About this role
Rakuten General Insurance is hiring an IT Project Manager for its IT planning department, which drives development projects for the insurer's business systems.

The manager leads development projects for new and existing non-life insurance systems: carrying out projects according to governance and development rules, coordinating schedules with other projects, working with business departments to understand and adjust business requirements and turn them into system specifications, and coordinating cost, schedule and staffing with development vendors. The division has 34 employees plus 50 to 100 partner staff, mostly working in Java with Oracle and MySQL, and COBOL in some core systems; 80 percent joined mid-career and industry newcomers are supported.
Applicants need high communication skill, IT project and project-lifecycle management, team management, and Japanese with fluent conversation. Management of business system projects at financial institutions, legacy system renewal, security knowledge and large-project experience are preferred.
