Academy Head/Lead

Objectives

We are looking for an Academy Head/Lead who will be responsible for owning and scaling PMAX Academy’s business across both B2C public courses and B2B corporate training. You will lead the Academy’s strategy, operations, training product development, commercial growth, and P&L management, while driving sustainable revenue and operational efficiency. You will be a key member of PMAX’s leadership team, working closely with internal teams, trainers, and corporate partners to build PMAX Academy into a leading digital marketing training business in Vietnam.

Job Description

1. Business Strategy (10%)

  • Propose and co-build the Academy’s scale-up strategy with leadership: product portfolio, pricing, B2C vs B2B growth model
  • Monitor the market and competitors (academies/edtech) to adjust positioning and product roadmap
  • Translate strategy into quarterly/annual plans with clear targets and milestones

2. Operations (30%)

  • Own end-to-end operations across B2C and B2B: class scheduling, trainer coordination, learner experience, LMS/tooling, certification, and feedback loops

3. Product Development (25%)

  • Manage and optimize the existing course portfolio: keep curriculum current with platform changes, AI, and industry trends
  • Develop new products based on learner demand data and corporate client requirements
  • B2B: lead the program customization process (training needs analysis → design → proposal)
  • Recruit, onboard, and quality-manage the trainer pool (internal experts + external)

4. Commercial & Growth (20%)

  • Own revenue targets for both segments: the B2C funnel (marketing → enrollment → retention) and the B2B pipeline (lead gen → proposal → closing)
  • Collaborate with PMAX’s Marketing/Sales teams to leverage the company’s brand, client base, and existing channels
  • Develop partnerships: universities, industry associations, and platforms (Google, Meta, TikTok…)

5. P&L Management (15%)

  • Manage the Academy’s P&L: revenue, COGS (trainer costs, venue, platform), OPEX, and margin
  • Track unit economics by product line; recommend scale/kill decisions based on data
  • Forecast and report regularly to leadership

Nice-to-have

  • Experience in edtech, L&D, corporate training, or B2B service delivery
  • Network within Vietnam’s marketing community
  • Hands-on experience with LMS and learning tools
