This role is open to newcomers: language is what matters. Native German, native or equivalent English, and Japanese good enough to work with every day.

LOCATION REQUIREMENT
You must already be living in Japan with valid work authorization. We are not sponsoring relocation or visa transfers from overseas for this role. Applications from outside Japan will not be considered.

THE CONTEXT
We work with an international ERP integrator whose Japan business is fully dedicated to Microsoft Dynamics 365. Projects follow two patterns: a rollout at the headquarters of a Japanese group, then to its overseas subsidiaries, or a foreign group rolling out D365 to its Japanese subsidiary. The Tokyo team is hiring about five permanent employees across two profiles: functional consultant and project manager.

TERMS
• Permanent contract (正社員), start as soon as possible
• Around JPY 10M per year for a consultant, around JPY 12M for a project manager, adjusted to the profile
• Tokyo (Minato-ku), two days a week in the office ...

ROLE CONDITIONS
Japan residency required: this role does not include relocation or visa sponsorship. Applications from outside Japan cannot be considered.
Japanese is spoken daily on this role: JLPT N2 or N3 is the level we aim for, not a hard prerequisite. Strong Databricks expertise combined with banking, financial services, insurance or fintech background opens the discussion. What really matters is being able to go and ask the business teams your questions in Japanese once you are settled into the team and working on your own pipelines, so it is everyday speaking comfort rather than a certificate.
Two positions open. Hybrid: at least 2 days a week on site in Tokyo (Minato-ku), 3 or more encouraged.

Our client is building a new digital bank in Tokyo, born from a joint venture between a major Japanese fintech player and a leading banking group. The mission: build embe...
