Seek, the parent company of leading online employment marketplaces JobStreet and JobsDB, announced the appointment of Dannah Majarocon as JobStreet Philippines’ managing director, effective July 2023.
“I’m very confident that our team will be able to continue making a difference in the Philippines and take JobStreet to the next level to help more Filipinos find meaningful and fulfilling working lives. I do hope to be able to drive a significant impact on more talent in the market—most importantly, the under supported blue-collar and freelance workers in the country,” said Majarocon.
Majarocon has held various leadership roles in then Philippine tech space in the last 11 years, and one of the most challenging was with Lalamove Philippines as managing director and consultant.
Prior to Lalamove Philippines, she has worked with Mynt, which operates GCash and Fuse Lending, as well as Globe Telecom, a major telco player in the country. She spent her career managing overall P&L, business operations, and strategy, driving stellar performance to multiple fast-growing companies.
In her role, Majarocon will be responsible for implementing business strategies, ensuring a robust and forward-looking framework while driving growth for the company.
Her goal, she said, is to continue working towards supporting more micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs), which contribute significantly to the Philippine economy, through providing relevant recruitment insights and a pool of quality candidates.
Majarocon will be taking over from Philip Gioca, who has held the position for 8 years and has been with the company for over 13 years, spearheading various campaigns.
