Korea Practice Coordinator

Gatewell's Korean clients are midcap electronics manufacturers working through US market access for the first time. They should never feel like they are working through a translator. This role is why.

완전한 한국어·영어 이중언어 구사자를 찾습니다. 로스앤젤레스 정규직 채용입니다.

What you would do

• Handle day-to-day client communication with Korean manufacturers (email, KakaoTalk, and calls) in whichever language the client prefers.
• Translate and quality-check documents in both directions: intake questionnaires, evidence requests, filing correspondence, and engagement paperwork. Regulatory accuracy matters more than elegance here.
• Manage the Korean export voucher (수출바우처) paperwork and coordinate with KOTRA's Los Angeles desk.
• Support meetings across a fifteen-hour time difference, including occasional early-morning calls, and keep the record of what was agreed.
• Keep the CRM current on Korean-market accounts.

Who this is for

• Fully bilingual Korean and English, including professional written Korean. You will be drafting client correspondence, not just interpreting.
• Some exposure to export documentation, trade support, freight forwarding, or manufacturing client service. Not required, but it shortens the ramp considerably.
• Organized and reliable about follow-through. Much of this job is making sure nothing is dropped across a time zone gap.
• Authorized to work in the United States. We are not able to sponsor a visa for this role.

Compensation and location

• $65,000 to $85,000, depending on experience.
• Full-time, in-house. Hybrid from our office at 811 W 7th Street in downtown Los Angeles, a short distance from Koreatown.
• You must reside in Southern California and be authorized to work in the United States. We do not sponsor employment visas.
• California paid sick leave and all other legally required benefits.

About Gatewell Group

Gatewell Group is a Los Angeles compliance firm built for the FCC Covered List era, and we work both sides of the gate. For US importers, distributors, EPCs and project developers, we run vendor-bench diligence and build the origin-evidence files that establish which hardware lines are covered, grandfathered, or clean. For manufacturers in Korea, Taiwan, Japan and Europe, we take a deliberately limited number of Conditional Approval filing engagements each year, with US manufacturing plans and domestic-content engineering behind them.

We publish the Gatewell Protocol for Origin Evidence, an open documentation standard for demonstrating non-covered origin, with a public certification registry. It is free to use, cite, and require of counterparties.

Gatewell Group is not a law firm; filings are prepared with supervising counsel. We screen every engagement and every hire against OFAC/SDN, and we do not take PRC-nexus work.
