We combine the agility of a startup with the scale and resources of a global public company. This unique blend empowers us to launch new services at speed, drive innovation, and make a tangible impact every day. At Coupang, you’ll grow alongside bold, hands-on, and ambitious teammates who are passionate about shaping the future of commerce.

On Rocket Growth (RG):

Rocket Growth is a dynamic business unit focused on driving innovation, scale, and strategic growth across emerging markets and categories. We are building a brand that stands for bold thinking, transformative impact, and future-forward leadership.

A. Sales Planning & Performance Management

  • Strategic Planning: Act as the primary planning partner to designated Category Leaders, coordinating and driving the annual, quarterly, and ongoing sales planning processes.

  • Goal Setting & Tracking: Establish and maintain robust performance tracking mechanisms (KPIs, OKRs) to monitor category sales execution against strategic objectives.

  • Deep-Dive Analysis: Conduct detailed, hypothesis-driven analysis of sales performance, market trends, and category performance to identify risks, opportunities, and areas for optimization.

B. Strategic Storytelling & Executive Presentation

  • Executive Readouts: Present key findings, strategic recommendations, and performance summaries with conviction, translating complex planning and tracking data into actionable business insights.

  • Scalable Solutions: Lead the team in the development and implementation of reusable, automated, and scalable planning and tracking assets (e.g., dashboards, templates, data models).

  • Sales Enablement: Drive the transition toward a 'self-serve' data model, enabling the broader sales team to access performance data and tracking insights directly and efficiently.

II. Required Qualifications & Experience

  • Communication: Exceptional written and verbal communication skills, with a proven ability to summarize complex issues into a crisp, consumable storyline for executive audiences.

III. Preferred Qualifications

  • Management Consulting: Prior experience at a top-tier management consulting firm is a strong advantage.
