BD & Marketplace Growth Lead

? Hyderabad | Full-time A Note from the Founders

Most marketplace roles eventually become coordination roles.

Products get listed, sales happen, campaigns run — but very few people truly think about how brands scale profitably over time.

At SkinBae, we are building this differently.

We are looking for someone who naturally thinks in terms of:

- growth opportunities
- revenue ownership
- category leadership
- profitability, not just sales

This role is not about simply managing marketplaces. It is about building scalable growth engines across platforms and helping Korean beauty brands grow meaningfully in India. If you enjoy numbers, strategy, negotiations, and ownership, you’ll enjoy being here.

About SkinBae

SkinBae is building a curated Korean skincare platform in India. We work closely with global Korean beauty brands and focus on education-led storytelling, strong visual identity, and long-term brand building across D2C, marketplaces, and offline retail.

We are scaling rapidly across marketplaces, and this role will directly influence how brands grow across Amazon, Nykaa, TIRA, Myntra, quick commerce, and future channels.
