Job Description

■Recruitment Background
Fast Retailing is now aiming for consolidated group sales of ¥5 trillion, then ¥10 trillion. To achieve this, our Supply Chain division is driving an ultimate supply chain transformation—one no company worldwide has yet realized: "producing, transporting, and selling exactly what customers want, when they want it, and in the exact quantities needed."
Achieving this requires improving the P&L from a management perspective, appropriately managing warehouse and distribution costs, and driving industry solutions and evolution through strategic investments.
For this position, we seek a leader candidate who possesses the vision and execution skills to enhance profitability across the entire supply chain from a management perspective. Through building strong partnerships with business partners and introducing cutting-edge technologies, you will help create the future of logistics.

■Department Overview
The Global Logistics Support (PL/KPI Management) Team within the Global Supply Chain Management Department, where you will be assigned, has the mission of achieving efficiency and profit improvement in the logistics domain that supports the sales of the UNIQLO business, which operates 2,519 stores across 24 countries and regions globally (as of the end of August 2025). It plays a crucial role in supporting the growth of the global brand by improving the P&L from a management perspective and optimizing the entire supply chain.
As a direct management team starting from PL, you will pursue both low-cost management and efficiency improvements. You will drive the qualitative evolution that forms the foundation of our "Fourth Founding" initiative, aiming to become the world's most beloved No. 1 brand.

■Job Description
・After joining, you will spend approximately six months gaining operational understanding through OJT at stores, warehouses, and other sites. You will then take on the role of managing logistics cost forecasts and actuals for the store logistics division of UNIQLO Japan, which supports domestic sales of approximately ¥1 trillion.

This position involves leading efforts to achieve targets in collaboration with management and related departments.
・Furthermore, we expect you to drive the further advancement of logistics by building partnerships with external vendors, managing contracts and negotiating unit prices, and introducing cutting-edge technologies, all while working closely with both internal and external management.
• The Job Description may change within the scope of tasks related to each headquarters department due to department transfers or organizational changes.
