Greeting
Hello.
I am a certified tax accountant, formerly from an international ad agency.
Hello.
In addition to being a certified tax accountant, I have two decades of experience working in the account service division of an international ad agency. As an account director, our mission was to drive communication effort to build the brand, brand engagement, and promote product usage.
For the many international clients, advertising effort, part of the Promotion of the overall marketing strategy(4P: Product/Price/Place/Promotion), is the weapon that helps to expedite business growth which is constantly updated through the extended PDCA cycle of Plan ->Do->Check results/analyze ->Standardize/discover learning ->Act for the next season.
While having an astute sense of the business for domestic clients is critical, having this “winning formula” of driving this extended PDCA cycle for the marketing strategy of the international clients will no doubt be an advantage.
As a certified tax accountant, my focus is to contribute to my client's business mainly through tax, accounting, and financial matters.
I believe I can uniquely add my experience to work with you and support the growth of your business.

Client Recommendation
Yoshitaka Asanuma, Managing Director
Swift Navigation Japan K.K.
“When I was leading the marketing department at a US-based company,
Nakajima-san played a central role as an account service at US- based advertising agency
McCann Erickson, handling numerous projects including TVCM campaigns, national
promotion, and corporate events. He was an excellent and reliable partner.
With his proven track record and trust, when establishing Swift Navigation Japan K.K.,
I entrusted him with all the crucial back-office tasks, including tax, accounting, payroll and bank disbursement services.
Just as during his time at the advertising agency, Nakajima-san has tackled his responsibilities with high commitment with us/client.
He has been especially proficient in explaining the peculiar international tax issues facing foreign-base company to our US headquarter in clear English, at the appropriate timing, and proactively has advanced our operations. As a result, we have been able to solidly establish our business foundation. His insights and dedication have been instrumental in navigating the complexities of international tax law, ensuring that our company remains compliant while optimizing our fiscal strategy.
Nakajima-san's expertise and proactive approach have significantly contributed to our successful establishment and ongoing operations in Japan.”
