Department Overview


This department draws up a growth strategy for the research company from a medium- to long-term perspective and redesigns the organization and business.


With an eye on changes in the market environment and advances in technology, we are responsible for everything from conceiving the company's image, main products, and revenue structure three to five years from now to formulating an execution plan.

In addition to simple planning, you will also be responsible for milestone design and breaking down the plan into execution phases, allowing you to experience the joy of "promoting a strategy that doesn't end with drawing a picture." This is a challenging environment that requires both a broad perspective and the ability to provide on-site insight.

Someone who can grasp the interests of various stakeholders and move things forward while appropriately adjusting and involving them
Someone who can flexibly switch perspectives and reconstruct strategies even in a rapidly changing environment

Experience supporting business strategy and mid-term management planning at a strategic consulting firm
