Hello. We're Blood.

Our purpose is to revolutionize periods.

Who are we

Blood is a challenger consumer brand that creates game-changing period care products for all who bleed. Our focus on deeply understanding and caring for our users drives our product innovation and material design, which enables us to invent products that are both high performing and also better for the body.

Blood is the creator of the world's first Sanitary Pad made from Corn, and is the parent brand of MenstruHeat (menstrual cramp relief) and the Blood Menstrual Cup.

Our products are sold across Malaysia, Indonesia, and Singapore, both direct-to-consumer online and in more than 7,000 retail stores - making more than 12 million periods better so far.

Today was good. Tomorrow will bleed better.

Who we're looking for

We're looking for a Senior Key Account Manager (SKAM) to play a critical role in driving the growth of Blood in Modern Trade Malaysia.

You will be both hands-on and strategic, equally comfortable running day-to-day account execution as you are shaping mid-term account plans. This is a high-impact role with clear visibility, accountability, and room to grow.
