Job Description

■Recruitment Background
The Fast Retailing (hereinafter “FR”) Group is undergoing company-wide transformation to create a “new industry” based on the “LifeWear” concept, which transcends traditional industry boundaries.
We are seeking a Labor Relations Specialist to drive HR governance both domestically and internationally.

■Job Overview
As the FR Group’s Global Headquarters (GHQ), the Japan headquarters is tasked with driving the global business growth of the FR Group and its various brands, which operate approximately 3,600 stores across Asia, Europe, and the Americas.

Initially, you will serve as the labor relations manager for Japan, engaging in the following duties, and we expect you to gradually expand your scope of responsibility to include global matters. Specifically, the following duties are anticipated:
・You will primarily handle labor and employment matters involving employees in Japan.
・In addition to handling individual cases, you will lead the development and operation of monitoring systems to prevent problems before they arise, as well as the implementation of training programs.
