Our Golf Business, part of the Commerce & Marketing Company (like Rakuten Ichiba/Travel), operates "Rakuten GORA," Japan's largest golf course booking site. Our mission is "A Rakuten ID for every golfer." We're diversifying beyond just bookings, expanding both B2C and B2B services. Our goal is to revitalize the golf industry and grow our business, driven by a diverse team of new and experienced professionals. The Business Innovation Department drives innovation by launching new golf-related services. We've released several groundbreaking services, including golf lesson services, golf course revenue management consulting, and swing analysis apps. We continuously improve and expand our services (growing our client base and service offerings) to meet diverse user needs (e.g., fashion, food, cosmetics) and client demands (e.g., sales growth, promotions, data). In this role, you'll engage with external partners to list them on Rakuten GORA. You'll also act as a consultant for existing clients, maximizing lesson service bookings and driving sales growth. No prior golf industry experience is required, we provide comprehensive training. The golf industry is seeing renewed interest, with more young people and women participating, plus a boost from post-COVID outdoor leisure trends. However, it still faces challenges like slow digitalization and labor shortages. Rakuten GORA aims to solve these issues and revitalize the entire industry. As Japan's largest golf booking service, "Rakuten GORA" powerfully supports our clients (golf courses, driving ranges, lesson facilities) in their IT and digital transformation. By helping them boost sales, we aim to make a significant impact on the golf industry. Our Lesson Service, launched in 2022, is in an exciting growth phase. There's immense satisfaction to be found in expanding contracts, ensuring customer success, and driving service improvements and planning. This role offers significant autonomy, covering everything from new client acquisition to post-sales consulting, service enhancement, and strategic planning. We provide clear paths to management and diverse career opportunities tailored to individual strengths.
