The Opportunity
We are currently hiring multiple positions across two desks on our B to C team:

• SCM / Logistics Recruiting Consultant
• Accounting & Finance Recruiting Consultant

For each desk, we are open to candidates at two levels depending on experience and readiness:
■ Associate Consultant
For candidates earlier in their career who want to build a long-term future in recruitment. You'll start candidate-side, work closely with senior consultants, and progress toward running your own full-cycle desk.

■ Recruiting Consultant
For candidates with recruitment or relevant sales and business development experience who are ready to manage the full recruitment cycle independently from day one.

Both roles sit on a warm desk with:

• Active job orders ready to work
• Long-standing client relationships
• Hundreds of contracted clients
• A strong existing candidate network in your specialism

What You'll Be Doing
Associate Consultant

• Source and manage candidates through LinkedIn, job boards, referrals, headhunting, and our internal database
• Build talent pipelines and conduct market mapping in your specialism
• Support senior consultants on active searches and live roles
• Speak with candidates and guide them through the recruitment process
• Progress steadily toward running your own full-cycle desk

Recruiting Consultant

• Run a full 360 recruitment desk in your specialism (SCM or Finance)
• Develop new business and manage existing client relationships
• Own the full recruitment cycle from intake to offer negotiation and close
• Advise clients on hiring strategy, talent availability, and market conditions
• Source, assess, and introduce high-quality bilingual candidates
• Collaborate across SCM, Finance, and HR desks to drive team performance

Real Entrepreneurship
This is a highly BD-driven company. Consultants build their own market — most sign 12–15 new clients per year through their own initiatives. You'll have genuine ownership of your desk and real room to grow.

Learn From Top Billers
Work directly alongside high performers and leadership. Hands-on mentorship, detailed SOPs, in-house training, and a knowledge-sharing culture that actually functions.

Warm Desk From Day One
Ongoing active roles, existing clients, and a live candidate network in your specialism. You're not starting from zero.

Boutique Culture — Less Politics, More Recruiting
Candidates, clients, and leads are shared across the team. Strong teamwork is a genuine part of how we operate, not just something we say.

Clear Career Path
Consultant ⇒ Senior Consultant ⇒ Team Manager / Director / Top Biller track. Growth is based on performance, not tenure.

Is This You ?
We're not looking for the most experienced person in the room. We're looking for someone who is smart, hungry, and ready to put in the work to build something real.
If you ask great questions, take ownership of your results, communicate with confidence, and want to be genuinely rewarded for what you deliver — we'd like to hear from you.

Who We're Looking For
We'll be honest: recruiting experience matters less to us than the kind of person you are.
Our best performers aren't necessarily the ones with the longest resumes. They're the ones who ask sharp, relevant questions. Who aren't intimidated by senior executives. Who pick themselves up quickly, learn from what didn't work, and come back stronger. Who invest in their own development without being told to. Who move fast, communicate clearly, and don't let things slip.

If that's how you operate — we want to talk to you.
The profile we're looking for:

• Sharp and intellectually curious — you ask great questions and get to the point
• Confident and composed — comfortable speaking with anyone, at any level
• Resilient — you don't get discouraged easily and you take accountability for your results
• A fast learner — you absorb information quickly and improve after the first time
• Proactive and self-driven — you don't wait to be told, you take initiative
• Strong communicator — clear, direct, and professional in both Japanese and English
• Hard-working and consistent — you show up, follow through, and don't let things fall through the cracks

Backgrounds that translate well:
Sales, business development, inside sales, account management, customer success, HR, consulting, staffing, or any role where you've had to build relationships, hit targets, and think on your feet. We've hired people from very different backgrounds — what they all had in common was drive, intelligence, and a genuine willingness to work hard.

Language requirement:
Native Japanese with business-level English, or native English with intermediate or higher Japanese required for both roles.
