Job Description

■Recruitment Background
Having achieved 3 trillion yen in revenue, we view this moment as our “Fourth Founding” and aim to reach 10 trillion yen in revenue, becoming the brand most loved by customers worldwide and the company most needed by society.
To achieve this, we must continue to create new business models and ways of working. However, to drive these new challenges globally, it is essential to have a comprehensive and cost-effective insurance strategy that promptly addresses contemporary risks such as cybersecurity and natural disasters.
We are seeking a candidate who, in the role of Global Head, can lead the Fast Retailing Group’s apparel business—from planning the optimal insurance strategy for all processes and employees to actual negotiations, management, and handling individual cases.

■ Department Overview
The Corporate Services Department, to which you will be assigned, is undergoing bold transformations under a new management structure starting in 2025.Together with the 110,000 employees working at stores and headquarters of all Fast Retailing Group brands worldwide, we aim to realize the vision of “the world’s best workplace and the world’s best employees.” To this end, we are implementing various initiatives to support employees’ work and personal lives at the world’s highest standards. Our goal is to become a company respected by society as a workplace where employees take great pride and experience high satisfaction, where we achieve high profitability and generous profit sharing, and where the most talented individuals are rewarded with lifetime employment.
Focusing on fostering corporate culture, building the workplace environment, health and safety, and supporting employees’ personal lives, team members take on multiple themes and, as project leaders, drive initiatives from planning through to the delivery of results.

■Job Description
This position is responsible for the strategic management of property and casualty insurance across the entire group, supporting the growth of a company aiming for 10 trillion yen in revenue.
You will accurately identify and assess risks associated with our global business operations and promote the preservation of corporate value and the advancement of risk management through the design and operation of optimal insurance programs.
In addition, you will be involved in planning and promoting employee benefit programs that support employees’ peace of mind and job satisfaction, contributing to improved employee satisfaction through program design and operation.
Specifically, you will be responsible for the following three areas:
(1) Planning and Operation of the Global Property and Casualty Insurance Program
To appropriately manage risks associated with the Group’s business activities, you will design, update, and manage general insurance programs. Through global claims support and the visualization and analysis of coverage status, you will work to safeguard corporate assets and advance risk management.
(2) Planning and Promotion of Employee Benefits Programs
You will be responsible for the design, implementation, and operation of employee benefit programs (such as health insurance and life support measures) that support employee peace of mind and job satisfaction, thereby contributing to improved employee satisfaction.
(3) Operational Support within the Corporate Services Department
Beyond the areas of insurance and employee benefits, you will flexibly engage in the wide range of operations handled by the Corporate Services Department, contributing to the advancement of the department’s overall operations.
