Why Ichisou

A small company that ships.

Plan it here, and follow it all the way overseas.

Ichisou handles planning, formulation, manufacturing and export in house. Nothing gets sliced into someone else's department, so the range one person covers is wide and the latitude that comes with it is real.

Speed速さ

"Understand the trend early, and get it to the customer" is the working motto. Japanese-made products go to Taiwan and beyond, and an idea reaches physical form quickly here.

Language語学

Overseas clients and group offices are part of the daily routine. English and Chinese get used as instruments of negotiation, not translation.

Ownership裁量

We have managers in their twenties. Work is handed to whoever puts their hand up, not to whoever has been here longest, and the path to a leadership role is open.

Open Role

One position, three sides.

Marketing & Sales (generalist)

As we take our own brands into markets at home and abroad, this role touches product planning, marketing and sales. You will not be expected to cover all three from day one — start where you are strong and widen from there.
