Bilingual Recruitment Consultant — Tokyo Hi-Tech Japan K.K. (Aoyama)
Hiring: Hi-Tech Japan K.K.
About Us
Hi-Tech Japan K.K. has been placing bilingual tech, engineering, finance, and Backoffice
professionals into Japan’s top companies since 2012. Our office language is English, our clients span multinationals and Japanese enterprises, and our team is small, sharp, and international. If you want to build a real career in a foreign-flavoured Tokyo environment — not just work at one — this is that place.
Why This Role Is Different
- Sales background? You’re exactly who we want. Recruitment is consultative sales at its core
— matching talent to opportunity, managing pipelines, closing deals. If you’ve hit targets in B2B,
retail, real estate, insurance, or SaaS sales, you already have 70% of what it takes. We’ll teach
you the rest. - Uncapped incentives on top of base salary. Your effort directly drives your paycheck. Top
performers here comfortably outearn their previous sales roles. - Structured training from day one. No guesswork. You’ll be onboarded with a clear playbook
covering sourcing, candidate assessment, client management, and Japan-market fundamentals —
mentored directly by senior management. - Work in English every day, in the heart of Aoyama. Our office sits between Aoyama-itchome
and Omotesando — one of Tokyo’s most desirable areas for lunch, coffee, and after-work life.
English is the working language internally; you’ll use Japanese with candidates and clients. - See the impact of your work. You’re not a cog. You’ll own your desk, build lasting relationships
with hiring managers, and change candidates’ careers — often in life-changing ways. - International culture, small team, real growth. Direct access to senior management. No
corporate bureaucracy. Learn cross-border recruitment across Japan, India, and the Philippines.
What You’ll Do - Source, screen, and interview bilingual candidates for roles in tech, engineering, finance, and
Backoffice - Build and maintain relationships with hiring managers at client companies
- Manage the full recruitment cycle — from job intake to offer close
- Negotiate offers, and guide candidates through resignation and onboarding
- Grow your own portfolio of repeat clients over time
Who We’re Looking For - Business-level Japanese and English (JLPT N2 minimum, N1 preferred; comfortable in
professional English) - Sales, business development, or client-facing experience — 1 to 5 years ideal (industry not
important; mindset is) - Drive to hit targets and get rewarded for it
- Comfortable in a small-team, direct-communication environment
- Eligible to work in Japan
- Recruitment experience is not required — we prefer to train the right personality
Compensation & Benefits - Competitive base salary (commensurate with experience)
- Uncapped monthly and quarterly incentives on placements
- Social insurance (健康保険・厚生年金・雇用保険・労災)
- Paid annual leave
- Transportation allowance
