仕事内容Job description ## **"Unleashing the Potential of This Nation Through AI and Humanity."**
Information Strategy Technology breaks through the multi-layered subcontracting structure of the IT industry,
and is a "DX Co-creation Partner" that accompanies major blue-chip companies from the very upstream of their business at "zero distance."
Unlike conventional SI / SES, we centered on our proprietary "0次DX" (Zero-Order DX) and provide a wide range of services on an end-to-end basis,
from top-level consulting to next-generation AI implementation.
In 2024, we listed on the Growth Market of the Tokyo Stock Exchange.
By combining cutting-edge "AI technology," which has won Japan's No. 1 AWS hackathon, with "Humanity," which draws out the tacit knowledge of the field,
we unleash the potential of Japan's leading large corporations at the fastest pace.
People remain the protagonists. We are a group that continues to skillfully wield technology and create value beyond expectations.
## ■Business Overview
As we promote our business, we have seen an increasing number of opportunities where clients consult us on upstream processes such as strategy and planning, and requirements definition, beyond system development.
Projects have already started in which we support strategy formulation, roadmap study, requirements definition, project management, and more, from both the business and IT sides.
Therefore, this time we are recruiting people who can provide accompanying support as part of MGR, our strategy and business consulting team that helps major companies in each industry grow their businesses.
We support solving challenges for major companies and local governments.
Beyond presenting analysis results and proposals, we provide "accompanying" support that keeps implementation and establishment in view.
As the person responsible for project delivery, you will understand clients' business challenges and take charge of proposing optimal strategies and business process improvements, formulating execution plans, and project management.
As a team leader, we also expect you to support your team members' skill development and career development, and to coordinate and liaise with stakeholders both inside and outside the company.
We are seeking motivated individuals who also wish to be involved in building our internal organization and developing new businesses at Information Strategy Technology.

## ■Appeal of This Position
* Beyond client work, you can also be involved in organization development and the launch of our consulting business
→ As the second pillar of our business, we have been launching our consulting business since this fiscal year.
The authority given to each individual is very large.
Not only consulting work but also organizational development of the business is possible,
and because what you do directly affects the success or failure of the business launch, the company has high expectations for this position.
* Flexibility of career paths to match your aspirations
→ At our company, you can aim for either an engineer or consultant career.
Since we design careers to match your own wishes, we review them in 1on1s,
and you can switch careers: those who love making things can move to engineering,
and those who want to be involved from strategy and planning can move to consulting.
There are cases where your thinking changes after actually working on the job, and we have a system in which the company fully supports that.
* Not bound by existing packages, you can truly be involved in business consulting
→ Our company has advocated "0次DX" and has delivered services customized for each client.
Because the company has provided solutions not bound by existing frameworks,
even if you move into the more upstream consulting domain, you can similarly deliver services customized to clients' challenges.
* An environment where you can work hands-on on a wide variety of PJTs
→ We do not divide consultants' PJT assignments by domain or by industry,
and we carry out the work from identifying the challenge itself.
Client challenges are highly diverse, so you can gain experience across a wide variety of PJTs,
and it is an environment where you can hone your skills without limiting yourself to a particular domain.
* Possibility to participate in PJTs of major companies across a wide range of industries
→ Since our founding, we have consistently developed sales channels with major enterprise companies.
By leveraging that network to develop consulting opportunities,
it is possible to win projects from enterprise companies that are among the leaders in Japan.
By working with major clients in the industry, the impact on society is also large,
and after a PJT is completed you can experience a sense of accomplishment and feel a very great sense of fulfillment.
* Working alongside sales from opportunity development through accompanying support (we do not sell packages; we truly accompany clients)
→ Since our founding, we have insisted on direct transactions with major enterprise companies and have developed sales channels.
Beyond the network of our sales team, we develop opportunities together with sales and provide end-to-end support from new project development through actual PJT execution to solution delivery.
* DX promotion support and regional revitalization in collaboration with government agencies
→ One of our executives is involved in regional revitalization as Kitakyushu City's DX Producer.
In Kitakyushu City, we are advancing DX promotion support in collaboration with digital talent and IT companies, building relationship populations, digital talent exchange, human resource development, and promotion of corporate relocation.
You will have opportunities to participate in regional revitalization in collaboration with government agencies, not only with private companies.
応募資格Requirement * 5+ years of experience as a consulting manager
* Experience managing a team of 10 or more members
