• Travel to Japan for 1–2 weeks of initial product and technical training
• Work in-office at least 1–2 days per week (more during onboarding, if needed)

• Strong relationship-building and communication skills
• Very strong attention to detail
• Comfortable handling both external sales and internal administrative tasks
• Ability to travel 10–20%

• Fluency in English required; Japanese language skills not required

Why Join Daiso Fine Chem USA?

• Backed by a stable, established Japanese manufacturer
