Indonesia, with ambitions across the region.

This is a pivotal commercial leadership role — driving end-to-end P&L ownership , omnichannel strategy , and ASEAN market expansion , starting with Indonesia and scaling into Singapore, Malaysia, the Philippines, and Thailand.

If you’ve run country or regional businesses, understand what it takes to localize consumer playbooks , and can lead teams across both brick and click , this is your next move.

What You’ll Own

Regional Consumer & P&L Leadership

  • Lead the Indonesia business while preparing market entries across ASEAN.
  • Own full commercial performance : retail, e-commerce, marketplace, and distribution.
  • Build country-level strategies grounded in data, shopper insight, and retail conditions.

Omnichannel Execution & Consumer Experience

  • Drive consistency across all consumer touchpoints : from offline retail to marketplaces to DTC.
  • Ensure merchandising, pricing, stock, visibility, and campaigns hit market-by-market benchmarks.
  • Collaborate closely with marketing and product to deliver standout, localized brand moments.
  • Brand & Partner Development

  • Manage global and regional brand partnerships, owning commercial terms and trade outcomes.
  • Shape portfolio expansion — from third-party to private label — while protecting brand integrity.
  • Stay one step ahead of consumer shifts, market trends, and competitive moves.
  • Team Building & ASEAN Expansion

  • Recruit and lead high-performing teams across the region, developing future country GMs and commercial leads.
  • Work closely with founders and C-levels to define go-to-market strategies for new countries and channels.
  • Identify whitespace — new retail formats, channels, and monetization opportunities.
  • Requirements

    WHAT YOU BRING

  • 10+ years in commercial or GM roles — ideally across beauty, lifestyle, retail, or FMCG .
  • OR you have proven track record in market expansions within ASEAN market
  • Proven P&L leadership , team building, and omnichannel execution across at least 2 ASEAN markets .
  • Deep understanding of how Southeast Asian consumers shop, engage, and switch.
  • Strong operator instincts — paired with strategic chops to influence boardroom decisions.
  • Clear, confident communicator — able to galvanize cross-functional teams, partners, and internal stakeholders.
  • Fluent in English.
  • Willing to relocate to Jakarta Indonesia
  • This is not just a market role — it’s a mandate to scale consumer connection across borders . If you're ready to shape what beauty retail looks like in ASEAN, we’d like to hear from you. Apply or connect with the team at Substance.
