Customer Experience & Creative Operations Assistant

About the Role

We are looking for a highly organised, creative and proactive team member to join our growing company in a dynamic customer experience and operations role.

This is not a traditional desk job. Our work revolves around travel, events, photography, proposal planning and creating unforgettable experiences for clients visiting Japan from around the world.

You will play a key role in helping manage customer communication, operational coordination, scheduling, logistics and overall client experience.

This role is ideal for someone who:

  • Enjoys fast-paced and varied work
  • Communicates naturally with people
  • Enjoys problem solving
  • Loves travel, events and hospitality
  • Is self-managed and adaptable
  • Prefers flexibility over a strict 9–5 office environment

Most work can be done remotely, however occasional in-person operational tasks, meetings, errands and travel may also be required.

Responsibilities

Customer Experience & Communication

  • Responding to customer enquiries via email, WhatsApp and phone calls
  • Assisting clients with planning, logistics and coordination
  • Conducting customer consultations and sales calls
  • Anticipating customer needs and providing thoughtful support
  • Maintaining high-quality communication standards

Operations & Coordination

  • Managing schedules, calendars and operational timelines
  • Coordinating shoots, projects and team logistics
  • Assisting with travel planning, bookings and research
  • Supporting proposal and event coordination
  • Managing administrative tasks, invoices and basic bookkeeping

Creative & Brand Support

  • Scheduling social media posts and assisting with community engagement
  • Supporting brand consistency and visual quality control
  • Updating website and digital media assets
  • Assisting with creative operational tasks and project organisation

General Team Support

  • Purchasing supplies and preparing equipment when required
  • Supporting team operations and workflow management
  • Assisting with miscellaneous operational and organisational tasks

What We’re Looking For

Essential Skills

  • Excellent English communication skills
  • Strong organisational and multitasking abilities
  • Excellent customer service and interpersonal skills
  • Strong time management and accountability
  • Comfortable learning new software and tools
  • Problem-solving mindset with attention to detail
  • Comfortable communicating regularly via messaging, email and calls

Highly Desirable

  • Hospitality, tourism, retail or customer-facing experience
  • Experience managing customers or client relationships
  • Interest in travel, events, photography or creative industries
  • Basic knowledge of social media platforms

Bonus Skills

Higher salary potential

  • Basic photo editing
  • Graphic design
  • Basic video editing
  • Social media content creation
  • Advanced Japanese, Spanish or French language ability

No Japanese language ability is required for this role.

Work Style

This role operates in a flexible and fast-moving environment due to the nature of travel, live events and proposal coordination.

Some days may be busier than others, and schedules can occasionally shift depending on operational requirements. In return, the role offers significant flexibility and remote working opportunities.

This position is best suited for someone who enjoys autonomy, adaptability and varied work rather than a strictly structured office schedule.

Training & Growth

We believe strong soft skills and attitude are more important than having every technical skill from day one.

Training will be provided for operational systems, tools and workflows. We are looking for someone with strong communication skills, initiative and the ability to learn quickly.

You should include in your application an example of a time you provided excellent customer service or handled a difficult situation successfully, whether in a professional or personal setting.

Why Join Us?

  • Opportunity to play a major role in a growing creative business
  • Flexible and mostly remote work environment
  • Opportunities for domestic and international travel
  • Work within the travel, events and creative industries
  • Develop valuable operational, customer service and project management skills
  • Work closely with an experienced and supportive team

Hiring Process

  1. Resume submission + short questionnaire
  2. Short video introduction from selected applicants
  3. Paid online skills assessment and training exercise
  4. Online interview
  5. Paid two-day working trial
  6. Final offer

Successful candidates will begin with a paid 3-month probationary contractor period before transitioning into a formal long-term role.

Who Are We?

We are a creative experience company based in Japan specialising in surprise proposals, photography, travel experiences and unforgettable moments for clients visiting from all over the world.

Our work combines creativity, hospitality, travel, logistics, storytelling and human connection. One day we may be coordinating a sunrise proposal near Mount Fuji, the next we may be helping organise a luxury Tokyo experience or managing operations for multiple shoots across Japan.

We are a small but fast-growing team that values initiative, adaptability, creativity and strong communication. Our environment is collaborative, fast-moving and highly people-focused.

This is not a highly corporate environment with rigid structures and repetitive routines. We care deeply about creating meaningful experiences for clients while building a team culture based on trust, flexibility, curiosity and personal growth.

Many of our team members are passionate about:

  • Travel and exploration
  • Photography and creativity
  • Hospitality and customer experience
  • Events and experiences
  • Entrepreneurship and startup culture
  • Problem solving and continuous learning

We are looking for people who genuinely enjoy helping others, communicating with people from different cultures and being part of a business that creates emotionally meaningful experiences.
