Country Manager Taiwan

Description

Keycafe is looking for a self-starting, entrepreneurial, and analytical Taiwan Country Manager to jump-start our key exchange business in the region.

We’re looking for an individual who can drive and own our automated Key Exchange business in Taiwan. The candidate will be joining a team of highly engaged and motivated individuals who work hard and with purpose every day, and should be ready to take initiative, solve problems, and drive success as a valued member of the team. This role will require understanding of the local market and players, sales acumen, and the ability and attitude to “do what it takes” to generate substantial revenue in a promising market with a thriving sharing-economy industry (vacation rentals/carsharing etc).

A successful candidate will be expected to think and act both strategically and tactically. His/her performance will be evaluated ultimately via the revenue generated in Taiwan, and the preceding activities to achieve our revenue goals. He/she will focus on identifying potential locations (cafes/retail chains) to partner with and install our devices for public use, while establishing a maintenance/customer support process working with our global operations/customer support teams. In parallel he/she will identify and target potential enterprise opportunities to sell and deploy our devices in their venues/services for their own use.
