As K-beauty continues to dominate social commerce, we're expanding our dedicated practice serving Korean beauty and skincare brands on TikTok Shop. We're seeking Korean-speaking account managers who bridge the gap between Korean brand partners and our US-based execution teams, ensuring seamless communication across cultures and operations.

Spotlight is a high-performing, entrepreneurial culture where ambitious operators thrive on ownership, autonomy, and speed. You'll have the trust, resources, and runway to drive real impact for leading K-beauty brands.

Role Overview

You'll be the execution engine for TikTok Shop accounts, specifically our K-beauty brand portfolio, working directly under a Senior Account Manager. You'll translate strategy into action, maintain shop health, and deliver consistent, high-quality execution across teams.

Key Requirements: Fluency in Korean (written and spoken) and ability to accommodate Korean business hours (KST) for client communications, calls, and real-time coordination. You'll serve as the primary point of contact for Korean-speaking brand stakeholders.

This learn-by-doing role is designed for high-agency operators. Early focus is execution and account operations.

• Account Management: Monitor campaign performance, flag issues early, coordinate across teams, and ensure timely execution
• Shop Health & Operations: Oversee product listings, promotional calendars, inventory coordination, and operational excellence
• Build relationships with brand stakeholders and act as trusted advisor on TikTok Shop best practices
• Contribute to strategic growth initiatives as your scope expands with demonstrated ownership
