About us
Alcotox Ltd is a UK-based life sciences company pioneering alcohol harm reduction. Our scientifically validated and patent-pending technology is designed to neutralise acetaldehyde, the toxic metabolite responsible for much of alcohol's harmful effects. We operate across nutraceuticals, functional beverages and a biotech pipeline focused on:
- Liver toxicity
- Alcohol addiction
- Asian Flush
- Oral cancer
Our products have shown strong early demand within Asian Flush communities, and we are currently running a pilot study measuring the effect of Alcotox on alcohol-induced facial flushing and other biometric markers in East Asian participants, using thermal imaging.
The Opportunity
We believe we have identified a major and largely unoccupied opportunity in China and wider Asia.
ALDH2 deficiency, the biological cause of Asian Flush, affects an estimated 400 million people in China alone and up to 800 million across Asia.
We have reviewed the leading anti-alcohol and liver-support products currently sold in China. None targets acetaldehyde. None references ALDH2. None has published human biomarker data.
Alcotox has all three.
We already have a scientifically validated, patent-pending technology and an existing product platform including Vital x, Splash and our functional beverage range.
We are now looking for an exceptional China-connected individual to help us turn this potential advantage into a defensible and rapidly growing position in the Chinese market.
Your role
Your role will be to help Alcotox build the relationships, intelligence and commercial opportunities needed to establish a strong position in China. The ultimate measure of success is commercial outcomes, sales, distribution deals and revenue generated, not the volume of introductions made.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
You will:
- Open doors to influential people and organisations across China
- Identify potential strategic, commercial, healthcare, scientific, distribution and investment partners
- Introduce Alcotox to relevant Chinese businesses, entrepreneurs, researchers, clinicians, creators and decision-makers
- Help us understand Chinese consumer behaviour, alcohol culture and market dynamics
- Identify opportunities around Asian Flush, alcohol metabolism and alcohol harm reduction
- Help identify potential Chinese distribution, retail, e-commerce and creator opportunities
- Build relationships with relevant Chinese healthcare, scientific and research communities
- Provide insight into Chinese competitors, market developments and emerging opportunities
- Help bridge Alcotox's UK/Western capabilities with Chinese commercial and professional networks
- Work directly with the Founder to develop and execute our China market strategy
What we're looking for
You have:
- Deep first-hand experience of the Chinese market
- Native-level Mandarin and fluent English
- An established and trusted network across relevant Chinese business and professional communities
- Strong relationships with senior decision-makers, entrepreneurs, businesses or organisations in China
- The credibility and personality to make introductions and build trusted relationships
- A strong understanding of Chinese business and consumer culture
- Experience connecting Chinese and Western businesses or organisations
- Commercial instinct and the ability to recognise high-value opportunities
- An entrepreneurial mindset and the drive to make things happen
- Genuine curiosity about Alcotox, alcohol metabolism and the Asian Flush opportunity
Your network might be strongest in one or more areas such as:
Get help with your application
Your very own career expert that helps elevate your application to the next level.
- Consumer & FMCG
- Alcohol & Beverage
- Healthcare
- Life Sciences
- Scientific Research
- Distribution
- E-commerce
- Creators & Media
- Investment
- Entrepreneurship
You do not need to have experience in every area. We are particularly interested in people with exceptional depth in one or more of these networks.
What makes this opportunity different
Alcotox sits at the intersection of life sciences, alcohol, wellness and consumer health. This is not a crowded market with an opening. It is a market with no direct competitor in the category we operate in. We believe China could become one of the most important markets in the future development of Alcotox. We are looking for someone who wants to help us build that opportunity.
You will work directly with the Founder and have genuine influence over how Alcotox approaches China. This is an opportunity to help build something from an early stage rather than inherit an established market.
If the opportunity develops as we believe it can, the people who help create the Chinese business will have the opportunity to participate meaningfully in the value they help create.
Compensation
This is a fractional, performance-based role. We believe exceptional people should share directly in the value they help create. Compensation includes:
- Meaningful equity participation, aligning your long-term success with the company's growth
- Profit share on revenue or commercial outcomes arising from your introductions and network
- Additional equity and profit share for exceptional, sustained contribution as the China opportunity develops
If you have the network, credibility and ambition to build Alcotox's presence in one of the world's most important untapped markets, we'd love to hear from you.
