About GSM

GSM (Green SM) is building the world’s first fully electric ride-hailing platform - reinventing how people move through cities, one clean ride at a time. Our scope is global and our model is unusually broad: we operate at the intersection of electric vehicle solutions, vehicle financing, EV charging and depot infrastructure, technology development, and ride-hailing. In under three years we have become one of the fastest-scaling players in our markets, and we are now bringing our all-electric service to Africa, beginning with Côte d’Ivoire.

In one line

Build the physical foundation that enables GSM to launch new markets—delivering depots, offices, charging infrastructure and local operational capabilities from zero.

About the role

As an Infrastructure & Market Setup Manager, you are responsible for turning a market launch plan into physical reality. You own the end-to-end setup of operational infrastructure, ensuring every market has the facilities, vendors and assets required to launch safely, on time and within budget.

You are not simply managing projects—you are building new operations from scratch. You'll work across multiple international markets, partnering with local teams, contractors and cross-functional stakeholders to create repeatable, scalable infrastructure playbooks.

What you'll own

1. Infrastructure Development

- Lead the setup of depots, offices, charging infrastructure and other operational facilities across new markets.

- Identify, evaluate and negotiate sites with landlords, developers and infrastructure partners.

- Standardize infrastructure specifications and replicate best practices across markets.

2. Vendor & Project Delivery

- Source, negotiate and manage local contractors, suppliers and implementation partners.

- Drive construction, fit-out and infrastructure delivery from planning through handover.

- Ensure projects are delivered on schedule, within budget and to GSM standards.

3. Launch Readiness

- Own infrastructure readiness for market launch.

- Coordinate closely with Market Expansion Managers, Operations, Vehicle Management, Charging, Legal, Procurement and Finance.

- Identify risks early and remove infrastructure bottlenecks that could delay launch.

4. CAPEX & Governance

- Manage infrastructure CAPEX and setup budgets.

- Improve setup efficiency through standardization and value engineering.

- Develop scalable playbooks, templates and lessons learned for future market launches.
