About this role

Qogita [Ko-gi-ta] is revolutionizing wholesale procurement. We provide a one-stop shop for branded products, available in a single click at competitive prices. Our vision is to build the world’s leading global wholesale trading hub, empowering efficient distribution of goods. We didn’t just improve wholesale - we reinvented it. 

We’re one of the fastest-growing B2B companies globally, backed by top investors behind companies like Facebook, Etsy, and Shopify.

Our tight-knit, highly motivated team thrives on curiosity and impact. Everyone contributes hands-on, takes initiative, and drives results. We value a strong work ethic, smart prioritization, and a relentless focus on excellence. We're expanding our K-beauty supply and want a Korea-based commercial expert to open direct relationships with leading Korean beauty brands and distributors. The proposition you'll carry: direct access to Qogita's European base of retail buyers - demand a brand can reach without standing up its own EU distribution. A commercially driven operator who opens doors and closes deals in the Korean beauty industry. You bring:
  • A live network inside Korean beauty — brands, distributors, or export teams — with warm, current access
  • A track record of brokering B2B/wholesale partnerships to signature, not just making introductions
  • Strong negotiation instincts and fluency in Korean B2B commercial norms
  • The judgment to operate independently and prioritise ruthlessly in a fast-moving environment
  • Fluent Korean and strong business English
  • Access: Identify and reach the right decision-makers at target brands and their export/distribution teams.
  • Meetings: Secure and sit in on commercial meetings, carrying the Qogita proposition credibly.
  • Navigation: Guide us through Korean B2B negotiation structure, etiquette, and deal norms.
  • Close: Help move brands and distributors toward long-term wholesale agreements.

Engagement & Compensation
  • Consulting engagement: monthly retainer (or hourly) + performance fee on qualified introductions and signed agreements
  • Open on structure for the right person
