Overland Park, United States Jenza Full time

Work in Japan

If you’re looking to live and work somewhere with a culture that’s completely different to you own – but with the security of an English-speaking job – then Japan is the place to do it.

With visa assistance, a 3-4 month ski resort job, and arrival support to sort all your bank account and nerdy tax stuff – JENZA Work Japan is the chance to experience life in one of the most unique places on the planet. Home to avenues of cherry blossom, trains as fast as bullets, and rent-a-cuddle cafés – Japan is where ancient meets futuristic, strange meets beautiful, and no one bothers to bat an eyelid. It’s also one of the safest and friendliest places to live and work.

The job bit

We include an English-speaking 3-4 month ski resort job (Nov/Dec-Feb/Mar) in the powder playgrounds of either Niseko, Rusutsu or Furano. Typical resort jobs include working as a server, front of house, driver, housekeeper, lift attendant and more. Our partners in Tokyo also provide job support for the full 12 months of your visa – so you can head out at any time and take advantage of working for your full visa. Typically, these jobs would be English-speaking roles within the hospitality industry in Tokyo.
 

The money bit

Depending on the role, you'll typically earn between 1,400-2,000 yen an hour. Most of our ski season employers also include free or subsidised staff accommodation, lift passes and lessons - so it’s a great way to stay social, save money, and work on your downhill skills.

The visa bit

To work in Japan, you’ll need to be eligible for a Japan working holiday visa. This allows 18-30 year olds (depending on your nationality) to work for up to 12 months. More confusing than crossing the road at Tokyo’s Shibuya Crossing (Google it), the JENZA Support Squad will guide you through your visa application. Plus, we include useful stuff like Japanese etiquette training in your pre-departure orientation to make sure you’re prepped for any social and workplace differences.

This is a paid program, and will include a job as part of that program.
