What does a Senior Manager, GTM & Commercialization, Visa Direct Asia Pacific does: 

Product Commercialization is responsible for owning the end‑to‑end commercialization lifecycle of Visa Direct capabilities — from shaping early product propositions and go‑to‑market strategy, through launch execution, to initial scale.

The role acts as the single accountable orchestrator across Product, Sales, Technology, Network, Risk, Legal, Operations, Pricing, and Marketing to ensure new and enhanced capabilities are translated into market‑ready, commercially viable solutions with strong product‑market fit. This includes defining target use cases and segments, building GTM plans, managing client pipelines, and program‑managing cross‑functional execution through pilot, limited, and general availability.

Product Commercialization also plays a critical role upstream of build, partnering with Product teams to shape propositions by grounding decisions in client needs, market insights, and commercial viability, and feeding structured inputs into product roadmaps and prioritization. Downstream, the role owns launch readiness and early adoption, including sales enablement, client onboarding, feedback loops, and performance tracking to drive successful adoption and growth.

Overall, Product Commercialization sits at the intersection of strategy, execution, and revenue, ensuring that Visa Direct innovations are not only built, but successfully launched, adopted, and scaled in market.

This role reports into the Regional Head of GTM & Commercialization, AP, and owns end‑to‑end product commercialization across the region—shaping opportunities, defining use cases, and orchestrating cross‑functional execution to bring Visa Direct capabilities successfully to market.

This is a fast‑paced, highly cross‑functional environment, suited to a self‑starter who thrives in ambiguity, brings strong commercial judgment, and combines product thinking with execution rigor to drive adoption and growth of new payment capabilities in market.

Bring deep market and regional insights (TAM, SAM, SOM), articulate client pain points and problem statements, and identify and size business opportunities. Develop business cases, prioritization frameworks, roadmaps, and timelines, with clear ownership of assigned product, segment, or use‑case commercialization outcomes.
