About the job

Requirements
  • 8–10+ years in digital marketing, content strategy, or creative strategy within beauty, consumer goods, or a high-velocity consumer brand
  • Proven ability to develop globally scalable digital campaigns — with a strong track record of content that performs, not just impresses
  • Deep fluency in platform content ecosystems: TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, Amazon, and DTC e-commerce — including how each platform's algorithm rewards and surfaces content
  • Strong working knowledge of SEO, Amazon search, and e-commerce content best practices (PDP, A+ content, keyword strategy)
  • Experience working within or alongside global organizations; comfortable collaborating across time zones and cultures
  • Ability to translate complex strategy into clear, actionable frameworks that non-specialist teams can execute
  • Strong communicator and presenter — equally effective with creative partners and executive stakeholders
  • Experience managing direct reports
Responsibilities
  • Lead the development of global digital-first campaign strategies for Laneige launches — campaigns conceived for how people actually consume content, not adapted for it after the fact
  • Define content strategies that drive performance across platforms: TikTok (organic and Shop), Instagram, YouTube, Google, Amazon, and retailer.com environments
  • Build campaign and content frameworks that are modular and market-ready — designed to be localized and activated by regional teams without losing strategic integrity
  • Serve as the global digital content strategy resource for regions that lack in-market TikTok Shop, Amazon, or broader e-commerce content capability
  • Report back on success metrics (KPIs met or exceeded, campaign learnings, etc.)
  • Own the strategic approach to digital discoverability across search (Google, Amazon), social algorithms (TikTok, Instagram), and e-commerce platforms
  • Partner with the copywriter and creative teams to ensure SEO/AI discoverability, keyword strategy, and platform-specific content requirements are embedded at the campaign strategy stage
  • Stay ahead of platform changes, algorithm updates, and emerging content formats; translate those into strategic recommendations before they become reactive fixes
  • Develop content strategies for brand.com, retailer.com, and marketplace environments (Amazon, TikTok Shop) that convert — including PDP strategy, A+ content direction, and platform-specific storytelling frameworks
  • Ensure e-commerce content is aligned with global campaign strategy while meeting the specific performance requirements of each retail environment
  • Build activation toolkits, playbooks, and guidance that make it easy for regional teams to execute global strategy at the local level
  • Partner closely with Seoul HQ to align on global priorities, incorporate regional market intelligence, and influence platform investment decisions
  • Work cross-functionally with brand, creative, media, and retail teams to ensure digital strategy is integrated from the earliest stage of campaign development
  • Manage and develop the Manager of Global Digital Creative Strategy
  • Help build and define the function as Laneige's global digital capabilities scale

Simplify's Take

What believers are saying

  • Q2 2026 Amorepacific revenue rose 14.6% and operating profit jumped 53.3%.
  • AP Beauty posted solid Hong Kong growth after Prime Reserve Protocol launched in 2026.
  • Overseas expansion into Japan, APAC, and EMEA improves AP Beauty’s runway beyond Korea.

What critics are saying

  • AP Beauty relies on Amorepacific’s broader portfolio; Sulwhasoo and Laneige can starve its capital.
  • 2026 marketing spend surged 19.7% in Q1 and 37.0% in Q2, pressuring margins.
  • Amazon Luxury Stores and luxury retail standardize prestige skincare, eroding AP Beauty’s pricing power quickly.

What makes AP Beauty unique

  • AP Beauty fuses Amorepacific’s 1954 lab heritage with clinically inspired luxury skincare.
  • March 2026 Amazon Luxury Stores launch gives AP Beauty prestige distribution and global reach.
  • Proprietary lines M.D. and Prime Reserve Protocol emphasize patents, barrier repair, and anti-aging science.
