Seeking Advice: Breaking into Tokyo’s Finance Job Market as an English Speaker

Hi everyone,

I recently relocated to Tokyo and I’m trying to break into the finance job market here. However, I don’t speak Japanese and will need work-sponsorship for my visa.

​

**Background:**

\- Degree in Applied Economics

\- 8 years of experience in an international finance company

\- Specialties: Portfolio Management, Credit Lending, Risk Management

\- Most recent role: Strategy and Operations Manager

​

I’m targeting companies like J.P. Morgan, Citi, American Express, and HSBC. ***I’m also open to opportunities in tech and consulting companies.***

Does anyone have suggestions on how to navigate the job market in Tokyo given my background and language limitations? Any advice or resources would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you!
