Publicis Groupe is the second-largest communications group in the world. Founded in Paris in 1926, we are present in more than 100 countries as leaders in marketing, communication, and digital business transformation.
This role will serve as the primary technical representative for Publicis Sapient in Japan, supporting Nissan’s NJPN teams and acting as the bridge between Nissan Japan’s local priorities and the global PACE platform.
The Technical Liaison will ensure that the Japan market’s business and technical needs are accurately captured, prioritized, and implemented within the PACE framework. The individual must be fluent in both Japanese and English and capable of operating autonomously — not simply as a coordinator, but as a trusted technical decision-maker who can represent Sapient credibly in front of senior Nissan stakeholders.
The successful candidate will not simply relay requirements—they will act as a hands-on, empowered technical decision-maker, ensuring that the PACE platform and its related digital products are effectively implemented and optimized for the Japan market.
This person will also be expected to operate organically with the London-based global platform teams, collaborating daily with the PACE product, architecture, and delivery leadership to ensure seamless integration between Japan’s local delivery and the global platform direction.
The ideal candidate will have an understanding of digital platforms, cloud architectures, and enterprise customer experience systems—particularly Nissan’s global PACE platform, which underpins commerce, content, and connected experiences across markets. This individual must grasp the functional and technical nuances of PACE to drive the implementation of products and solutions critical to Nissan Japan’s business.
They must be fluent in both Japanese and English, able to bridge cultural, linguistic, and organizational gaps between Nissan Japan and Publicis Sapient’s global delivery teams—ensuring Japan’s needs are clearly represented, prioritized, and realized through the PACE platform.
