Description

  • We’re hiring a K-beauty Account Manager to own the day-to-day relationship and trading performance for our Korean beauty clients. You’ll be the connective tissue between the brand, our internal teams (content, LIVE, affiliate, paid) and, where relevant, partners and stakeholders based in Korea
  • You’ll need to operate comfortably in both English and Korean, in writing and in conversation, because a good chunk of this job is translating between a Korean brand HQ and a London trading team without anything getting lost
  • Own a portfolio of K-beauty client accounts end to end: the relationship, the weekly GMV number, and everything that gets you there
  • Run weekly trading reviews with clients, reporting on performance against target and agreeing the next moves
  • Brief and coordinate somerce’s internal teams (content, affiliate, LIVE, paid media) so every account runs as one funnel, not five disconnected workstreams
  • Act as the primary liaison for Korean-speaking brand contacts and, where needed, Korea-based stakeholders, in both Korean and English
  • Support hero SKU strategy, pricing, promo calendars and stock planning alongside the shop operations team
  • Localise and quality-check Korean-to-English and English-to-Korean communication across briefs, reporting and client-facing materials
  • Spot growth opportunities within existing accounts and help build the case for scope expansion
  • Keep forecasts live and accurate, with assumptions stated, so nobody is ever surprised by a number
  • Clear progression paths with responsibility early
  • Regular performance reviews focused on development and impact
  • Direct exposure to high-growth brands across the UK, US and EU
  • Opportunity to work at the cutting edge of TikTok Shop and social commerce
