Life at Grab
At Grab, every Grabber is guided by The Grab Way, which spells out our mission, how we believe we can achieve it, and our operating principles - the 4Hs: Heart, Hunger, Honour and Humility. These principles guide and help us make decisions as we work to create economic empowerment for the people of Southeast Asia.
Get to Know the Team
The Marketplace team focuses on balancing GrabCar and GrabTaxi’s multi-sided marketplaces. In short, we manage the balance between supply and demand for the Transport business. We work towards understanding the behavior of our customers - whether it’s our driver partners or our passengers - and using these insights to make business decisions to drive growth, efficiency, and profitability. On the supply side, our core work includes ownership of the supply operations, including allocating, incentivizing, and optimizing the driver pool - we are always looking for ways to improve driver behavior and performance. When it comes to demand, we work with demand generation (through new features and products as well as campaigns) and optimization (influencing passenger behavior through promos). You can also expect your scope to expand frequently beyond this and take on additional special projects.

In this role, you will be working closely with our driver and passenger-facing teams (Driver Operations and Marketing), among other stakeholders.

Data analysis: you will be identifying key issues and opportunities for the Transport business based on data-driven insights, as well as impact assessment for any initiatives that you bring forward
Project management: you will lead multiple projects to explore business issues/opportunities based on targeted areas for growth
Stakeholder management: you will need to be able to communicate upwards and across different departments, providing direction and guidance where necessary to balance trade-offs in the overall marketplace

Work with the product teams to launch and localize new product features
