We provide the operational structure, employer support, and institutional framework that international organisations need to run programs and place staff in Japan responsibly.
Who we work with
Universities and placement agencies
You need a reliable host organisation with the legal standing, compliance infrastructure, and operational capacity to run structured programs in Japan. We have been doing this for over a decade.
International companies
You need to employ staff or contractors in Japan without registering your own legal entity. We provide employer of record services — keeping you compliant with Japan’s Labour Standards Act while your team focuses on the work.
Corporate partners and collaborators
You are building something in Japan and need an established local partner with real operating divisions, bilingual capability, and a track record of cross-border execution.
Affiliated ventures
Peace Works operates and supports a group of affiliated ventures across education, media, and professional development. These provide the real working environments within which programs and employment are structured.
- Aoyama Professionals — Internship and training program operations
- Innovators Campus — Entrepreneurship education and venture development
- Refer Japan — Practical guides for living, working, and operating in Japan
- My Nihongo Sensei — Japanese language and cultural education
- Tokyo Traction — Startup and innovation media
Why organisations choose to work with us
- 30+ years operating in Japan — Not a startup. Not an advisory-only firm. A company with operating history, active divisions, and real relationships with Japanese institutions.
- English-first — All engagements are managed in English. Bilingual (English and Japanese) documentation available on request.
- Real operating environments — Our affiliated ventures operate across education, media, and professional development. This is not a paper structure.
- Compliance-aware from day one — We build accountability and governance into every engagement, not as an afterthought.
- One point of contact — You work directly with the team responsible for delivery. No hand-offs to junior staff.
