RECRUITING

Facing the world’s oceans from Kobe

The Toei Group’s mission is to provide “security” to our customers and keep their “credibility” by protecting the value of their vessels, and the customer’s assets. We will continue to contribute to society as a “behind-the-scenes force”, supporting ocean-going shipping, which accounts for 99.6% of Japan’s trade.

The Toei Group’s strength is making various proposals from a long-term perspective and putting into practice the best choices through careful discussions with our customers, while taking into account the costs from the customers’ perspective. Without a doubt, our strength is largely due to our personnel. We believe that our employees, in particular, are valuable assets, and we continuously create opportunities for all of them to play active roles.

Toei needs a variety of talented personnel. Rather than requiring all employees to have the same skill set, we have continued to grow by developing each person’s “likes” and “strengths”. In the belief that the role of management is to provide an optimal environment which encourages the employees to perform at their best by turning their “likes” into “strengths”, toward that end, we constantly engage in dialogue with each employee to ascertain their “likes” and “strengths” on a daily basis.

If you are a person who would like to strive to take responsibility for the “safety”, “security”, “assets”, and “credibility” of our customers and contribute to society through the ocean-shipping business, while feeling pride and joy in the company and your work, you will definitely thrive and shine at Toei.

Voices of Working Employees

#A company where each and every one of us takes the lead

Our corporate culture allows employees to frankly exchange opinions with each other and with their supervisors and the president. Each employee takes a leading role in the company, as seen in the lunch with the president during the employee’s birthday month, where opinions and chats are exchanged, the employee exchange lunch across departments, and opportunities for even younger employees to present their opinions to the entire company.

#A company where each and every one of us takes the lead

#Trust and teamwork are key to our work

Since our job is to safely operate vessels owned by our customers and maintain their valued assets, many of our employees are sincere and have a strong sense of responsibility in their work.
Since the safe operation of vessels cannot be achieved by a single person, the employees of the Toei Group work as a team by sharing information with each other, while solving problems with the combined strengths of the team.

#Trust and teamwork are key to our work

#A company that cares about its employees

We believe that Toei is a company that responds flexibly according to the situation and truly values its employees. The safety and security of the employees have been protected by the introduction of a defined contribution pension system and the proactive introduction of flexible work systems, such as telecommuting and compensatory leave system. In addition, many employees are raising children and are able to work flexibly based on their family situations.

#A company that cares about its employees

#Global and local at the same time

Toei is a company that can get a global feeling from a local perspective.
I recommend Toei as a workplace for those who wish to proactively engage in communications with people overseas such as in the Philippines. If you are interested in domestic and overseas business trips and overseas secondments, or if you want to work in an office just a 10-minute walk from Sannomiya Station while feeling Kobe’s allure, Toei is the place to be.

#Global and local at the same time

#Realizing self-growth and the growth of the company

Toei is a company that seeks the opinions of its employees.
I recommend Toei to those who want to lead the company so it reflects their own opinions, those who are flexible and open to taking charge of their situation, those who want to be involved in problem-solving with many others, and those who want to see what the future offers.
