Overview
Founding Country Manager – Vietnam Jobs in Vietnam at Mainline
Title: Founding Country Manager – Vietnam
Company: Mainline
Location: Vietnam
About Mainline
Mainline is building a new 24/7 perps venue for active traders across gold, FX, indices, equities and crypto.
We are looking for a commercially driven operator to launch and grow Mainline in Vietnam. You will build the local distribution network from zero, recruiting and managing introducing brokers, affiliates, trading educators, signal communities and other high-value acquisition partners.
This is not a conventional corporate country-manager role. It is a hands-on market-building position combining country leadership with a master-IB model.
You will receive a monthly base salary, plus ongoing uncapped revenue share across the Vietnam business you build.
Note: Mainline is pre-launch. The first phase is to build the Vietnam partner network and launch pipeline; once live, the role becomes full commercial ownership of Vietnam acquisition, partner performance and revenue growth.
What you'll do:
- Build and own Mainline’s Vietnam go-to-market strategy.
- Identify, recruit and activate high-quality IBs, affiliates, KOLs and trading communities.
- Build direct relationships with major local trading networks.
- Negotiate partner economics and close commercial agreements.
- Support partners with launch campaigns, content and trader-acquisition funnels.
- Recruit and manage sub-IBs across the market.
- Drive direct customer acquisition through local campaigns and relationships.
- Track partner performance and allocate effort towards the channels generating the strongest commercial results.
- Provide market intelligence on competitors, trader behaviour and local acquisition channels.
- Build a local team where justified by performance.
What success looks like:
- A strong pipeline of qualified Vietnamese distribution partners.
- Productive IBs, affiliates and trading communities actively acquiring traders.
- Growing numbers of funded, active customers.
- Meaningful net revenue generated across the Vietnam network.
- A repeatable and scalable local acquisition engine.
- A strong sub-IB structure with clear ownership and accountability.
We care primarily about commercial outcomes, not meetings, presentations or market-mapping exercises.
Ideal background:
- Senior experience in FX/CFD brokerage, IB management, affiliate management, sports betting, online gambling, broker sales, country management or trading-community growth.
- Existing relationships with Vietnamese IBs, affiliates, educators, KOLs or trading communities.
- Strong understanding of CPA, revenue share, rebates, sub-IB structures, partner tracking and trader funnels.
- Proven ability to recruit, activate and manage revenue-producing partners.
- Experience operating as a master IB, country lead or senior partnerships operator is highly relevant.
- Comfortable working independently in an early-stage environment.
- Highly commercial, direct and execution-focused.
Compensation:
The role includes:
- A base salary or monthly retainer.
- Ongoing uncapped revenue share on net revenue generated by:
- – IBs, affiliates and partners recruited into the Vietnam network.
- – Sub-IBs introduced through those partners.
- – Direct customers acquired through local campaigns and relationships.
- Revenue share paid as revenue is earned.
- Additional performance bonuses may apply for major launch, revenue or market-development milestones.
- Scope, team and economics can expand as the Vietnam business grows.
The initial structure can be fractional, project-based or full-time depending on the candidate. Strong performance can lead to a larger country leadership role and broader participation in the economics of the market.
