  • Help Shape How We Work: Contribute to refining processes, workflows, and ways of working as the team grows and scales across the region.
  • Build Genuine Partnerships: Work closely with other CEG and cross-functional teams to keep operations running smoothly.
  • Bring Your Team Along for the Journey: Keep your Team Managers and their teams engaged, informed, and motivated as the function continues to take shape.
  • Tell a Compelling Story: Prepare and share clear, data-driven updates on team performance and improvement initiatives with senior stakeholders.
  • Stay Agile: Thrive in a fast-moving, evolving environment, adapting plans and priorities as the team learns what works best.
  • Champion Our Values: Uphold the highest standards of compliance and bring Agoda's mission and values to life every day.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
