Korean Marketplace Specialist

Location: APAC

Experience: Typically 2+ years managing Korean marketplaces (or strong foundational knowledge for junior/freelance track)

Own Korean marketplace operations and help drive e-commerce growth across APAC. This isn’t a lateral move. We built Loop by going all in from day one. You’ll own our Korean marketplace presence across platforms including Naver Smart Store, Coupang, and Kakao, turning commercial opportunities into measurable growth through smart execution, continuous optimisation, and decisive action. From merchandising and campaign execution to marketplace optimisation and performance analysis, your work will directly shape how we grow in one of Asia’s most dynamic e-commerce markets. If you’ve mastered Korean marketplace operations and you’re ready to challenge the rules that no longer work, this is where you do it.

The role

You step into ownership. You move fast and take responsibility for what you build. You focus on work that matters, not the noise that slows things down. Working closely with our global marketplace team, Korea go-to-market lead, marketplace agencies, account managers, and logistics partners, you’ll turn strategy into execution. You’ll make informed decisions, adapt as priorities evolve, and keep commercial outcomes front and centre.

What you’ll do (and what you won’t)

• Own Korean marketplace operations across Naver Smart Store, Coupang, Kakao, and other relevant platforms end-to-end.
• Plan and execute promotional campaigns aligned with marketplace and seasonal events.
• Own product listings, merchandising, localised content, and inventory updates to deliver an accurate and compelling customer experience.
• Coordinate marketplace advertising with agencies and account managers.
• Turn marketplace data into actionable insights that improve sales, traffic, and advertising performance.
• Ensure listings meet marketplace requirements while optimising Korean keywords, content, and discoverability.
• Build strong partnerships across internal teams and external marketplace partners to deliver successful marketplace initiatives.
• Identify opportunities to improve assortment, merchandising, and marketplace growth.

You won’t

• Wait for endless approvals.
• Hide behind processes.
• Cruise quietly in the background.
• Mistake activity for impact.

How You’ll Succeed

We look for people who think big, stay curious, and aren’t afraid to go all in to make things happen. You’ll succeed by combining Korean marketplace expertise with commercial curiosity, ownership, and sound judgement. You’ll know when to move quickly, when to collaborate, and when to challenge existing ways of working to deliver better outcomes.

What You’ll Bring

• At least 2 years’ experience managing Korean marketplaces (or strong foundational knowledge for the junior/freelance pathway).
• Fluent English (Korean is a strong asset), with the confidence to communicate effectively with customers, agencies, and platform partners.
• Hands‑on experience with Naver Smart Store, Coupang, and Kakao seller centres.
• Strong understanding of the Korean e-commerce ecosystem, consumer behaviour, and marketplace calendar.
• Confidence to work independently while knowing when collaboration delivers better results.
• Comfortable navigating change, balancing competing priorities, and making data‑informed decisions.
• Experience using marketplace reporting tools such as Coupang WING, Naver Seller Center, and Excel.
• A desire to create meaningful commercial impact, not simply complete tasks.

Loop isn’t for everyone. We might not be a match if you:

• Wait for direction instead of taking initiative.
• Mistake activity for impact.
• Feel uneasy when things are still taking shape.
• Prefer alignment meetings over decisions.
• Spend months polishing work before launching it.
• Pass accountability to others when challenges arise.

Still listening?

Good. We’re not looking for people to watch from the sidelines. Loopers step in, speak up, and go for more. More firsts. More growth. More moments that make you say, “I can’t believe we did that.”
