I am in charge of placing specialists to C-level candidates at top direct selling companies. In Japan, the industry, which is worth over US$8 billion, brings opportunities for a generation that demands flexibility in their working style. My expertise is building long-term relationships with clients and candidates. By understanding their exact needs, I can find a perfect match for both.
