Job Description:

Department Overview

Hospitality Promotion Group at Rakuten Group is a key part of our B2B marketing strategy. Our mission is to strengthen relationships with key clients, maximize business contributions, and drive various VIP events within the group.

We are currently seeking a VIP Events Specialist for a crucial role that leverages Rakuten Group's diverse sports and entertainment assets to foster special relationships with key clients through exclusive VIP events.

In this position, you will work closely with Rakuten Group executives and their secretaries, managing all aspects of guest relations for a wide range of VIP events. This includes top-tier sports events like Rakuten Golden Eagles and Vissel Kobe matches, as well as cutting-edge AI and technology-focused events that span Rakuten Group's diverse business domains. You will also have the unique opportunity to collaborate with stakeholders to create hospitality areas that reflect Rakuten's latest brand concepts – an experience rarely found elsewhere.

From the initial planning stages of an event, you will develop guest invitation schedules, execute tasks accordingly, and oversee VIP guest reception on the day of the event. This end-to-end responsibility will allow you to hone essential career-building skills such as coordination and negotiation with internal and external stakeholders, and project management.

- Communicating with executive assistants from various companies, including the President's Office, and with internal and external stakeholders.

- Directing external vendors.

- Salesforce operation (used as a tool for a series of invitation tasks, including confirming invitation intent, creating invitation/information email distribution lists, managing attendance responses, and tracking on-site attendance records on the day of the event).

- On-site event operation on the day of the event.

Work Environment

- On-site work on Saturdays and Sundays for event day operations (3-4 times a year).

- Generally, four days a week in the office.

- High communication and negotiation skills, including meticulous interaction with VIPs, executives, and secretaries.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
