The posting

Do you have experience from business consulting or strategic analysis and thrive on delivering value to clients within market expansion and growth? Do you enjoy working at the intersection of business and public sector, engaging with executives, government representatives, and key decision-makers? Take this opportunity to be part of Business Sweden’s South Korea team.

We are looking for an Associate / Consultant to further strengthen our team in South Korea. The work ranges from complex strategic deals to operational projects, where clients vary from multinationals to small family-owned businesses, making the work dynamic, challenging and rewarding.

Business Sweden is the official trade and invest council of Sweden, jointly owned by the Swedish state and the private sector. Our team of advisors and industry experts provide insights, strategy, and hands-on support in more than 40 markets worldwide.

As part of our trade promotion assignment from the Swedish government, we build strategic platforms that we use to position Swedish competency and companies in sectors and areas of strength. As part of our investment promotion assignment, we support foreign companies to make high quality investments and expand in Sweden.

As an Associate / Consultant, you will work as part of project teams supporting Swedish companies with their international growth. Your work will include:

  • Contribute to business acceleration projects for Swedish companies, including market entry studies, sales support, government engagement, and stakeholder analysis.
  • Supporting customer, partner and stakeholder interviews.
  • Developing insights and strategic recommendations for clients.
  • Support the planning and execution of trade promotion programmes, assisting Swedish companies in establishing and expanding their business presence in South Korea.
  • Assist in business development and sales activities for Business Sweden’s services, including outreach and coordination of meetings with Swedish companies in Sweden and across the region.
  • Develop market reports and insights on business opportunities relevant to Swedish companies across South Korea, APAC, and global projects.
  • Working closely with colleagues across Business Sweden’s international network.

The role offers broad exposure across industries, clients and types of assignments, with the opportunity to combine strategic analysis with hands-on business development in an international environment.

The role is based in Seoul, but you will be expected to work with our teams and clients around the world, as required.

We apply probationary employment in all applicable positions.

  • A problem solver who easily adapts to new ways of working.
  • Voice your own ideas and share opinions. Show appreciation for different perspectives.

  • 0-2 years (Associate) / 3-5 years (Consultant) of relevant work experience, preferably in consulting, sales, marketing, or trade promotion.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
