Why We Hire


The golf industry is seeing renewed interest, with more young people and women participating, plus a boost from post-COVID outdoor leisure trends.

However, it still faces challenges like slow digitalization and labor shortages.

Rakuten GORA aims to solve these issues and revitalize the entire industry.

As Japan's largest golf booking service, "Rakuten GORA" powerfully supports our clients (golf courses, driving ranges, lesson facilities) in their IT and digital transformation.

By helping them boost sales, we aim to make a significant impact on the golf industry.

Our Lesson Service, launched in 2022, is in an exciting growth phase. There's immense satisfaction to be found in expanding contracts, ensuring customer success, and driving service improvements and planning.

What makes this opportunity exciting?

Shape the Future:
The golf industry is evolving, and our business is still growing. You'll play a key role in building its future with us.

Broad Impact:

This role offers significant autonomy, covering everything from new client acquisition to post-sales consulting, service enhancement, and strategic planning.


Clear Growth:
We provide clear paths to management and diverse career opportunities tailored to individual strengths.

Position Details

In this role, you'll engage with external partners to list them on Rakuten GORA. You'll also act as a consultant for existing clients, maximizing lesson service bookings and driving sales growth. No prior golf industry experience is required, we provide comprehensive training.
