Foreign Talent Placement and Retention Support Direct Sales Leader

This full-time sales leadership role supports companies facing staffing shortages in sectors such as care, food service, construction, and manufacturing. The work focuses on foreign-talent placement and post-placement retention support through the Specified Skilled Worker system.

Daily responsibilities include developing new corporate accounts and deepening relationships with existing customers. The role identifies required headcount, timing, and candidate conditions, then proposes hiring plans and costs using the Specified Skilled Worker system. It also involves preparing job descriptions, coordinating with overseas sending organizations and domestic candidate channels, arranging interviews between companies and foreign-national staff, and attending and supporting those interviews. An interpreter attends the interviews, so language ability is not required for this work. After an offer, the role coordinates with internal support functions, including registered support personnel, to manage visa application progress and preparations for acceptance. After placement, the role conducts regular company visits, identifies employment-operation issues, and provides follow-up.

Applicants must have at least one year of practical experience in either corporate or individual sales. Experience selling in the staffing industry, including temporary staffing, recruitment, or job advertising, or proposal-sales experience for tangible or intangible products is required. Experience in recruitment, temporary staffing, job advertising, the Specified Skilled Worker system, technical intern employment, or international-student recruitment is welcomed. A clear record of substantially exceeding new-business targets or receiving awards is also welcomed. The posting does not state an education requirement.

The position is part of USEN WORKING, a staffing-solutions business covering recruitment, job advertising, spot work, and foreign-talent hiring and retention support. The wider business also operates services such as STAY WORKER, a medical and care spot-work application, and AI-based recruitment outsourcing. The sales role works with company executives and management as well as operational businesses. The team includes many members from different industries, with mid-career hires making up approximately 30% of the organization.

After joining, employees receive group and business-unit onboarding, followed by one-to-one on-the-job training with a senior employee. The first month is primarily office-based instruction. Regular training covers legal knowledge related to the Specified Skilled Worker system, the services provided, and proposal methods. The posting describes opportunities to progress toward leadership, management, or branch-management positions, including strategy development and member development.

The position is based in Shinagawa, Tokyo. It uses a flextime system with no core hours, a standard working time of seven hours and thirty minutes per day, a 60-minute break, and an example schedule of 9:30 to 18:00. Annual salary is JPY 5,000,000 to 7,000,000. One fourteenth of the annual salary is paid monthly, with an additional one fourteenth paid in June and December. Salary is reviewed once a year in November, and the monthly amount includes deemed pay equivalent to 25 hours of work; the posting states that this deemed pay does not apply to office holders.

The posting lists more than 125 annual holidays, Saturdays, Sundays, and public holidays off, paid leave, summer leave, year-end and New Year leave, refresh leave every three years, condolence leave, childcare and nursing leave, and reduced-hours work for childcare or caregiving. Benefits include social insurance, transportation expenses, a Remote Worker allowance, condolence payments, qualification incentives, U-NEXT and USEN service discounts, resort and leisure subsidies, employee stock ownership, savings and defined-contribution pension plans, group insurance, health examinations, sports and flu-vaccination support, online medical consultation, and various partner discounts.
