Grab names new managing directors for Singapore, Vietnam operations

Singapore – Superapp Grab has announced key leadership appointments for its Singapore and Vietnam operations, effective on July 1, 2025. Grab has named Alejandro Osorio and Ma Tuan Trong as managing directors of Singapore and Vietnam, respectively.

Both Osorio and Trong will report directly to Yee Wee Tang, who will transition to his new role as group managing director of operations from his previous position as managing director of Grab Singapore. Tang will oversee operations across multiple countries, ensuring strategic alignment and platform safety.

Osorio currently leads the operations of Grab Vietnam, having held leadership positions in Grab Thailand and Singapore. He first joined the company as director for regional strategy and planning before his country head roles in Thailand and Vietnam.

In Osorio’s new role, he will focus on scaling the GrabCab taxi service, enhancing its accessibility and convenience. He will also integrate Chope’s capabilities for a unified food experience and develop financial products through GrabFin and GXS Bank.

Meanwhile, Trong currently serves as the country commercial head in Vietnam. Having been with Grab for nearly seven years, he has held various leadership roles in marketing, deliveries, and commercials.

Trong will be responsible for expanding Grab’s operations in Vietnam while fostering economic empowerment for its locals.

“These appointments reflect Grab’s investment in talent development and its strong bench of leaders. Alejandro and Trong bring extensive experience and proven track records that will be instrumental in driving innovation and growth. Alejandro’s expertise in leading diverse markets will introduce fresh strategies in Singapore, while Trong’s capabilities in scaling businesses will deepen our reach within Vietnamese communities. Under their leadership, we are confident that we will continue to deliver exceptional value to our users and partners,” Tang said.

Osorio commented, “Singapore’s openness to new ideas and commitment to public-private collaboration have given Grab invaluable opportunities to co-create industry-first solutions that truly make a difference in people’s lives. That spirit of innovation is what draws me back to Singapore once again. I’m excited to deepen our partnerships and learn from our users and partners to co-create meaningful and relevant solutions that meet the evolving needs of Singaporeans.”

“I am truly honoured and proud to be a Vietnamese serving the people of Vietnam and contributing to Grab’s growth journey in my home country. Together with our passionate leadership team and Grabbers across Vietnam, we will continue to leverage our technology and scale to deliver even greater value to our consumers, driver-partners, merchant-partners, and the wider Vietnamese communities. Digitalisation has profoundly improved the lives of our communities, and we are committed to working closely with the government through meaningful public-private partnerships that empower every Vietnamese to access better opportunities in the digital economy and support the nation’s socio-economic progress,” Trong said.
