Seller Consultant, JP Targeted Recruitment Team

Amazon Global Selling is seeking a Seller Consultant to join the Japan Targeted Recruitment (TR) team within NSR, based in Shenzhen. The TR team takes a proactive, research-driven approach to identify, engage, and onboard high-quality Chinese sellers with strong product-market fit for the Japanese marketplace — one of Amazon's fastest-growing cross-border destinations.
As a Seller Consultant, you will own a portfolio of assigned seller relationships and deliver measurable business outcomes across the full seller lifecycle — from prospecting and consultative engagement to launch execution and post-launch growth.

You will build expertise in JP market dynamics, use data and industry intelligence to execute the team's recruitment strategy, and work with cross-functional teams to resolve barriers to seller success.
This role requires strong communication skills, attention to detail, and the ability to prioritize and follow through on a defined plan. You will develop working knowledge of JP seller recruitment, apply the team's playbooks in your daily work, and contribute feedback to improve recruitment quality and seller productivity.
Key job responsibilities
- Build category knowledge through industry research (supply chain, manufacturing clusters, pricing, seasonal trends), and execute category-level recruitment plans based on JP marketplace gaps and demand signals.
- Build a high-quality seller pipeline through industry cluster mapping, trade shows, factory visits, and cross-marketplace analysis; apply and adapt segment-specific pitch content for different seller types.
- Own the end-to-end onboarding experience for your assigned sellers and drive seller success.
- Provide data-driven post-launch consulting to drive seller tiering-up, deliver selection guidance, and drive cross-launch from NA/EU into JP.
- Surface gaps and support new initiatives (e.g., cluster engagement program); contribute to cross-functional projects by owning assigned workstreams and documenting repeatable processes.
- Work with cross-functional teams on GTM execution and seller logistics optimization; support Amazon's presence at industry events.
A day in the life
Your week combines desk research, seller conversations, and time in the field.

You might start by working through marketplace data to find where JP demand is unmet and which Chinese manufacturing clusters could fill the gap, then turn that analysis into a target list and a pitch tailored to that segment. Mornings often go to seller calls — walking a factory owner through what selling on Amazon Japan actually involves, or helping an existing seller read their post-launch performance data and decide which products to expand next.
Several times a quarter you will be on the road: visiting factories in a target cluster, working a trade show booth, or supporting a closed-door seller event.

Back at your desk, you will move your pipeline forward in CRM, unblock onboarding issues with Compliance, Logistics, and Account Management partners, and write up what worked so the rest of the team can reuse it. No two weeks look the same, and you will have a clear view of how your pipeline is converting into launches and GMS.
