• Reports to: Brand Leads
• Location: Seoul, South Korea

Our Mission & Growth

Our mission to positively impact people's lives every day in every home around the world allows our employees to be thinkers and tinkerers, designers and doers, creators and number crunchers, makers of things they love.

SharkNinja is expanding our APAC business and scaling it rapidly. Our two brands, Shark and Ninja, have enjoyed unprecedented growth in the past 5 years, driven mainly by a very strong innovation pipeline and impactful market presence. Given this success, SharkNinja has embarked on a bold plan for growing our APAC business, in which South Korea plays a critical role. We plan to scale South Korea on the back of disruptive product innovation and marketing investments.

Role Overview

We are seeking a proactive, highly organized, and growth-oriented Marketing Assistant to join our dynamic Marketing Team in Seoul.

This role is a pivotal operational backbone for our fast-growing branch. Instead of separating roles by brand or channel, this position will cross-functionally support both Brand Marketing (Shark, Ninja) and E-commerce Marketing Operations.

The ideal candidate will manage the marketing budget (A/BTL) end-to-end, execute essential administrative and financial workflows (PR/PO, GR processing, vendor management), and act as a primary operational coordinator between internal cross-functional teams (Finance, Legal, Supply Chain) and external partners (Agencies etc.). This is an exceptional entry-to-junior level opportunity (1–3 years of experience) for someone who wants to learn the full spectrum of global marketing operations, social media, and BTL execution to grow into a well-rounded marketing professional.

Here are some of the EXCITING things you will get to do:

[Budget Management & Financial Operations (A/BTL)]

• Support both Brand (Shark, Ninja) and E-commerce marketing teams in tracking and managing A/BTL marketing budgets.
• Handle vendor setup, create Purchase Requests (PR) / Purchase Orders (PO), and manage Good Request (GR) / Goods Receipt processes to ensure smooth payment cycles in Oracle.
• Track monthly invoicing plans vs. actual expenditures with high accuracy; validate, archive, and follow up on final invoice clearances with the Finance team.
• Assist in preparing monthly budget reconciliation and actual spending reports for the marketing leadership team.

[Social Media & Influencer Marketing Operations]

• Support the day-to-day operations of official social media channels (e.g., Instagram, YouTube) including content scheduling, publishing, and community engagement/monitoring.
• Coordinate influencer and creator gifting/seeding programs: manage communication pipelines, handle contract documentation, and track final content postings against guidelines.
• Consolidate monthly social media and influencer campaign performance reports, tracking key engagement metrics and coverage clips.

[BTL Campaigns & Event Execution Support]

• Provide hands-on operational and administrative support for consumer-facing BTL activities, such as pop-up stores, consumer events, exhibitions, and offline viral activations.
• Assist in scheduling, logistics coordination, and onsite operations for live commerce sessions, ensuring all product samples and promotional materials are prepared.
• Act as a point of contact for external creative, PR, and event production agencies to ensure project timelines, operational workflows, and budget documentation are flawlessly aligned.

[Integrated Marketing & E-commerce Operations]

• Provide administrative and operational support across both brand campaigns and online marketplace activities without boundary lines.
• Coordinate product copy translations, proofread marketing assets, and provide localized quality checks for the Korean market.
• Conduct routine desktop research and monitor competitor activities (social campaigns, promotions, pricing changes) across online channels to share with the team.
• Maintain organized digital archives for all marketing assets, execution reports, and agency creative materials.

[Product Sample & Logistics Management]

• Coordinate product sample ordering, importation, and delivery in close collaboration with Supply Chain and logistics teams.
• Manage timely sample distribution to agencies, influencers, media, and e-commerce partners, maintaining an accurate sample inventory log for campaigns, PR, and BTL events.

Required Skills And Qualifications

• Experience: 1–3 years of relevant work experience in marketing operations, marketing coordination, or digital/social media coordination (experience in a multinational or fast-paced consumer goods company is highly preferred).
• Education: Bachelor’s degree in Business, Marketing, or a related field (or equivalent practical experience).
• Skills:- Strong numerical aptitude and meticulous attention to detail (essential for budget, PR/PO, and GR tracking).
• Solid understanding of domestic social media trends, platforms (Instagram, YouTube), and influencer landscape.
• Highly organized with the ability to multitask and manage operational timelines efficiently.
• Proficient in MS Office, especially Excel (pivot tables, basic formulas) and PowerPoint. Experience with Oracle or similar ERP systems is a plus.
• Languages: Fluent in both Korean and English (both written and spoken business communication are required for cross-functional collaboration with regional teams).
• Mindset: A proactive, "can-do" attitude with a strong desire to learn both brand and e-commerce marketing operations from the ground up.

Our Success Drivers & Mindset

• "RARELY SATISFIED": Always looking for ways to improve and optimize operations.
• "PROGRESS OVER PERFECTION": Moving fast, learning quickly, and making things better each day.
• "DETAILS MAKE THE DIFFERENCE": Caring deeply about operational accuracy and consumer insights.
• "WINNING IS A TEAM SPORT": Supporting cross-functional partners to win together.
• "COMMUNICATING FOR IMPACT": Clear, honest, and timely alignment across teams.
