Role overview

Own profitable category and brand growth through sales planning, consumer marketing, launches, and disciplined retail execution.

The role offers commercial ownership beyond a traditional buying-only role, spanning sales, margin, stock productivity, pricing, promotions, marketing, and launches.

Commercial sales ownership

  • Own category and brand sales, gross-margin, and stock-productivity targets across stores and e-commerce.
  • Build monthly plans by brand, category, channel, and store; review results weekly and close performance gaps.
  • Use sales, customer, and competitor data to optimize assortment, pricing, promotions, replenishment, and availability.
  • Drive action on slow-moving and ageing stock through campaigns, incentives, bundles, and brand-supported initiatives.

Brand and marketing leadership

  • Create and execute calendars for launches, campaigns, events, content, promotions, and customer engagement.
  • Lead new-brand and product launches from commercial planning through in-store and online execution.
  • Secure brand support such as media assets, testers, samples, gifts, training, and promotional funding.
  • Partner with Operations, Marketing, Visual Merchandising, E-commerce, Training, and Supply Chain.

Candidate profile

  • Minimum 5–7 years of relevant beauty experience in skincare, makeup, haircare, fragrance, or beauty devices.
  • Must have resources among suppliers of local Thai brands; experience at Eveandboys or Beautytrium is preferred.
  • Proven sales growth and consumer-facing marketing campaign results in beauty retail, distribution, or brand management.
  • Strong command of sales, margin, stock, pricing, promotions, and category performance.
  • International beauty-brand and multi-channel retail experience; UAE or GCC experience is strongly preferred.
  • Confident, analytical, and action-oriented, with strong negotiation, communication, and stakeholder-management skills.

Success measures

Sales and gross margin; brand and category growth; launch execution; stock productivity; marketing ROI and brand support.

Opportunity

The role provides end-to-end exposure from commercial planning and brand negotiations through retail and e-commerce execution.

The position supports building a broader commercial and brand-management profile in the international beauty industry.
