KIZUNA Cooperative supports Japanese companies in welcoming, developing and retaining talented people from around the world.
KIZUNA Cooperative is a Japan-based cooperative supporting Japanese companies in their efforts to secure and develop international human resources.
We connect Japanese businesses with motivated people from overseas and provide support throughout the journey—from recruitment and preparation to workplace integration and long-term development.
Our approach goes beyond recruitment. We believe that sustainable human-resource development is built on trust, education, communication and mutual respect.
In Japanese, “Kizuna” represents the bonds that connect people. This principle is at the heart of everything we do.
From identifying suitable candidates to supporting their life and career in Japan, KIZUNA provides coordinated support for both companies and foreign human resources.
We work with overseas partners to identify motivated candidates whose skills, aspirations and personality match the needs of Japanese companies.
Candidates receive Japanese-language and pre-employment preparation designed to help them understand Japanese workplaces and daily life before entering Japan.
KIZUNA supports both companies and workers after arrival, helping create a stable working relationship and smooth integration.
Guidance on everyday life, communication, cultural adaptation and workplace etiquette helps foreign workers build confidence in Japan.
We help companies build systems that enable international employees to develop their skills and contribute to long-term business growth.
Our goal is not simply to place people in jobs, but to build lasting connections between companies, employees and communities.
KIZUNA supports Japanese companies through established foreign-human-resource programs while preparing them for the next generation of human-resource development in Japan.
