Message from the hiring manager

Since our founding in 1899, we have become a manufacturer supported by many customers, holding the No. 1 sales position in over-the-counter (OTC) eye drops *1 and the No. 1 sales position in basic cosmetics *2. Behind our continued growth lies our history of always going beyond the boundaries of existing businesses to address health, even as a pharmaceutical company, in areas such as skincare, Regenerative medicine, and food and Agribusiness, and the challenging corporate culture that supports this.
Up until now, you've probably had various opportunities to interact with Rohto Pharmaceutical through our products and the information we share. However, we believe there's still much more we haven't been able to tell you.

This time, along with the start of our recruitment activities for new graduates expected to graduate in 2025, we have completely revamped our recruitment website.
Up until now, we have delivered products that are familiar to people's lives, such as the "V Rohto" eye drop series and the "Hada Labo" and "MELANO CC" skincare products, but none of them were big brands from the start. Each and every employee has thought about the problems our customers have, taken a step forward despite their worries and doubts, and continued to challenge themselves, thereby proposing new forms of healthcare. The feeling of taking a step forward on one's own two feet towards the future we want to realize, the doubts and struggles that come along, and the growth gained through those challenges are all aspects of our company culture that we want to continue to cherish.
With the desire to be a place where we respect the new steps taken by those who will become our colleagues, grow together, and create a well-being society, we have adopted a new recruitment concept: "One day, this will become a step that you and Rohto can be proud of."​

We hope that you will learn about the various "steps" that are being taken within the company every day, and that through recruitment activities such as information sessions, job seekers will think about and talk about the challenges they would like to take on at Rohto Pharmaceutical, and that you will become colleagues who will work together to build the future society.

*1: Intage SRI+ eye drops, estimated sales volume from April 2022 to March 2023.
*2: Intage SRI+ Cosmetics Total (5 categories) Estimated sales volume from April 2022 to March 2023
