Shimada House Co., Ltd. (Shibuya-ku, Tokyo, Representative: Kazunari Shimada), a member of Shimada Group, has established and launched a unique recruitment website for its "Hospitality Division," which operates hotel, F&B, rice, and sake businesses. The site focuses on the work styles of individual employees so that job seekers can vividly imagine "themselves working here." The video playing on the top page shows employees working at their respective locations. This is a bartender working at "bar hotel Hakone Koyama." Features of the Hospitality Division's New Recruitment Site Hospitality Message Appears Upon Scrolling ■ Expressing Shimada Group's Vision of Hospitality on the Top Page Shimada Group's vision of hospitality is "consideration" beyond mere service. A strong message, stating that the origin of hospitality lies in the attitude of thinking deeply for oneself—"How can I make customers smile?" "How do I communicate with colleagues?" "What can I do right now?"—is featured on the new site's top page. It conveys the essence of "Shimada-style hospitality," which is born from on-site members having a broad perspective and acting proactively. ■ The Concept is "Jibun Design." – Designing Your Own Life. The division does not have fixed rules. It fosters a culture that respects each employee's strengths and desires. The form of hospitality is something that one creates for "oneself." The process of trial and error and the passion involved lead to personal growth, eventually shaping "oneself" as a person. The phrase "Jibun Design." embodies the desire for individuals to design their own rich lives through work. Scenes of employees working at "SAKE Kura Hotel Kawasaki-juku." ■ Driven by "WANT." Featuring Numerous Candid Interviews. The new site extensively features interview videos and articles with employees active on the front lines at each location. How have they built their unique hospitality? We focused on "candid words" without over-embellishment, incorporating the real appearance of each individual into the design. What they all have in common is that they realize their "WANT" regardless of age or career background. Starting with curiosity and taking a courageous step forward, their enjoyment and enthusiasm spread to those around them. The content allows visitors to feel the unique culture of Shimada Group. Employees who are "multi-skilled (rare talent with multiple roles)" – a keyword for Shimada Group in their work. Hospitality Division Recruitment Site Background of the New Original Recruitment Site for the Division In response to drastic changes in social conditions and the work environment, we re-evaluated "what true value resonates with job seekers now" and "what are Shimada's strengths." What we arrived at is the unique appeal of the division, where employees can continue to grow without getting bored through "creative work." To widely disseminate this unique value to society, we created this recruitment site. The launch of the new site is not only an appeal to external parties but also aims to create positive synergistic effects internally, such as employees stimulating each other's "WANTs" and enhancing individual communication skills. ■ About Shimada Group Shimada Group Co., Ltd. started in 1952 as a single rice shop in Setagaya-ku.
