The Human Resources Coordinator supports daily HR administration at Sheraton Kagoshima, including employee records, recruitment coordination, onboarding, attendance and benefits administration, training support, internal communication, and compliance with company policies and Japanese employment regulations. Candidates are expected to have strong organizational and communication skills, attention to detail, discretion when handling confidential information, and the ability to work collaboratively with colleagues from different backgrounds. Previous hotel or HR experience is advantageous. Business-level Japanese is likely required, while English ability is helpful in Marriott’s international environment. Familiarity with Microsoft Office and a professional, service-oriented attitude are also expected.
Sheraton Kagoshima is part of Marriott International, one of the world’s largest hotel companies, operating a broad portfolio of hospitality brands in destinations worldwide. The Sheraton brand focuses on welcoming, community-oriented hotels that connect guests with the local area while providing comfortable accommodation, dining, meetings, and leisure facilities. Located in Kagoshima, the property serves business travelers, tourists, groups, and local events, and benefits from the city’s position as a gateway to southern Kyushu. Marriott promotes professional development, international career opportunities, ethical business practices, and inclusive workplaces. Employees typically work in a multicultural hospitality environment where guest service, teamwork, operational standards, and respect for colleagues are central to the company culture.
Japan offers opportunities in hotels, restaurants, tourism, technology, education, manufacturing, healthcare, and customer service. Kagoshima, on Kyushu Island, has a relaxed lifestyle, lower living costs than Tokyo, warm weather, volcanic scenery, hot springs, and good access to beaches and nearby islands. Japanese workplace culture values punctuality, teamwork, politeness, hierarchy, and careful attention to detail. Daily life is convenient, with reliable public transport, supermarkets, healthcare, and excellent food, although Japanese language ability is important outside major international workplaces. Foreign employees generally need an appropriate work visa sponsored by an employer; hospitality roles may use an Engineer/Specialist in Humanities/International Services visa or the Specified Skilled Worker route, depending on duties and qualifications. Relocation usually requires arranging housing, residence registration, health insurance, a bank account, and a phone contract. Requirements should be confirmed with the employer and Japanese immigration authorities.
