About the role

Vanta Works is a Music & Audio company founded in 2019 and based in Tokyo, Japan. As an established enterprise of 1,000 to 5,000 employees, we combine the pace, ambition and ownership of a modern business with a genuine commitment to quality, integrity and the people who work here. Vanta Works is a Tokyo-based music & audio firm established in 2019 with a clear mission to redefine its market. The team builds reliable, scalable products that help clients solve everyday operational challenges with confidence. You can learn more about us at https://www.vantaworks.app.

We are looking for a capable Human Resources Executive to join our team, working fully remotely from anywhere in the country. In this role you will be a key member of our Human Resources function, contributing directly to our goals and working closely with talented colleagues across the business.

This is a hands-on role with real ownership and impact. You will apply your skills in Recruitment, Onboarding and HR Operations to solve interesting problems, ship work you can be proud of and help us raise the bar for what we do. You will collaborate with cross-functional teams, share your ideas openly and have the support you need to do your best work and grow along the way.

You will bring around 2 to 4 years of relevant experience and strong, practical knowledge of Recruitment, Onboarding and HR Operations. Just as important are clear communication, sound judgement, attention to detail and the ability to collaborate effectively with people across different teams and backgrounds.

Within your first few months, you will get up to speed with our products, processes and people, build strong working relationships across the team, and begin taking ownership of your own work. Over time, you will have the opportunity to deepen your expertise, take on broader scope and grow your career with us as the company continues to scale.

In return, we offer a supportive, inclusive and collaborative environment, competitive pay, meaningful benefits and the chance to do work that genuinely matters. We care about our people, invest in their growth and want everyone here to be able to do the best work of their careers.

If this sounds like you, we would love to hear from you. Vanta Works is an equal-opportunity employer: we welcome applicants of all backgrounds and are committed to building a diverse team and an inclusive workplace where everyone can thrive. Apply today and tell us why you would be a great fit.

Responsibilities

Working alongside a collaborative, motivated team, your day-to-day duties will include, but are not limited to, the following:
