Singapore Tourism Board's Data Exploration and Partnerships (DXP) department is shaping the data landscape for Singapore's tourism sector, and this role is central to that mission.

As our Data Partnerships Manager, you will identify tourism industry data needs, forge strategic data partnerships, and design data use cases that generate actionable insights for STB and the broader tourism ecosystem.

What makes this role unique is the breadth of impact it offers: brokering strategic data partnerships, designing and running data pilots that surface actionable insights, and guiding tourism businesses in translating data into real business decisions. All of this within a newly established department where you will help shape how we work and make an impact on Singapore's tourism data landscape.
