Reason for Hiring

The Fast Retailing Group is currently expanding its business with the goal of becoming the world’s No. 1 apparel company. Against this backdrop, there is an ever-increasing need to design and implement globally competitive human resources systems to ensure that every employee—regardless of their background or area of expertise—can continue to thrive worldwide.
For this position, we are seeking someone who can proactively tackle these challenges, plan and design optimal HR systems not only in Japan but also at a global level, and take the lead in projects to achieve these goals.

Job Description

To achieve the mission described above, you will perform the following duties in the global compensation domain:
(1) Conduct market comparison analyses of compensation systems and compensation levels in each country and identify issues in collaboration with local HR teams
(2) Develop compensation revision proposals for each country in collaboration with local HR teams and management
(3) Identify specific tasks required to implement compensation revisions and develop schedules in collaboration with country HR teams and management
(4) Research the latest compensation systems (such as long-term incentives) and evaluate their implementation

Work Environment

In carrying out HR planning and design, it is essential to make proposals to and collaborate with not only the HR departments in each country but also the management boards of each country’s operations. As the global headquarters, you will lead our subsidiaries in each country worldwide.
Our performance evaluation system requires employees to first set their own goals aligned with team objectives, define challenges in consultation with their supervisors, and ultimately be evaluated on the degree to which those goals are achieved. From this perspective, performing the duties described above requires not only operational expertise but also the ability to grasp the essence of challenges, devise solutions without being constrained by past practices or existing methods, and execute those solutions.
