Lead B2B web projects from client interviews and planning through delivery, team coordination, scheduling, and post-release improvement. Full-time Tokyo role with remote work and core-time flextime.
About this role
This full-time Web Director role leads client-facing web development projects in the DX marketing area, covering healthcare, medical services, and food. The position works from the upstream stage rather than simply implementing a client's initial request: it involves understanding the client's issues and background, deciding what should be built, planning the service, proposing solutions, and following the results after launch.
Responsibilities include interviewing clients and organizing their issues, considering and proposing plans and specifications, coordinating with internal and external engineers and designers, managing schedules and project progress, checking the effectiveness of released services, and proposing improvements. Specialist members handle implementation and design, while the Web Director contributes to overall design and technical decisions from an SE-oriented perspective.
Required experience includes working as a Web Director at an advertising agency, Web production company, or operating company, together with experience in digital planning and production for B2B projects. Experience at a production company is specifically sought. The posting identifies progress management, communication across different professions, and practical scheduling as relevant strengths. Candidates are expected to identify issues and act independently, work with other professions to achieve results as a team, and operate in a fast-moving environment.
The work is connected to the company's nutrition-management app, Oishi Kenko, which proposes meals suited to individual health conditions, and to client projects in the healthcare, medical, and food sectors. The company also develops the Kakaris dietary guidance solution for medical institutions and uses data from its services in client development projects. Examples of prior work include a medication guidance app for Takeda Pharmaceutical, an Ito En vegetable-drink collaboration version of Oishi Kenko, and a recipe API connected to client services.
The wider team includes engineers, designers, and registered dietitians who discuss service improvements together. The company states that it uses remote work and core-time flextime. Online interviews are available. New employees receive onboarding that includes monthly one-on-one lunches with a mentor during their first six months and regular meetings with the CEO.
