Position Overview
The Key Account Manager & Strategy Lead (Japan) 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】
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.
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.

- Aptitude for digital tool adoption and process building to enhance team efficiency.

【Ideal Candidate Profile】
