Description

About the company:
Established in 2013, we are a growing company whose mission is to be a bridge between bright, active international people and innovative companies in Japan aspiring to be global.

Commonly held beliefs of homogeneity in Japanese society is perhaps best reflected in one of its oldest aphorisms “the nail that sticks out gets hammered in.” As a result of this, many people, particularly those with an international background do not feel able to express their uniqueness entirely - this is particularly evident in Japan's work culture.

Our company sees conforming to traditional systems, particularly in job-hunting in Japan (i.e. Shukatsu) limits fulfillment in the work place and impedes innovation in Japan. By connecting global talent to Japan's most innovative companies we hope to foster diversity and inclusivity in Japan.

Our team is composed of highly motivated people, from various nationalities, with different cultural/educational/working background but with the collective ambition of building expertise in the human capital field, be it as sales manager, career consultant or others.

We embrace diversity and multiculturalism, and as such, we aspire to become a role model for companies in other industries too.
