This role sits at the heart of how a major global prestige beauty brand grows across e-commerce in Asia Pacific.

As Senior Manager, e-Commerce Planning & Strategy, you'll be the strategic lead for the brand's regional e-commerce business — with Amazon as a primary growth channel. You'll work embedded with the client and WPP teams to shape how the brand shows up, competes, and wins across the digital shelf.

This isn't a campaign management role. It's a business ownership role — one that requires you to think commercially, connect media to outcomes, and influence decisions across planning, content, and investment.

• Own the regional e-commerce growth agenda for a major global prestige beauty brand, with Amazon as a key focus channel
• Develop and steward annual and quarterly business plans — translating brand objectives into channel-level growth strategies
• Identify where growth is being won or lost, and build clear plans to act on it
• Lead Joint Business Planning (JBP) with Amazon, aligning on priorities, investment, and shared KPIs
• Work with Amazon stakeholders to unlock visibility and partnership opportunities (e.g., Premium Beauty, search placements, tentpole moments)

• Set the strategic direction for all Amazon Paid Media, ensuring it ladders up to business outcomes — not just platform metrics
• Own performance across revenue, ROAS, ACOS, and TACOS
• Make smart calls on when to invest aggressively for growth versus when to optimise for efficiency
• Stay close to performance and move quickly when conditions shift

• Ensure the brand's product pages are conversion-ready — strong content, accurate availability, competitive positioning
• Drive continuous improvement across PDPs, ratings, reviews, and anything else that influences purchase
• Proactively flag and resolve issues that are hurting performance

• Align paid and organic strategy so they reinforce each other
• Use media investment to build long-term organic visibility and category rank
• Ensure consistency of messaging and content across the full funnel

• The brand's e-commerce business grows consistently across the region, with Amazon as a strong contributor
• TACOS remains healthy even as we scale investment
• The brand maintains strong share of voice and visibility in key prestige beauty categories
• Clear, measurable proof that media investment is driving incremental business outcomes

• →4–6 years of experience in e-commerce or total commerce, with at least 2 years of hands-on Amazon experience
• →A track record of building and executing e-commerce growth strategies — not just running campaigns
• →Experience working in or alongside agencies, managing multiple stakeholders across client and partner teams
• →Strong commercial acumen — comfortable owning a P&L lens and making data-driven decisions
• →Experience in beauty, FMCG, or premium consumer goods is a plus

• You think like a business owner, not a media operator
• You can connect the dots between media, content, and commercial outcomes
• You're confident challenging the status quo and pushing clients and teams toward better results
• You thrive in ambiguity, move at pace, and always know what to prioritise
