Teamfirst

Welcome to TeamFirst — your community and partner for market entry, strategic recruitment, and business growth in Japan. We’re an invite-only community of over 800 bilingual professionals, with 98% fluent in both Japanese and English, and over 50% representing female talent. Our members come from tech, finance, consumer, and public sectors, and are among the most thoughtful, impact-driven professionals shaping Japan’s future. We’ve hosted more than 300 events — from executive dinners to policy roundtables — connecting future leaders with founders, investors, and decision-makers. Beyond recruitment, we offer transition support, coaching, and career tools, helping individuals and companies navigate the Japanese market with clarity and care. So far, we’ve supported over individuals and 30+ organizations across hiring, market-entry, and strategic talent initiatives. We’re also committed to giving back — through 150+ mentorship and volunteering events, we create spaces for personal growth and social impact. If you’re interested in joining or collaborating, we’d love to hear from you. contact@teamfirst.jp https://teamfirst.jp/form_community
