A small market perfectly poised for massive growth

Our locations in this region

Our operation in Japan is small but growing fast. We recently dramatically increased the size of our business with the acquisition of Muse, a key antibacterial brand. We concentrate on sales and marketing and we have a small but dedicated team driving this growth from Tokyo.

What do we do?

Japan features prominently on the global agenda for growth. In particular, heavy investment in the key markets of Japan and East Asia is enabling us to grow our portfolio and increase our presence in the country, particularly in terms of our four strongest brands. Our three traditionally strongest brands in Japan are Finish, Clearasil and Veet, and we’re excited by the opportunities presented by the newly-acquired Muse brand. We are also actively working on the qualification of our ‘Global Jewels’ and ‘Future Stars’ brands for rollout in the country in the near future. We offer strong career paths in commercial functions especially in finance, sales and marketing as these form the basis of our business in Japan (we have no local manufacturing facilities). In addition, you’ll find opportunities in key support functions including quality, regulatory, supply services and HR.

What can you expect?

The amount of interest and investment in our Japanese and East Asian markets means that you can expect enhanced career opportunities. Our team is small and almost has the feel of a start-up - albeit one with a long track record of success. Outside work, you’ll find Tokyo to be a truly vibrant city. Japan is highly developed socially, culturally and in business, and the Japanese share our passion for innovation in every area of life - which makes it the perfect place for Reckitt Benckiser professionals to live and work.
