Growth Lead

Growth Lead (B2B Sales) at MAIA

Somewhere in Malaysia right now, someone is retyping a WhatsApp order into an ERP. For the 40th time today. They just keyed in 100 cartons instead of 10.

We call this kerja bodoh. MAIA exists to kill it.

MAIA is an AI that takes the orders customers send on WhatsApp, however messily they arrive (“same as last week, boss”), and puts them into the ERP properly. 30+ wholesalers, distributors and manufacturers have signed. We want 100 by Q3 2027.

That gap is your job.

WHAT YOU’LL ACTUALLY DO

• Run demos and close them. The team target is 5 new accounts a week, and you’ll carry the biggest share of it.
• Sell to bosses who have run their business on WhatsApp and gut feel for 20 years, and are right to be sceptical of software people.
• Tell marketing which leads are gold and which are rubbish, and why.
• Turn what works into a playbook, so the next hire ramps in weeks, not months.
• Report straight to the CEO, who will listen to your calls and have opinions.

YOU’LL LIKE THIS IF

• You’ve sold B2B to SME owners and closed without begging or discounting.
• You like a scoreboard, and you check it before anyone asks.
• You’d rather close on the first call than “circle back next week”.
• You can move between English, BM and Mandarin or Cantonese mid-sentence (big plus).

YOU’LL HATE THIS IF

• You want a famous brand that sells itself, a protected territory and a 6-month ramp.
• “Growth” means dashboards to you, not conversations.

WHAT YOU GET

• An unfair offer to sell: customers don’t pay until it works.
• A front-row seat at a startup going from 30 to 100 customers in six months.
• [Location / hybrid]
