Wayfarer is an innovative hotel operations and travel startup in Japan.
Founded in late 2019, we manage over 400 rooms across our three brands:
Wayfarer, Kabin, and ORI.

This means we build products that expand beyond just a place to stay; we connect travelers to the local community so they can discover more authentic experiences and explore IRL.
We also leverage in-house technology that enables digital touchpoints for superior operating efficiencies and a seamless traveler experience, all without forgetting the human touch and interactions that make travel real.
We're not like most companies. We're upstarts. We take the "blueprint" and do it better. We think critically and act quickly. Communication is direct and we move at the pace of change.Our team is diverse with nearly 40 nationalities, and we primarily communicate in English. Our culture is people-first and our organizational structure helps get things done, while still encouraging new ideas and innovation.
We are always looking for bright additions to our team, so join us as we reimagine hospitality for the next generation traveler.
