Company Overview / Who We Are
■YAMAHA brand presence in more than 180 countries and regions around the world■
Yamaha Motor boasts the world's leading market share and technological capabilities in motorcycles and outboard motors. The YAMAHA brand has established a solid position in the global market. The Company was established in 1955, during the postwar growth period, by spinning off the motorcycle manufacturing division of Nippon Gakki Co., Ltd. (current Yamaha Corporation). For more than 65 years since then, we have supported Japan's manufacturing industry and provided diverse value creation to the world through our products and services.
Our corporate philosophy is "Inspiration Creating Company". With the aim of providing people around the world with new excitement and enriched lifestyles, we are expanding our business in more than 180 countries and regions around the world, and overseas sales account for more than 90% of our total sales. As a global company, we expect our new employees to play an active role overseas in the future.
■Human resources: The driving force of our business■
In February 2022, we formulated the "New Mid-Term Management Plan" for the period from 2022 to 2024. The vitality of our human resources is essential to the growth of our business, and we are putting considerable emphasis not only on our business strategy but also on our human resource strategy. The mid-term management plan includes the introduction of globally common indicators and follow-up measures with the aim of improving employee engagement. In addition to increasing options for diverse work styles, we have also developed an online learning platform. We are increasing opportunities for each employee to grow through working in a way that suits his or her own style.
■Open-minded and Challenge-tolerant: Corporate culture■
For those who are seeking a new job, the corporate culture is probably one of the things you are concerned about. Our corporate culture can be described as "open-minded, respecting autonomy" and "tolerant of new challenges". We started out in the motorcycle business, but have since expanded into outboard motors, automobile engines, industrial robots, and, in recent years, research equipment for the medical field.
Behind the development of a wide variety of products lies a history of each and every employee's continuous challenges to new products with open-minded ideas, which has led to Yamaha Motor's current status. We have an "In-House Entrepreneur Opportunity" program that allows employees to venture their own ideas into business, and an "evolving R&D activity" program that allows employees to devote 5% of their working hours to independent research. We are committed to freely taking on the challenge of creating new value based on our manufacturing technologies. Please join us and experience Yamaha Motor's "ism".
