Web Director

This is a full-time, mid-career Web Director role based in Tokyo. The position leads client-facing development projects in the healthcare, medical, food, and DX marketing areas. The company operates the Oishii Kenko nutrition-management and meal-planning app, the Kakaris dietary guidance solution for medical institutions, and related services for health insurance organizations and corporate partners.

The Web Director works from the upstream stage of a project rather than simply converting a client request into a deliverable. Responsibilities include interviewing clients, organizing their issues and requirements, considering and proposing the project concept and specifications, coordinating internal and external engineers and designers, managing schedules and progress, verifying results after release, and proposing improvements. Engineers and designers handle implementation and design, while the Web Director contributes to overall design and technical decisions from an SE-oriented perspective.

The posting particularly seeks candidates with Web Director experience at a production company. Required experience includes Web Director work at an advertising agency, Web production company, or operating company, as well as experience planning and producing digital projects for B2B clients. The desired working style is proactive problem-finding, collaboration with multiple professions, the ability to deliver in a fast-moving environment, and interest in work connected to a socially relevant business.

The company’s product context includes generative AI, an AI meal-planning and nutrition-management service, and a recipe API provided for integration with client services. No programming language or framework is specified as a candidate requirement. Examples of client development projects include a medicine-guidance app for Takeda Pharmaceutical and an Ito En collaboration version of Oishii Kenko.

The posting states that remote work and core-time flextime are available. Online interviews are also accepted. The company has approximately 45 members, and the role is presented as part of its expansion of client development work.
