In celebration of International Women’s Day 2021, we’d like to introduce some of our Inspirational Female Leaders here at JAC Group.

As an industrious and highly motivated leader, she has successfully cultivated a company and culture that values diversity and equal opportunities regardless of age, gender, or sexual orientation.

Currently, across the group, 50% of all staff members and 35% of employees in leadership positions are female. JAC strives to create an environment in which women are actively encouraged to freely pursue their career goals with policies that strongly support work-life balance and opportunities to develop high-level professional expertise.

I view my work not simply as an occupation, it’s a passion that I’m thoroughly devoted to. It’s something that brings me a great deal of joy.”​

​​Akiko Kusama joined as Director of JAC Recruitment Germany in 2019. She is a dedicated leader who believes it is also important to be an active player and contributor to the success of her team. For Akiko,getting to know and understand her team members as individuals has been vital to developing a healthy culture of open and honest communication. She believes that this is particularly important when challenges arise.

During difficult circumstances, like going through lockdown as a result of the pandemic, maintaining strong communication has been especially meaningful. Not only from a professional perspective but also in supporting one another throughout the experience."

Lim Sze Ping joined JAC Recruitment Malaysia in 2002 as a consultant. Since that time, she has personally placed over 700 professional candidates with client companies, becoming the highest achiever in JAC Group. Lim now leads her team as a Director, who actively encourages continuous learning and knowledge-sharing among her team members. She believes that a team that synergistically supports one another, grows together, and shares in their success is key to continued motivation.

I think it’s important to lead by example and with awareness and empathy for the challenges involved in developing new skills. Seeing my team members succeed is my greatest motivation.”​

She joined the company in 2004 and is an exceptionally skilled consultant and leader who has supported over 3000 candidates in their search for new professional opportunities.

Inspired by the strength and leadership of JAC Group Co-Founder, Chairman & CEO, Hiromi Tazaki, Tokiko values open and consistent communication along with a speedy approach to problem-solving.
