This role serves as a senior individual contributor driving launch and marketing excellence across all three business units in Japan. The role independently leads high-priority, cross-functional initiatives, translates enterprise priorities into practical plans, and delivers measurable outcomes through influence rather than formal authority. For Launch Excellence, the role rigorously assesses launch readiness, identifies risks and opportunities, and mobilizes cross-functional stakeholders to resolve issues and strengthen execution. For Marketing Excellence, the role evaluates organizational and individual capability needs and designs or delivers targeted solutions that strengthen marketers' strategic and executional capabilities. The role also contributes Japan perspectives to Asia Pacific Launch and Marketing Excellence forums, leverages regional resources and best practices, and helps translate relevant regional priorities into local impact. The role has two core areas of responsibility: Launch Excellence and Marketing Excellence. Across both areas, the Senior Manager is expected to independently lead complex initiatives, influence senior stakeholders, and deliver measurable business and organizational outcomes. For Launch Excellence, the role facilitates cross-functional discussions and collaboration throughout launch preparation; assesses launch status using agreed dashboards, milestones, and KPIs, ensuring that risks, gaps, and decisions are clearly surfaced; partners with cross-functional teams to define solutions, clarify ownership, and drive timely resolution of emerging issues; and provides independent, strategic recommendations to brand and business leaders to strengthen launch readiness and execution. The role captures and synthesizes lessons from launches and priority initiatives, translates insights into practical frameworks, tools, and recommendations that can be applied across brands and business units, and creates forums and mechanisms that enable consistent sharing and adoption of relevant launch best practices. For Marketing Excellence, the role independently leads enterprise priorities that strengthen organizational and individual marketing capabilities; diagnoses capability gaps using stakeholder input, business needs, and available data, then designs fit-for-purpose interventions; manages complex workstreams end to end, including strategy, stakeholder alignment, planning, execution, measurement, and continuous improvement; and partners with business-unit leaders, Marketing Directors, cross-functional partners, and regional colleagues to ensure relevance, adoption, and measurable impact. Across both areas, the role proactively identifies unmet needs, emerging risks, and opportunities; develops clear recommendations, challenges assumptions constructively, and converts ambiguity into structured action plans; makes sound decisions within the scope of responsibility, escalates appropriately, and maintains momentum with limited supervision; and demonstrates ownership for outcomes, not only activities, communicating progress, trade-offs, and impact clearly to senior stakeholders.
Head of Relational Marketing Intelligence - Ad & Media Company(A&M)
The Ad & Media Company is positioned as Rakuten Group’s fourth key business pillar and is expected to play an important role in driving the Group’s future growth through the expansion and development of its advertising business. Building on our established businesses -including the internet advertising business “Rakuten Marketing / LinkShare,” the marketing research business “Rakuten Insight,” and the marketing solutions business “Rakuten Data Marketing”- we aim to further leverage advertising opportunities across Rakuten Group’s more than 70 services. Our vision is to create new business models by maximizing the value of Rakuten’s unique assets, including Rakuten members, Rakuten Points, strong brand recognition, and extensive member data, while generating synergies across the Rakuten Ecosystem. Through these strengths, we strive to become an unparalleled marketing partner that delivers unique value to our clients. Through the Rakuten Ecosystem, Rakuten Group has accumulated more than 100 million member IDs and a vast amount of purchasing data. Yet, we believe the full potential of these unparalleled assets has not yet been realized. Our next challenge is to redefine and unlock the value of these powerful assets through advertising, transforming the business into Rakuten Group’s “fourth pillar” and a key driver of future growth. We are looking for leaders who can take the lead in this unprecedented challenge. To achieve this ambition, we need the expertise, extensive industry experience, and strong professional networks of accomplished leaders. We are seeking individuals who are motivated by the opportunity to drive business growth at the forefront of management and make a significant contribution to Rakuten Group’s next stage of growth. You will have the opportunity to build a pioneering business model by leveraging assets unique to Japan - specifically, a user base of over 100 million IDs, extensive purchase data, and advanced AI technology. For those with deep industry knowledge and connections, this role offers the chance to drive the growth of Rakuten’s “fourth pillar” while working closely with senior management. You can elevate your career to the next level in terms of personal aspirations, professional growth stages, and the scale of your impact. As the Head of Relational Marketing Intelligence, you will be responsible for conceptualizing and driving new customer and marketing strategies by connecting client companies' management, business, and marketing challenges with the data, insights, customer touchpoints, and marketing solutions inherent in the Rakuten ecosystem. This role does not begin with questions like “which data should be analyzed?” or “what products should be proposed?” Instead, the starting point is the question: “How should relationships with specific customers be transformed to drive the client's business growth?” You will be required to derive the necessary insights based on this inquiry and translate them into concrete management and marketing actions. Through dialogue with client executives, CMOs, and marketing leaders, you will identify and structure issues related to business strategy, customer composition, CRM, LTV, branding, customer experience, and data utilization, subsequently formulating strategies to enhance customer value over the medium to long term. You will then integrate insights gained from Rakuten Group’s diverse customer touchpoints - including purchasing, payments, loyalty points, finance, telecommunications, and media - to develop a tailored “Relational Marketing” strategy specific to each client. Beyond providing strategic recommendations to individual clients, a key part of your mission will be to systematize the knowledge gained from multiple projects and evolve it into Rakuten’s proprietary “Relational Marketing Intelligence” - developing methodologies, frameworks, solutions, and products. By collaborating across diverse specialized teams - including sales, marketing research, data science, product development, media, and consulting - you will transform Rakuten Group’s “data” into “insights,” and those “insights” into “intelligence,” ultimately driving tangible management and business results for the client. Your responsibilities include identifying and structuring management, business, and marketing challenges for major clients; engaging in strategic dialogue and providing advisory services to executive leadership, CMOs, and marketing heads; formulating medium- to long-term customer strategies centered on increasing Customer Lifetime Value (LTV); designing CRM, customer portfolio, and loyalty strategies; building integrated customer strategies covering the entire lifecycle: acquisition, nurturing, retention, cross-selling, and fostering loyalty; deepening customer understanding by leveraging data, insights, and intelligence from the Rakuten ecosystem; designing customer segmentation, customer value models, and customer journeys; conceptualizing marketing strategies that combine client first-party data with Rakuten assets; building marketing intelligence by integrating data on customer behavior, market trends, brand perception, purchasing patterns, etc.; deriving management and marketing implications from data and insights, and translating them into concrete decisions and actions; designing KPIs that link marketing investments to business outcomes such as sales, profit, LTV, and customer value; planning integrated strategies that combine Rakuten Group’s media, data, commerce, fintech, mobile, and loyalty point services; leading strategic projects that span specialized teams such as sales, data, research, product, and media; planning and proposing large-scale strategic initiatives for key clients; systematizing methodologies, frameworks, and solutions for “Relational Marketing Intelligence”; developing new services and business models based on “Relational Marketing Intelligence”; communicating the concepts and value of “Relational Marketing Intelligence” both internally and externally; and developing the next generation of talent in marketing strategy and intelligence. The organization has 690 employees, an average age in the mid-30s, and a new graduate to mid-career hire ratio of 30% to 70%, as of September 2026. Example backgrounds include experience at a consulting firm, advertising agency, or operating company, and experience leading strategy formulation and project execution aimed at business growth within a corporate management or business planning department.
