The Head of HR, Japan, will have a holistic ownership of HR locally in Japan, focusing on local HR Operations, Talent Development and acting as a business partner to the local business teams. The core focus of the role, especially in the beginning, is strengthening the HR function locally, to ensure the team and our core processes fit to the size and scale we have in Japan today.
Ideally, the candidate would have a strong generalist background, so that they would have experience in multiple areas of HR, but especially HR Operations and Talent Development would be key areas to focus on. From a background perspective, a person who has either led an HR function locally or has worked as a senior HR Business Partner would be an ideal fit. Having a “builder” mindset and taking strong initiative will be key success factors in the role.
