About this role

An administrative role on the product development team for Kakiyasu Dining, the company's prepared-food counters in department-store food halls. The team consists of six development administrators and three developers, working from the Tokyo head office alongside the company's chefs.

The work centres on recipe management: creating, updating and maintaining recipes with photos, cost and selling prices so that every store nationwide can cook the same product consistently, and revising them when ingredient prices change. The role also prepares documents, data and meeting materials for new-product planning and trial cooking, gathering information from internal and external contacts; arranges ingredients and adjusts stock for development; compiles and analyses product sales results; issues rollout instructions to stores introducing new products; and researches competitors' products and market trends.

Office administration experience is required; any length of experience is accepted.
