What is Jobs_that_makesense?

Jobs_that_makesense (JTMS) is a social enterprise operating in France and Southeast Asia. Born out of the international organisation makesense, our mission is to grow the workforce that is accelerating just and equitable transitions across society.

Launched in France in 2021, Jobs_that_makesense quickly became the country’s leading impact job platform. In 2024, we expanded to Southeast Asia, where we now serve more than 20,000 monthly users and support over 1,000 purpose-driven employers across the region.

Our mission is simple: to help more people build meaningful careers that contribute to positive social and environmental impact. We do this by providing information, learning experiences, career opportunities and connections that enable individuals to thrive while contributing to a more sustainable and inclusive future.

Our activities

• Job Platform: We connect purpose-driven employers and training providers with people looking for meaningful career opportunities across Southeast Asia.
• Climate Career Accelerator: Every month, we welcome 15–20 participants to a four-week online learning experience designed to help them understand the climate ecosystem in Southeast Asia and navigate careers within the sector.
• Hiring That Makesense: We design and deliver customised capacity-building programmes for impact organisations to strengthen their recruitment practices and become employers of choice.
• Media & Community: Through our editorial content, newsletters, social media, events and networking opportunities, we help our community understand the evolution of the impact economy, discover career opportunities and learn how they can become part of this growing movement.

Role context: Growing Southeast Asia’s go-to platform for impact careers

Most people who want a career with purpose struggle to find one. Not because the jobs don’t exist, but because opportunities are scattered, difficult to find and sometimes hard to navigate. Many people don’t know which sectors are hiring, what skills they need or where to start.

In just two years, Jobs_that_makesense Asia has grown to more than 20,000 monthly users and over 1,000 employers. We have built a growing community of people interested in meaningful careers and developed programmes and events to help them take their next steps.

Our next challenge is to turn this growing audience into a more engaged community of job seekers, learners and participants, while building a sustainable business model for JTMS Asia.

> We want growth that means something. More website visits are only valuable if the people behind them find relevant opportunities, join our programmes, attend our events or return to our platform.

> We want to understand what works. Which channels bring us the right audiences? What motivates someone to register for a programme? Why do some visitors convert while others leave? How can we make better use of the community we have already built?

> And we want every touchpoint to lead somewhere. A job listing, an event, an advertisement, an email or a social media post should be part of a coherent journey that helps people move from discovering JTMS to taking meaningful action.

To achieve this, we are looking for a Growth Lead who can combine strategy, data analysis, experimentation and hands‑on execution to accelerate the business growth of JTMS Asia.

Your mission

As Growth Lead, your mission is to turn Jobs_that_makesense Asia’s growing audience into an engaged community of job seekers, learners and paying participants. You will lead our user acquisition, conversion and revenue growth strategies, ensuring that more people discover JTMS, find relevant career opportunities and enrol in our programmes and events.

Your role will combine strategic thinking with hands‑on execution. From paid campaigns and conversion funnels to CRM automation and data analytics, you will build and optimise the systems that enable JTMS to grow sustainably.

You will work closely with our Communications Officer, Business Developers, Events Officer and programme teams.
