Washoku Agent Inc (株式会社和食エージャント) — we are a privately held staffing and recruiting company operating in the staffing and human resources industry. We were founded in 2019 and are headquartered in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.

We provide career support services for Japanese chefs, including chefs de cuisine and other Japanese culinary professionals, who work overseas, and we also provide information and job listings for individuals currently in Japan who wish to pursue opportunities abroad. We recognize that conditions vary by country and that the actual experience of working overseas can differ from expectations. We listen to each person’s career plans, lifestyle considerations, and family circumstances, and we support information gathering and offer guidance. When needed, we may present opposing viewpoints, but this is done to support the job seeker’s best interests.

We deliver our services by listening to each client’s goals and circumstances, collecting relevant information about overseas opportunities, and sharing information and job postings that are relevant. We provide guidance throughout the process and tailor our approach to the individual’s needs.

Our services include career support for Japanese culinary professionals seeking overseas opportunities and provision of information about opportunities as well as access to job listings.

Our operations are based in Malaysia, with our headquarters in Kuala Lumpur. We operate domestically within Malaysia and focus on supporting overseas career opportunities for Japanese culinary professionals.

We provide information gathering and advice to support job seekers in their overseas career plans, and we may present viewpoints that differ from their own when appropriate, always with the aim of helping individuals make informed decisions.
