■Recruitment Background
The Fast Retailing Group is driving company-wide transformation to create a “new industry” based on the “LifeWear” concept, which transcends the traditional boundaries of the apparel industry.
To promote the UNIQLO brand and products—born from the “LifeWear” philosophy—you will be responsible for planning and executing communication strategies from the ground up, both nationwide and in specific regions. We are actively seeking candidates who can go beyond the confines of the marketing department, collaborate with other departments, and lead the development of compelling communication strategies and store layouts that resonate with our customers.

■ Department Overview
The Marketing Department’s mission is to accurately convey the “value” of our brands and products to customers. We are strengthening our capabilities to deepen this understanding and further shift the focus of product development toward a market-in approach.
The department consists of the Global Marketing Division—whose primary mission, as the global headquarters, is to provide appropriate direction based on the medium- to long-term strategies of each country—and the Japan Marketing Division, which formulates communication strategies for the domestic market and oversees their execution in collaboration with other specialized media teams within the Marketing Department, as well as stores and related departments.

■Job Description
As the central hub of the Japan Marketing Department, you will analyze customer needs, identify new business opportunities, and formulate strategies. You will be responsible for communications regarding the value we provide—ranging from products and services to new store openings and various corporate activities that contribute to peace and stability in local communities—while building an annual plan that takes into account not only UNIQLO’s unique events, such as the Thanksgiving Sale, but also seasonal events, annual celebrations, and product launches throughout the year.
・Develop and execute communication strategies based on the above.
・Implement initiatives that contribute to daily business performance.
・Collaborate with internal and external creatives to develop communication strategies and creative content across a wide range of media and channels, including TV commercials, digital promotions, radio, newspaper ads, transit ads, in-store promotional materials, and events.

*The Job Description is subject to change within the scope of duties related to each department of the headquarters due to department transfers or organizational changes.

■ Career Path
・As a domestic product marketing specialist, you will begin by leading marketing communications that clearly convey the value of brands and products to customers by category. You are expected to broaden your experience through various projects while collaborating with related departments.

・Since UNIQLO Japan also serves as the global headquarters, we expect you to continuously hone your language skills. Based on that, the following career paths are possible:

- Taking on a management role within the Japan marketing organization (promotion to team leader or department manager)
- Rotation to global marketing or creative roles (leveraging your experience in Japan to broaden your expertise on a global scale)
- Overseas assignment as a marketing manager in various countries (we have a track record of such assignments)

You will be able to directly contribute to UNIQLO’s branding and sales through branding and promotional activities related to products, services, seasonal events, new store openings, and corporate initiatives. We encourage you to think outside the box and take on new challenges.
