Why We Hire
The golf industry faces a challenge: many people perceive golf
as "exclusive" and "difficult to improve at," causing
them to quit before discovering its enjoyment. We are convinced that the key
to breaking down this barrier lies in "lessons."

Currently, Rakuten GORA's lesson and school business goes beyond being a
mere reservation portal, embracing the VISION of "creating a new market
in the golf lesson industry and increasing the number of golfers who enjoy
the sport for life." Leveraging Rakuten's vast user base and data, we
aim to maximize client acquisition, optimally connect users with facilities,
and revitalize the entire industry.

As we enter a phase of service expansion, we are looking for partners to
join us in shaping the future of golf beyond existing frameworks. Won't you
join us in spreading the appeal of golf?
 
You will be able to plan and execute new customer acquisition
models that go beyond the framework of existing portal sites, driving digital
transformation in the golf lesson industry and attracting beginners into the
world of golf.
 
You will be responsible for planning, proposing, and executing initiatives
by leveraging Rakuten GORA's user base, Rakuten Points, and the group's
marketing data as powerful assets.

This is a socially significant role that addresses the challenge of "I
started golf but can't improve and don't know where to go," expanding
golf's reach as a lifelong sport.
 
Position Details
In this position, you will conduct consulting sales for new
member proposals to Rakuten GORA and maximize customer acquisition for
existing member facilities, targeting golf lesson schools and indoor practice
ranges nationwide. Beyond mere sales, you will lead data-driven planning and
marketing initiatives, contributing to the overall expansion of the
service.
