User Growth

• User growth initiatives: Support the end-to-end planning and execution of user growth initiatives for GrabMall, ensuring cross-functional alignment between Ops, Product, and relevant teams.
• Ecosystem cross-selling: Contribute to strategies that convert the existing Grab user base into active GrabMall shoppers through high-context placements.
• Campaign management: In partnership with Marketing and Country teams, support the rhythm of the business through high-velocity campaign cadences.
