Accounting & finance recruitment: Seeing the person behind the numbers
Robert Walters Japan has been listening to the voices of finance professionals and companies for over 20 years, earning trust and recognition in the recruitment industry. Our achievements include being named the Best Large Recruitment Company of the Year and The Specialist Recruitment Company of the Year at the Recruitment Industry Awards in Japan.
All finance people are not the same, and all finance roles are not equal. Finance teams provide the critical thinking at the heart of every business strategy. At Robert Walters, we match qualified accounting and finance professionals to the right opportunity, not just any role. You’ll work with our industry experts, many of whom are ex-finance professionals, to plot the next step that’s right for you. We recruit permanent, contract, and fixed-term roles for a wide variety of firms and organisations – from start-ups to FMCG giants, investment banking, insurance, audit, and advisory.
