Job Description:
Department Overview
Our department is in charge of new business development within the Commerce & Marketing Company, and we are developing business in the overall healthcare field. As a platform provider of healthcare-related services, we aim not only to maximize our own services with a sense of speed, but also to expand the Rakuten ecosystem by combining the healthcare data accumulated by our services with over 70 Rakuten Group services and assets (Rakuten Ichiba, Rakuten Life Insurance, Rakuten Mobile, etc.).
In addition, we are expanding our services by negotiating and collaborating with various counterparties such as external business companies, local governments, hospitals, clinics, and pharmacies.
The “Yoyakusuri” service promotes digital transformation of dispensing operations by providing online medication guidance functions in addition to advance prescription sending and payment functions for dispensing pharmacies nationwide. In the healthcare business, the company operates dispensing pharmacies within its own organization, and while striving to improve operations and the patient experience, it is also using this knowledge to improve the “Yoyakusuri” system and sharing it with affiliated pharmacies, thereby promoting improvements across the industry.
