#Amazon Japan
The Amazon team currently sells our brand products on Amazon in eight countries, including the US, Europe, Japan, and Australia. Among these, I manage the Amorepacific brands on Amazon Japan. My tasks involve registering products, organizing detailed pages, and crafting appealing product descriptions. I feel a sense of accomplishment and pride when I see comments about purchasing our products on Amazon Japan or notice the ranking of AP products rising on the platform.
#Wise Work Life
My favorite spot at the company is undoubtedly the courtyard on the 5th floor. On sunny days, the unobstructed view of Yongsan Park makes me feel refreshed as if I’m on a leisurely outing. I love having coffee with my team members in the courtyard after lunch. As a cosmetics company, we have many opportunities to participate in pop-up events in various headquarters spaces. Exploring these events, which showcase vital products, new releases, and trends from each brand, often makes me realize how exciting it is to work in the beauty industry.
#Anime Collector
I lived in Japan for seven years, studying at university and working. Immersing myself in Japanese culture on-site made me fall even more in love with the unique sensibilities embedded in Japanese animation and films. At work, I also joined the Japan ward of the 'Global Ward' club, where I met fellow anime enthusiasts. My favorite is CLAMP, a Japanese artist group famous for "Cardcaptor Sakura." I have a hobby of collecting anime merchandise, owning over 100 comic books and more than 20 figures.
#Mix and Match
In my twenties, I enjoyed dressing more flamboyantly than anyone else. Now that I work at a company, I prefer a clean and neat look. However, adding a touch of flair with accessories is essential. For a dandy look, I favor SPA brands for shirts and slacks. Given my long arms and legs, I particularly frequent foreign SPA brands. When I want to make a statement, I use luxury items like twilly scarves, brooches, and large or mini bags.
#Love myself
Loving myself is the most crucial motto in my life. I love myself so much that I even create my own merchandise, such as phone cases, photo cards, and stickers. No one else can take care of and cherish me better than myself. This mindset benefits me mentally and helps me stay physically healthy, as it encourages constant self-care. By taking care of myself and radiating positive energy, I strive to be someone who spreads positive influence in my social life.
In-ho Kim’s Recruitment Tips
The Amazon team sells our brand products directly on Amazon platforms in eight countries, including the US, Europe, and Japan. We manage everything from shipping and exporting to listing, PDP optimization, and on-site marketing like search ads. To enhance brand awareness and increase Amazon traffic, we collaborate with TikTok and influencers in each country and support Amazon business operations for overseas subsidiaries.
A thorough understanding of Amazon's global commerce platform is crucial for this job. Experience in selling directly on Amazon as a seller or managing Amazon at another company will be a significant advantage. Even if you lack this experience, understanding global online markets from a consumer perspective can be incredibly beneficial.
