GROWTH MANAGER

Saigon, Full-time

BaseSGN is seeking a Growth Manager to drive business development — with a primary focus on bringing new clients and opportunities into Base, while also supporting the broadening of long-term relationships with existing clients.

You'll be building and running a proactive outbound pipeline, while staying connected to the full client ecosystem as part of one team working toward shared growth. This is not a delivery role: it sits at the front of the business, finding and advancing the opportunities that keep Base moving forward.

Location: On-site, Ho Chi Minh City

Start: At the earliest possible time

Responsibilities

Generate qualified business leads and build a robust, trackable pipeline—prospecting, qualifying, and developing relationships independent of existing accounts.

Identify and advance new client relationships across Base's target industries, running first and qualification meetings independently and bringing decision-ready opportunities to founders for prioritization and close.

Run discovery and qualification meetings solo by default; escalate to founders only against the defined triggers above — not on an ad hoc, case-by-case basis.

Lead response to inbound opportunities and RFPs, coordinating with creative and strategy leads on proposal development.

Develop Base's extended network (referral partners, past clients, industry contacts) into a structured, trackable pipeline rather than ad hoc opportunity flow.

Keep on top of market and industry trends to surface new expansion opportunities for founder evaluation.

Facilitate initial meetings with prospects, looping in founders and creative leadership at the appropriate stage.

Partner with Account Managers on large-scale expansion opportunities within existing accounts — with clear handoff criteria so ownership doesn't overlap.

Support pricing and positioning for new business pitches, working within strategy set by founders.

Track and report pipeline health, conversion rates, and forecasted new business revenue

Represent Base externally at industry events, conferences, and networking opportunities to build market presence.

Collaborate with strategy and creative teams to ensure proposals reflect Base's full capability and differentiation.

Requirements

[Essential]

5+ years in business development, new business, or growth roles, ideally within a creative, branding, or B2B services agency.

Demonstrated track record of sourcing and closing new client relationships — not primarily managing renewals or upsell.

Strong existing network within Vietnam/SEA's brand, marketing, or executive community.

Confident operating independently with founder-level visibility, without an existing BD infrastructure to lean on.

Strong communication and interpersonal skills in both Vietnamese and English.

Comfortable owning pipeline numbers and revenue forecasting, not just relationship-building.

[Desired]

Existing relationships with brand or marketing decision-makers in target industries

Track record pitching and closing significant agency engagements

Familiarity with RFP processes and procurement cycles in the region

Strategic thinking with a keen eye for where Base's capabilities create new opportunity
