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
The Web Director leads client-facing web development projects in the healthcare, medical care, food, and DX marketing fields. Responsibilities cover client interviews, organizing business and user issues, considering and proposing plans and specifications, coordinating internal and external engineers and designers, schedule and delivery management, and verifying outcomes after release before proposing improvements.
The role participates from the upstream planning stage rather than simply implementing a client request. The director is expected to consider what should be built, not only how it should be built, and to remain involved after launch while checking use and user satisfaction. Implementation and design are handled by specialist team members, but the director also contributes to overall system planning and technical decisions from an SE-oriented perspective.
Applicants should have Web Director experience at an advertising agency, Web production company, or operating company, together with experience in digital planning or production for B2B projects. Experience at a production company is particularly welcomed. Relevant strengths include progress management, communication across professional roles, and practical scheduling. The role also seeks people who can identify issues independently, work with other disciplines to achieve team results, operate in a fast-moving environment, and contribute to a socially oriented business.
The work is connected to Oishi Kenko’s nutrition-management app for patients and everyday users and to client development projects related to healthcare, medical care, and food. Examples of previous projects include a medication-instruction app for Takeda Pharmaceutical, an Ito En collaboration version of the Oishi Kenko service, and provision of a recipe API for client services. The wider product environment includes the Kakaris dietary guidance solution for medical institutions and work combining existing products with generative AI.
The role works with registered dietitians, engineers, and designers. The position is full-time in Tokyo. Remote work is used. Online interviews are available. The company also provides onboarding that includes monthly one-on-one lunches with a mentor during the first six months and regular meetings with the CEO.
The company states that employees use remote work and core-time flextime.
