About the team
You'll be part of a collaborative, results-driven Growth team that thrives on experimentation and innovation. We value creativity, data-driven decision-making, and a builder's mindset. Our team is passionate about finding new ways to deliver value to customers and scale Airwallex's impact globally. We support continuous learning, mentorship, and career growth, and we celebrate diverse perspectives and backgrounds.
What you'll do
As Associate Director, Growth Innovation, you'll lead the charge in building, testing, and scaling new growth levers across Airwallex. You'll own a portfolio of high-upside experiments-especially around Rewards and Campaigns-partnering with senior leaders across Growth, Product, Data Science, and Marketing to turn validated ideas into scalable programs that drive acquisition, activation, retention, and revenue. This is your chance to make a measurable impact in a fast-paced, high-growth environment. This role is based in Singapore.
Responsibilities:
  • Lead growth experiments end to end: Design the Airwallex roadmap for Rewards and Campaigns, set hypotheses, define target segments, and measure impact on acquisition, activation, retention, and revenue.
  • Identify and size new opportunities: Collaborate with the strategy team to define ideal customer profiles, priority use cases, and product adoption journeys; adapt Rewards and Campaigns for global and regional market differences.
  • Build the growth testing system: Establish frameworks, instrumentation, and review cadences for experiment design, governance, and decision logs; ensure reliable data and consistent, data-driven decisions.
  • Drive creative for growth: Partner with the Creative Lead to brief, test, and ship assets (visual, copy, video) aligned with brand and product strategy; run structured creative testing to lift conversion.
  • Deliver cross-functionally: Work with Product, Engineering, Marketing, and Data Science to scope, resource, and ship experiments; define rollout plans and operating processes to ensure scalability and compliance.
  • Influence strategy: Synthesize experiment insights into recommendations for roadmap, resourcing, and go-to-market; communicate progress and decisions to senior leadership to align with company priorities.
  • People leadership: Lead and scale a small team, mentoring and developing talent to raise the bar for execution quality.

Who you are
