ASSISTANT FINANCE MANAGER

Every minute you spend working for a company is one minute of your life given away.

Who deserves the life you give away?

WHO IS BECA TEA?

WHO IS TEH TARIK NATION?

A company with decades of experience and yet is fun and innovative

We are a tea family, and we have been on the old High Street of Kuala Lumpur (Jalan Tun HS Lee) for the last 93 years.

Great-grandpa peddled tea out of his tin trunk, on a trishaw, all around Kuala Lumpur when he first came from China. We still have that tin trunk.

We\'re a 93-year-old start-up. The floorboards creak. The old typewriter still sits there. But our world is also tea mixology, distilled botanicals, compression technology.

We are not another boba joint, not another café chain, not another F&B outlet. We are tea people. We will be the first outlet out there that does not add any sugar or flavoured syrups to our tea drinks.

We have a simple mission - make the best cup of tea, sell it to everyone, make space for the quiet tea drinker overlooked in this coffee world, take the narrative away from the coffee people and give the weary coffee addict and the sheepish boba junkie an alternative. We also have the audacious aim of sparking a new wave of interest in tea, starting in Malaysia and Singapore, and then going far beyond our shores. We want to be at the forefront of a movement to influence and infect people with an interest in and love for tea.

Grow, as the company grows
