About the Role

We are looking for an International Growth & Market Entry Lead to identify new markets, evaluate international business opportunities, develop market-entry strategies and build strategic partnerships.

This is primarily a research, strategy and business development role — not a direct sales position.

You will study countries, industries, competitors, customers and business environments, convert information into actionable strategies, and prepare expansion opportunities for execution by our Marketing and Sales teams.

The role is suited to someone who enjoys:

Research → Analysis → Strategic Thinking → Business Model Design → Market Entry → Prospect Creation

Key Responsibilities

- Identify potential countries, industries and international business opportunities.
- Conduct market, industry and competitor research.
- Evaluate markets from commercial, competitive and strategic perspectives.
- Identify customer segments, market gaps and emerging opportunities.
- Develop country-wise international expansion strategies.
- Design business models for new markets and opportunities.
- Assess market-entry options such as:
- Export
- Distributor
- Channel partner
- Local representative
- Virtual office
- Branch office
- Subsidiary
- Joint venture
- Local manufacturing
- Develop value propositions and commercial models for new markets.
- Identify distributors, strategic partners, industry associations and trade bodies.
- Research government investment agencies, economic development organisations and international business-support organisations.
- Evaluate regulations, taxation, logistics, infrastructure and market-entry considerations.
- Prepare commercial feasibility studies and opportunity reports.
- Develop market-entry roadmaps and implementation recommendations.




- Coordinate with management for strategic review and validation.
- Convert research into structured execution briefs for Marketing and Sales teams.
- Maintain documentation and track international growth projects through defined stages.

3–6 years in one or more of the following:

- International business
- Business strategy
