This role supports Rakuten Mobile shop operations through sales planning, performance analysis, reporting, campaign coordination, and communication with regional teams and shop managers. Candidates should have experience in sales support, planning, business operations, retail, or a related field, along with strong Excel and presentation skills. Japanese communication ability is likely essential, while experience in telecommunications, retail networks, or data analysis is advantageous. The successful candidate is expected to organize information accurately, identify sales issues, prepare practical improvement plans, and coordinate effectively with multiple stakeholders. A proactive, detail-oriented, commercially minded person who can work independently in a fast-changing environment will be well suited to the position.

Japan offers opportunities in technology, telecommunications, retail, finance, manufacturing, tourism, education, and healthcare, with Tokyo, Osaka, Nagoya, and Fukuoka serving as major employment centers. Work culture often values punctuality, preparation, teamwork, and respectful communication, though international companies may use more flexible practices. Japan provides excellent public transport, reliable services, safe cities, rich food traditions, and varied lifestyles from dense urban living to quieter coastal or rural communities. Foreign workers generally need an appropriate work visa, usually sponsored by an employer; requirements depend on the role and qualifications. Relocating involves arranging housing, residence registration, health insurance, banking, and sometimes a residence card and local guarantor. Japanese language ability significantly improves daily life and career prospects, even when English is used at work. Costs are highest in central Tokyo, while regional cities may offer lower rent and a more relaxed pace.
