Job Description

You will lead the entire process—from gathering requirements to delivery—for corporate and organizational customers (such as schools) who have inquired about UNIQLO UNIFORM. Specifically, for projects where an order has been confirmed, you will lead the tasks listed in (2) through (5).
(1) Sales Activities: For customers who contact us expressing interest in a business meeting, you will carefully inquire via email or other means about the background of their request and their specific needs, such as intended use. Based on this, you will propose the best solutions from UNIQLO’s product lineup, including the most suitable items, optimal functional features (such as HEATTECH or BLOCKTECH), and design options (such as logo printing methods).
(2) Order Processing: Once the customer decides to place an order, they will place it via our e-commerce site.
(3) Inventory Verification and Allocation: You will collaborate with multiple internal departments—including those responsible for product planning and inventory control—to secure the inventory required to fulfill the customer’s order.
(4) Customization: We coordinate with partner factories both inside and outside the company to process the customizations requested by the customer (such as logo embroidery or printing).
(5) Management for Delivery and Payment
  • To ensure delivery to the customer by the requested or agreed-upon deadline, you will notify the relevant department personnel regarding shipping and delivery.
  • After delivery, you will handle the entire process, from confirming actual payment to providing post-delivery support.
  • Since you’ll be interacting with customers interested in UNIQLO’s uniforms and customized products, you’ll gain a deep understanding of their needs and, by offering suggestions that exceed their expectations, you’ll be able to directly experience their gratitude.
  • Since this is a company that continues to drive internal change based on customer feedback, you’ll be able to share the feedback you receive through your work not only within your own department but throughout the company, contributing to the creation of even better products and services for our customers.
