ShopBack searching for Singapore's biggest online shopaholic

E-commerce start-up ShopBack is teaming up with online social networking service LinkedIn to hunt for its Chief Shopping Officer.

The Chief Shopping Officer will identify the best deals and shop for him or herself at any of ShopBack’s 500+ merchant partners, including Singapore Airlines, FoodPanda, Cathay Cineplexes, Grab and more.

The online loyalty platform will provide SGD11,271 in shopping funds for the role, which will commence from 1 March – 30 April 2018. All purchases and cashback accumulated during the period of employment will be for the Chief Shopping Officer to keep thereafter.

Applications for the temporary role will run for three weeks (ending on March 5, 2018) on LinkedIn and the Chief Shopping Officer will be officially announced on March 13, 2018.

“There’s no better way for us to find out what our customers want than picking a Chief Shopping Officer from among them. Most of these customers do not necessarily have a professional background as a shopper and have regular day jobs. We wanted to tap professionals on LinkedIn, who may be a hardcore programmer by day, but an online bargain hunter at night,” said Vincent Wong, country head at ShopBack Singapore.

ShopBack said it is looking for candidates who can work remotely with at least two to three years of online shopping experience with a knack for sniffing out the best online bargains. The role also requires some video editing skills and being on camera.

Linda Lee, LinkedIn’s head of communications for South-east Asia and North Asia, added the company is seeing companies in Singapore and the Asia-Pacific region hire for more fun and unconventional roles on the website.
