Job Description: Business Overview Ad & Media Company provides advertising and marketing services, including digital advertising, research, and influencer business. Its appeal lies in its ability to offer end-to-end solutions for all aspects of marketing, from upstream strategy formulation to downstream execution such as ad operations, performance measurement, and data analysis. Marketing-related businesses include "Rakuten Marketing / LinkShare," which provides general digital marketing solutions, "Rakuten Data Marketing," which offers marketing solutions utilizing Rakuten's big data, and "Rakuten Insight," which provides marketing research services, among other wide-ranging marketing businesses. This environment allows you to place yourself in an organization that forms the core of Rakuten Group, leading to your personal growth and career advancement. Department Overview In an era characterized by the increasing diversification of lifestyles and values, the challenges in marketing research are becoming ever more sophisticated and complex. To address these shifts and derive deeper, more fundamental insights, our mission is to provide new value across the entire customer marketing process by leveraging over 100 million big data points connected by Rakuten Group's common ID through composite utilization. Within the Rakuten Group, expectations are growing for new data businesses that capitalize on our unique and vast data assets. In December 2024, we executed an organizational restructuring, integrating Rakuten Insight, Inc., Rakuten Insight Global, Inc., and the Cho-Mini Job business. This move established a stronger synergy creation system for data utilization. Under this new structure, we aim to further accelerate the application of AI technology. Our goal is to achieve automation and sophistication in data analysis, enable real-time insights, and enhance the quality of decision-making support. Through these efforts, we strive to create new value that innovates corporate marketing activities.

To maintain the efficiency of our business processes, we are committed to challenges in productivity improvement through automation and the creation of smarter and simpler outputs.
