Position Overview

The eCommerce Strategy Lead (Concurrent Key Account Manager) is responsible for managing a portfolio of international brands entering and growing within the Japanese market. This role combines strategic account leadership, e-commerce consulting, and commercial ownership.

As the primary point of contact for clients, the successful candidate serves as the bridge between clients and WPIC's e-commerce, marketing, logistics, technology, and operations teams, driving long-term account growth and revenue expansion.

【Key Responsibilities】

E-Commerce Strategy \& Market Intelligence

  • Develop and execute e-commerce growth strategies across Amazon Japan, Rakuten, Shopify, and other relevant channels.
  • Support market-entry and go-to-market planning for international brands entering Japan.
  • Provide strategic guidance on assortment planning, pricing, promotions, merchandising, and channel development.
  • Grow engagements by introducing clients to WPIC's wider services.
  • Research market trends, consumer preferences, and competitors in Japan's e-commerce market.

Commercial \& Financial Ownership

  • Own portfolio performance, including budgeting, forecasting, and P\&L management.
  • Monitor and analyze KPIs — sales, ROAS, profitability, and operational metrics — and turn the analysis into recommendations that improve client performance.
  • Find upsell, cross-sell, and new-business opportunities within existing accounts, and work with internal teams to hit revenue targets.
  • Support annual planning and revenue growth initiatives; assist the sales team with business development activities as requested.

Cross-Functional Leadership \& Collaboration

  • Coordinate internal teams across E-Commerce, Marketing, Logistics, Operations, and Technology — driving accountability and alignment to deliver client objectives on time.
  • Guide and oversee junior team members (e.g., Coordinators) — delegating tasks, reviewing quality, and supporting their development.
  • Promote collaboration and best-practice sharing across teams; coordinate with other Key Account Managers and Strategy Leads as needed.

Client \& Account Management

  • Act as the main strategic advisor and day-to-day contact for your accounts — covering onboarding, communications, and program planning.
  • Lead recurring client meetings (weekly, bi-weekly, monthly, quarterly, annual), business reviews, and strategic planning sessions.
  • Manage client expectations, project scope, deliverables, and timelines through to completion.
  • Build strong relationships with client decision-makers and understand their business goals.
  • Build processes to streamline recurring work and improve account efficiency.
  • Gather client feedback and share it with internal teams to drive improvement.
