◇About Future Design Lab and Design Futures Collective Future Design Lab is ＊＊＊ Japan’s future－back innovation and transformation practice. We help leaders envision desirable futures, translate them into strategic choices, and move forward through opportunity design, prototyping, venture building, capability development and implementation. Design Futures Collective is our global human network for futures, design, innovation and responsible transformation. It connects practitioners across markets and disciplines to sense change earlier, imagine desirable futures and turn uncertainty into responsible action. As AI accelerates signal scanning, scenario generation and decision support, we believe the distinctive value of futures work lies in human judgment: what deserves attention, whose futures are included, what consequences matter and what responsibilities we are willing to carry. We are now looking for a Tokyo－based Director who can help turn this global collective into a client－facing growth engine: connecting account teams, industry teams and futures practitioners around the world and across our global network to create, shape and deliver high－impact Future ＆ Innovation opportunities. ◇The Opportunity This is a senior, entrepreneurial role for someone who can operate between client growth, strategic innovation, global network orchestration and capability building. Working closely with Future Design Lab leadership, the Director will help scale futures and innovation work across our global network by: ◇Key Responsibilities 1. Global client opportunity creation Build relationships with ＊＊＊ industry and account teams across priority markets. Identify where future－back strategy, innovation design, foresight, speculative design, venture building, AI－enabled transformation or experience innovation can open new client conversations. Shape early opportunity hypotheses around priority sectors, accounts and themes, and help local teams turn informal conversations into qualified pursuits. 2. Pursuit and proposal leadership Lead or support high－potential Future ＆ Innovation pursuits from early shaping through proposal, pitch and contracting. Frame client challenges, define strategic ambition, shape intervention models and craft narratives that connect futures work to executive priorities, transformation agendas and measurable outcomes. Partner with account leaders, industry specialists, designers, technologists, strategists and commercial teams to create differentiated proposals. 3. Cross－border team orchestration Mobilize the right ＊＊＊ capabilities across markets. Build fit－for－purpose teams of futurists, designers, strategists, technologists, industry specialists, sustainability, risk and regulatory experts, venture builders and transformation practitioners. Clarify staffing, roles, working rhythms and handover from pursuit to delivery so global collaboration creates value rather than complexity. 4. Building network capability Collaborate with futures and innovation leaders across our global network to develop a shared operating system for Design Futures Collective, including playbooks, proposal modules, case narratives, account point－of－view templates, signal libraries, workshop formats, capability sessions, learning programs and reusable assets. 5. Market presence and thought leadership Shape Design Futures Collective’s point of view on industry futures, innovation and responsible transformation. Turn signals and project learning into market narratives, executive conversation starters and enablement content, and represent Design Futures Collective in selected client, leadership, network and external forums. 6. Operating rhythm and governance Create visibility across the global opportunity pipeline, active pursuits, reusable assets and priority relationships. Track what is working, where support is needed, which capabilities are in demand and how the network should evolve. ・identifying and developing new opportunities; ・supporting major proposals and pursuits; ・mobilizing cross－border teams; and ・building the methods, assets and rituals that enable futures work to scale. The role is not a traditional business development role, a pure community management role, or a delivery－only consulting role. It requires someone who can see where client demand is emerging, translate ambiguous future agendas into credible opportunity hypotheses, bring the right people together across countries and disciplines, and help global teams move from conversation to proposal to delivery. ◇What Success Looks Like In the first year, success would mean that Design Futures Collective is no longer perceived only as a community of interested practitioners, but as a practical mechanism for creating and delivering cross－border client value. The Director will have helped build a visible pipeline of qualified Future ＆ Innovation opportunities, supported selected priority proposals, activated multiple country teams around shared client agendas, and created reusable assets that reduce friction for future pursuits. More specifically, the role should contribute to a repeatable flow from account insight to opportunity hypothesis, from opportunity hypothesis to proposal, and from proposal to global team formation. It should also strengthen the credibility of Future Design Lab as a Tokyo－based hub for global future－back innovation, while making Design Futures Collective’s distributed expertise easier for ＊＊＊ teams to access and deploy. |

【必須（MUST）】 ◇Required ExperienceWe are looking for a Director－level professional with substantial experience in consulting, design, innovation, business development, client partnership or venture－building environments. The ideal candidate will have led complex pursuits or growth initiatives in a professional services, design firm, innovation firm, creative agency, digital transformation practice or corporate innovation context. Candidates should bring a strong record of identifying client opportunities, shaping executive－level narratives, working with senior stakeholders and mobilizing multidisciplinary teams. Experience in strategic foresight, business design, service design, innovation portfolio design, new business creation, venture building, experience innovation, AI－enabled transformation or future－back strategy would be highly valuable. The role requires comfort in commercial conversations, but the strongest candidates will not be “sales－only” profiles. They should be able to understand the substance of futures and innovation work, ask better strategic questions, recognize strong design and strategy talent, and translate abstract future themes into concrete client propositions. 【歓迎（WANT）】 ◇Desired CapabilitiesThe successful candidate will be able to operate across several modes at once: market sensing, client development, proposal shaping, team orchestration and capability building. They should be comfortable moving from a C－suite conversation to a working session with designers, from an industry trend to a proposal storyline, and from an early signal to a practical account activation plan. They should have strong executive presence, excellent written and verbal communication skills, and the ability to craft compelling narratives in English. Business－level Japanese would be advantageous given the Tokyo base, but the primary working language for the global network will be English. The candidate should also be comfortable working across time zones, cultures and matrixed organizations. ◇Mindset This role requires entrepreneurship without ego. The Director must be able to create momentum in ambiguous environments, but also build shared ownership rather than becoming a bottleneck. They should be curious about emerging change, fluent in both business and imagination, rigorous about follow－through, and generous in how they connect people. The person we are looking for will be energized by questions such as: What futures are our clients preparing for What signals are emerging in one market that may matter globally Which ＊＊＊ capabilities should be connected now How do we turn a futures conversation into a strategic option, an innovation pathway or a transformation agenda And how do we build a global human network that can help clients act responsibly in uncertainty ◇Working Style This is a Tokyo－based role with global reach. The Director will work closely with Future Design Lab leadership in Japan, futures and innovation leadership globally, and a distributed network of ＊＊＊ practitioners across regions. Global travel is expected for selected client pursuits, internal network building, leadership meetings and capability－building activities. The role will require flexibility across time zones and the ability to work in a hybrid mode: sometimes as a senior client－facing growth lead, sometimes as a proposal strategist, sometimes as a network orchestrator, and sometimes as a capability builder behind the scenes. |
