About the Role 💭

We’re looking for a Head of Commercial - Asia to lead and accelerate Quad Lock’s next phase of growth across the region.

Reporting to our Chief Commercial Officer, you’ll own the commercial performance of the region across business-to-business (B2B) wholesale, Shopify Asia direct-to-consumer (D2C) and regional marketplaces, leading regional strategy while remaining close to execution. You’ll grow key distributor and retail partnerships, accelerate our presence across platforms including Tmall, JD.com, Shopee and Lazada, and identify new opportunities for geographic and channel expansion across the region.

This is a hands-on leadership role for someone who can set the commercial direction, build strong in-market relationships and turn growth opportunities into results. You’ll also lead our China D2C and Asian Marketplace teams and work closely with our global B2B and D2C leaders.

This role will be based in China from one of our regional offices in Shanghai or Shenzhen. Candidates will need to be currently based in China or willing to relocate, with existing working rights in China. Regular travel across the region will also be part of the role.
