Adecco, a brand of workforce solutions of Adecco Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director and President: Kenji Hirano), the Japanese subsidiary of Adecco Group, a global leader in human resource services, has opened the "Hakata BPO Center" (Location: 9-12 Shimokawabata-machi, Hakata-ku, Fukuoka City), its first outsourcing business base in Fukuoka Prefecture. Through the operation of the Hakata BPO Center, Adecco will promote job creation and expansion of employment opportunities in Fukuoka Prefecture, and support companies in solving their challenges.
Adecco has handled numerous outsourcing projects for private companies, including many large-scale projects, and operates BPO centers in other prefectures, including Tokyo and Osaka. Adecco positions Fukuoka Prefecture as one of its important markets, and the opening of this BPO center is part of its efforts to strengthen its business in the prefecture.
In Fukuoka Prefecture, the effective job opening ratio for "clerical occupations" is 0.4 times (January 2026) (*1), indicating a shortage of job openings for job seekers who desire clerical work. On the other hand, many companies face a significant challenge in business operations due to labor shortages, and effective solutions to support sustainable growth are required. Through the opening of the Hakata BPO Center, Adecco will work to create employment and expand job opportunities in the prefecture, and support companies in Fukuoka Prefecture and elsewhere in promoting DX, focusing on core operations, improving productivity, and reducing selling, general and administrative expenses and other costs.
Akinori Hisada, Executive Officer and General Manager of the Enterprise Outsourcing Business Division at Adecco Co., Ltd., commented on the opening of the Hakata BPO Center as follows: "We are very pleased to have opened our first outsourcing business base in Fukuoka Prefecture, one of our important markets. We have positioned outsourcing as one of our core businesses and have accumulated many achievements both domestically and internationally. Through the opening of this Hakata BPO Center, we will leverage our years of experience and knowledge in BPR and BPO services to help companies streamline operations, reduce costs, and concentrate management resources on core operations. We will also contribute to job creation in the prefecture by providing employment opportunities to job seekers in Fukuoka Prefecture who wish to work in clerical positions."
Adecco's vision is "Your individuality, a proud tomorrow." We are committed to supporting the career development of all working people and optimizing various business operations and improving business performance for companies by innovating all services. We will continue to contribute to the career formation of working people and the resolution of corporate challenges through various measures.
