Company Description
We’re Checkout.com – you might not know our name, but companies like eBay, ASOS, Klarna, Uber Eats, and Sony do. That moment when you check out online? We make it happen.
Checkout.com is where the world checks out. Our global network powers billions of transactions every year, making money move without making a fuss. We spent years perfecting a service most people will never notice. Because when digital payments just work, businesses grow, customers stay, and no one stops to think about why.
With 19 offices spanning six continents, we feel at home everywhere – but London is our HQ. Wherever our people work their magic, they’re fast-moving, performance-obsessed, and driven by being better every day. Ideal. Because a role here isn’t just another job; it’s a career-defining opportunity to build the future of fintech.

Plan and execute regional marketing initiatives and campaigns, including events, webinars, partnerships, and integrated go-to-market programs.
Collaborate with Global Marketing to localise campaigns and ensure relevance across diverse APAC markets.
Track and report on marketing performance, engagement, and pipeline impact to inform optimisation and future planning.

Conduct ongoing market and competitive analysis across APAC to understand industry trends, customer needs, and evolving competitive dynamics.
Monitor regulatory, ecosystem, and market developments that may impact product adoption or go-to-market strategy.
Share insights with internal stakeholders to support informed strategic and commercial decision-making.
Cross-functional Collaboration
Act as a key regional partner to Sales, Account Manager, Partnerships and Solution Engineering teams to ensure alignment and effective execution.
Support agile responses to market changes and customer feedback across the region.
Contribute regional insights to global planning, product launches, and strategic initiatives.

Proven ability to develop product positioning, go-to-market strategies, and marketing content for diverse regional audiences.
