Head of APAC

Commercial Head, APAC 
Location: APAC (Singapore  or SEA based)

We are partnering with a global MedTech/Healthcare organisation with a strong dermatology portfolio, seeking a Commercial Head, APAC to lead and scale the region.

While globally established, the APAC business operates with a lean, high-growth, start-up mindset - requiring a leader who thrives in ambiguity, builds from the ground up, and is motivated by creating impact.

The Opportunity

This is a hands-on commercial and operational leadership role, responsible for driving growth, stabilising and energising teams, and building a competitive edge across key APAC markets.

You will play a pivotal role in shaping the regional strategy across a diverse dermatology portfolio spanning areas such as:

• Medical dermatology
• Aesthetic dermatology
• Skin health innovations
• Emerging technologies and treatment pathways

Key Responsibilities

• Lead and execute the APAC commercial strategy, driving revenue growth and market penetration
• Stabilise, coach, and develop a regional commercial team, fostering performance and accountability
• Build strong market access, KOL, and distributor networks across the region
• Partner cross-functionally with global teams to localise strategy effectively
• Drive operational excellence, ensuring structure, clarity, and execution discipline
• Identify and unlock new market opportunities within dermatology

What We’re Looking For

This role is less about tenure and more about mindset and impact.

We’re looking for someone who:

• Brings strong commercial acumen within MedTech, Pharma, or Dermatology
• Has experience navigating complex, multi-market APAC environments
• Demonstrates a “fighter mentality” - resilient, agile, and comfortable with ambiguity
• Is equally comfortable strategising and executing
• Can stabilise and build teams, creating structure where needed
• Is motivated by growth, transformation, and building something meaningful

Why Join?

• Global organisation with strong backing and innovation pipeline
• Opportunity to shape and define the APAC business
• High visibility role with direct impact on regional success
• A chance to build, lead, and leave a legacy in dermatology

If you are looking for a role where you can drive change, build momentum, and lead from the front, we would love to connect.
