We handle products from major domestic select shops and brands, including popular and well-known brands such as nano・universe, URBAN RESEARCH, BEAMS, snidel, and GLOBAL WORK.

Reference:
This is one of the businesses within the Rakuten Group that is expected to achieve the highest growth.
By participating in the expansion phase of Rakuten Group's core business, you will have the opportunity to make a significant impact on the industry and gain attractive growth opportunities.
As this is a period of organizational expansion, there will also be opportunities for career advancement to management positions in the near future.
Additionally, in an organizational culture that values challenges, we encourage actions aimed at achieving the best results through your own creativity and discussions with relevant departments.
By working at Rakuten, which operates Japan's largest fashion e-commerce business, you will be able to develop your skills through contact with many brands (conglomerates, international brands, designers, up-and-coming brands, etc.).
For example, by leveraging Rakuten's assets and collaborating with brands to address their challenges, you can guide them through the process of establishing their presence on the platform.
This involves working with other departments within the company (development, planning, logistics, marketing) to build the business, allowing you to develop and utilize not only sales skills but also planning, strategic thinking, and problem-solving abilities.
In an organizational culture that values challenges, proactive improvements and team discussions are encouraged to achieve the best possible results.
Within this framework, "Rakuten Fashion" is positioned as one of Rakuten Group's core businesses and is currently experiencing high growth rates.
Through your work, you can feel a sense of contribution to the fashion industry and society, and have the opportunity to grow alongside the business expansion.
PositionWhy We Hire
In addition to luxury, designer, international, and cosmetic brands, we are challenging various categories, discovering up-and-coming talented designers through co-sponsorship activities for Fashion Week Tokyo, and brands that have not yet landed in Japan.
Currently, about 7 members are engaged in the newly acquired positions, but we are planning to increase the number to strengthen the scheme to face a wider range of brands.
In the future, in addition to the opportunity to advance your career to a leader position leading a team, there is also the possibility of a career path such as concurrently serving as a merchandiser.
