As a Strategic Account Manager, you will operate in a fast-paced and highly competitive environment, balancing short-term commercial performance with long-term partnership growth.

Translate complex data and market insights into actionable commercial strategies and tailored recommendations for hotel partners.
Utilize AI-enabled tools and data-driven insights to improve decision-making, identify growth opportunities, and enhance operational efficiency.
Drive partner performance across key business metrics including supply health, pricing competitiveness, direct share, campaign participation, and strategic initiatives.
Identify root causes behind business challenges and independently develop scalable, commercially impactful solutions.
Partner cross-functionally with Product, Operations, Marketing, Supply, and Regional teams to identify business opportunities and advocate for impactful changes.
Proactively manage partner escalations and operational issues, ensuring timely resolution and alignment across stakeholders.
Build long-term strategic partnerships with key hotel groups and independent partners to accelerate Agoda’s growth in Taiwan.
Support the Area Manager in preparing country reporting, business reviews, and strategic presentations for senior leadership stakeholders.
What you’ll Need to Succeed:
Minimum 5 years of experience in strategic account management, business development, management consulting, e-commerce, marketplace platforms, travel tech, hospitality, or related commercial roles.
Strong commercial acumen with the ability to identify growth opportunities, influence partner behavior, and drive measurable business impact.
Proven ability to build and sustain executive-level partnerships that drive measurable business outcomes.
Strong analytical and problem-solving capabilities, with the ability to simplify complex data into clear business recommendations.
Excellent stakeholder management, project management, and cross-functional collaboration skills.
Strong communication and storytelling skills, with the ability to engage both external partners and internal senior stakeholders.
Demonstrated ownership mindset with the ability to independently drive initiatives in a fast-moving and ambiguous environment.
Hands-on, execution-oriented, and adaptable with strong prioritization capabilities
Strong proficiency in both English and Chinese.
It’s Great if you have:
Passion for technology, travel, marketplaces, and solving complex business challenges at scale.
Experience managing strategic portfolios or enterprise-level partnerships in highly competitive environments.
