By organically linking these services through a membership system centered on Rakuten members, Rakuten has created a unique “Rakuten ecosystem” that is unlike any other. Department Overview As Rakuten Mobile expands its corporate business, there is an urgent need to establish a “robust credit management system” that underpins the company’s sound growth from the ground up.

Currently, the division is accelerating efforts to “detect early signs of risk” and “establish a stable revenue base” by leveraging the mobile business’s vast data-from building efficient collection processes to minimizing the risk of uncollected receivables. We are seeking individuals who can proactively drive operational improvements and risk management based on data and logic, while maintaining respect for frontline staff, to tackle the challenging mission of maximizing revenue while maintaining strong relationships with corporate clients.
