Country Manager, Taiwan

ABOUT THE ROLE

We’re looking for a Country Manager to be the single-threaded owner of establishing and growing Notion’s presence in Taiwan. This is a market-building leadership role. You will create initial market momentum, convert early demand into lighthouse customer wins, and install a repeatable operating system that scales.

Think of it as building a startup within Notion: you will own Notion's mission delivery and revenue maximization in-country — leading the Sales team while partnering closely with Marketing, Customer Success, Professional Services, and other cross-functional teams to maximize impact. You'll operate with a high degree of autonomy in local decision-making, while staying tightly aligned with global and regional strategy. You'll report to the APAC GM.

WHAT YOU’LL ACHIEVE

- You will own all revenue of the Taiwan business

- Recruit and develop a high-performing sales team to drive pipeline and revenue

- Deeply understand existing and prospective Notion users in-market — their workflows, use cases, and unmet needs — and translate those insights into a market strategy

- Build momentum in the local ecosystem through community, startups, and strategic partnerships

- Establish Notion’s brand presence in-market and represent Notion as the public face across press, events, and executive conversations

- Partner cross-functionally with Marketing, Customer Success, Solution Engineering, and Professional Services to ensure customers achieve meaningful outcomes with Notion

- Actively seek opportunities to engage, promote, and grow Notion’s presence across the region

WHO WE’RE LOOKING FOR

- Mission-driven founder energy: You are inspired by Notion's mission to help people build beautiful tools for their life's work, and you bring a founder-like commitment to growing the business. You've built 0→1 in a market or segment, thrive in ambiguity, and have high agency. Hands-on — running events, quarterbacking deals, writing the playbook

- Technical and AI fluency: Credible demoing Notion + AI Agents, and discussing integrations and workflows with technical audiences

- Locally embedded: You have a deep network in Taiwan (startup, VC, community, media)

- Ecosystem builder: You build partner loops and repeatable programs, not one-off events

- Public face: Comfortable with press, podcasts, conferences, and founder/CxO conversations. Credible with startup founders and enterprise executives alike

- Strong GTM collaboration: You make the ecosystem motion measurable through routes, follow-ups, and handoffs to regional teams

- Sales leadership: Proven ability to build and lead a strong sales team that consistently delivers revenue results

- Data-driven operator: You bring a data-driven mindset to planning, goal-setting, and tracking progress. You know how to build and run a scorecard, analyze performance, and make clear investment recommendations

WHAT YOU WILL NEED TO BRING

- 10+ years of professional experience, with a strong track record in sales, business development, or market-building roles, including 3+ years in a people management role

- Experience working in and managing Taiwan markets, ideally across startup, mid-market, and enterprise segments

- Comfortable with the ambiguity and pace of iteration of an early-stage operation

- Strong empathy for customers and passion for revenue and growth

- Fluent in English; proficiency in additional regional languages is a plus

NICE TO HAVES

- Experience at a high-growth SaaS/AI company operating in Taiwan

- Native or fluent Mandarin and English or other regional language skills

- Experience selling or evangelizing productivity, collaboration, or developer tools

- Track record of building and scaling community-led or product-led growth motions

- You don’t need to be an AI expert, but you’re curious and willing to adopt AI tools to work smarter and deliver better results
