As the "Voice" of the company, CMO Takanori Tabe pursues how to translate and deliver Japanese value to the world.

Q1: On the front lines of transforming Japanese excellence into global demand

The excitement of working at TAIMATSU lies in taking Japanese value that the world has yet to discover and giving it the significance to compete on a global stage. We don't just deliver Japanese goods as they are; we re-engineer them to become essential choices in global markets. This re-editing of value is the core of TAIMATSU and our most stimulating work. We tackle challenges with no pre-existing answers, defining for ourselves what should be delivered from Japan to markets with different cultures, languages, and values. This process offers a level of freedom and speed you would never find in a large corporation. Creating new distribution channels between Japan and the world, and transforming Japanese value into something the world craves—experiencing that dynamism firsthand is the greatest appeal of working at TAIMATSU.

Q2: Developing the comprehensive skills to drive business beyond job titles

At TAIMATSU, you won't be confined to a single role in marketing or PR. You will be deeply involved in everything required to scale a business: from building the brand's core and market strategy to product development, channel construction, data analysis, and creative direction. What you gain here isn't just a standard skill set, but the overwhelming foundational strength required of someone who builds businesses.

For example:
・The ability to identify essential challenges that no one else has articulated
・The ability to design and shape value that the market demands from scratch
・The execution skills to formulate your own hypotheses and validate them with speed
・The leadership to engage diverse stakeholders and drive projects forward
・The integrated thinking to evaluate revenue, brand, and user experience simultaneously
・Practical experience in communication that transcends borders and cultures
Once acquired, this is a versatile strength that will serve you in any environment. Your experience at TAIMATSU will evolve you into a business professional capable of building businesses from the ground up.

Q3: For those who want to create, not just maintain

TAIMATSU is not a stage for polishing established brands. This is a field for challengers, where we build new, globally competitive Japanese brands from zero. That is why we are looking for people who: enjoy situations without clear answers; can formulate their own questions and take the initiative; are not bound by their area of expertise and will reach for whatever is needed for the business; are genuinely excited about delivering Japanese value to the world; and seek the satisfaction of seeing the world change because of their actions. Because we are still a work in progress, your will and actions will directly shape the future of our brand. I want to build the future of TAIMATSU with colleagues who want to live the life of a creator.
