Over the past 10 years, Impact Hub Phnom Penh has supported more than 900+ ventures across Cambodia. As we deepen our support for entrepreneurs, we recognize that one of the most critical drivers of success for SMEs is reaching the right buyers, positioning products effectively, and building lasting commercial relationships.
To address this, we are seeking a Market Access Lead & Growth Connector to play a pivotal role in bridging the gap. We are open to hiring a Coordinator, Manager, or Lead level.
- What You'll Do:
- Regardless of level, the core work is the same. You will:
- Build and steward a network of buyers and partners. You develop trusted relationships with buyers, distributors, and strategic partners. And you turn that trust into real commercial opportunities for the entrepreneurs we support.
- Map the ecosystem and know which doors matter. You understand the landscape (i.e. who the buyers are, what they’re looking for, and where the entry points are). You don’t just open doors; you know which ones are worth opening.
- Assess readiness and position products for the right markets. You work with entrepreneurs to sharpen their value proposition, pricing, packaging, and pitch through training and mentoring. You understand where each entrepreneur is in their journey, and you help them see what’s working, what needs strengthening, and when the timing is right to be in front of a specific buyer. You’re invested in getting them there.
- Be present in the spaces where opportunities happen. You represent Impact Hub at events, trade shows, B2B sessions, and industry gatherings to identify specific buyers and partnerships worth exploring, leaving with concrete next steps, and bringing opportunities back to the entrepreneurs we support.
- Bring market intelligence back to the team. What you learn from buyers (what they want, what’s missing, what’s not landing) flows back to shape Impact Hub Phnom Penh’s technical know-how.
- Tell the story. You shape how our entrepreneurs and their products are seen: helping buyers understand the value, the people behind it, and why it matters. You guide content direction and marketing materials with warmth and substance, and people leave your conversations curious and wanting to follow up.
- Deliver commercial results. You measure your work by what actually happened: contracts signed, shelves stocked, repeat orders placed, entrepreneurs growing their sales. You care about outcomes, not activity.
- Work as part of a team. You sit alongside colleagues who handle community building, product-quality training, logistics, and coordination. Your lane is external: relationships, partnerships, and market strategy. You collaborate closely, share what you’re learning, and own your domain.
- Khmer - Fluent is required
- English - Good is preferred
- Bachelor's Degree
- Master's Degree
- Business Development, Partnerships, or Market Access in Social Enterprises and Impact for 3 to 5 years is preferred
- Experience working with agriculture, food products, NTFPs, eco-tourism or related value chains in Startups and Entrepreneurial Ventures for 3 to 5 years is preferred
- These aren't nice-to-haves. They're the things that make someone right for this work, regardless of seniority:
- You can tell a story: Whether it's a pitch to a buyer, a product sheet, or a conversation at an event; you communicate with warmth and substance.
- You're a relationship person: You build trust quickly. People remember you, not because you're out there, but because you're genuine, curious, and you follow through.
- You care about the entrepreneurs we work with: You treat their products, stories, and trust seriously. They're partners, not just deals to be made or products to be sold.
- You have real curiosity about products and markets: You ask insightful questions. You understand what makes a product land with a buyer and what doesn't.
- You believe value should flow back: You care that smallholder farmers and local communities benefit, not just the top of the chain.
- You're hands-on: You move from strategy to action without needing a perfect process. You're resourceful and you figure things out.
- Fluency in English is essential - written and spoken, including for pitches and marketing materials. Khmer fluency is preferred.
- We're also open to candidates with strong regional experience and a demonstrated ability to build local relationships.
