As we continue to expand our presence in Japan, we are building a hospitality platform designed to scale far beyond traditional hotel operations.\nIn 2026, Wayfarer completed its Series A funding round, led by the Canon Marketing Japan MIRAI Fund. This marks the beginning of our next stage of growth as we accelerate the expansion of our hospitality business, grow our team, and bring our proprietary hotel operations AI platform, Materia Connect , to the wider hospitality industry.\nWhat makes Wayfarer different is that we don't build technology from the sidelines. We operate hotels ourselves.\nOur hotel and technology teams work closely together to identify real operational challenges, build solutions, test them in live properties, and continuously improve them. Through Materia Connect, we connect hotel systems, data, workflows, automation, and AI to make hotel operations simpler, more efficient, and more scalable-while creating a better experience for travelers.\nOur vision is to brighten life for the next generation of everyday travelers . We believe travel should be more than simply having a place to stay. We want to help travelers connect with local communities, discover authentic experiences, and explore more of the real world.\nWayfarer is also a highly international company. Our team represents nearly 40 nationalities, and English is our primary working language. People across hospitality, operations, real estate, product, engineering, finance, and other disciplines work together in a fast-moving and collaborative environment.\nWe are not a traditional hospitality company-and we don't want to become one. We question existing blueprints, move quickly, take ownership, and continuously raise the standard.\nAs Wayfarer enters its next phase of growth in Japan and beyond, we are looking for people who want to build, challenge, and grow with us.\nJoin us as we reimagine how hospitality is operated and experienced.\nWayfarerについて\nWayfarerは、ホテル運営の現場とソフトウェア、データ、AIを組み合わせ、次世代のホスピタリティをつくる、成長中のホスピタリティ・テクノロジー企業です。\n2019年に京都で創業し、現在はWayfarer、Kabin、ORIの3ブランドを展開しながら、日本の主要都市でホテルポートフォリオを拡大しています。私たちが目指しているのは、従来のホテル運営の枠を超え、より大きくスケールできるホスピタリティプラットフォームを構築することです。\n2026年には、キヤノンマーケティングジャパン MIRAI Fundをリード投資家とするSeries Aの資金調達を実施しました。これを新たな成長フェーズのスタートと位置づけ、ホテル事業の拡大、組織体制の強化、そして自社開発のホテル運営AIプラットフォーム Materia Connect のさらなる展開を進めています。\nWayfarerの大きな特徴は、テクノロジーを外側からつくっているのではなく、私たち自身がホテルを運営していることです。\nホテル運営チームとテクノロジーチームが密接に連携し、実際の運営現場で生まれる課題を見つけ、解決策を開発し、実際のホテルで検証しながら継続的に改善しています。Materia Connectを通じて、ホテルシステム、データ、業務フロー、自動化、AIをつなぎ、ホテル運営をよりシンプルに、効率的に、そしてスケーラブルにすることを目指しています。同時に、旅行者にとってより良い体験を提供することも大切にしています。\n私たちのビジョンは、 「次世代の旅をする人々の人生をより明るくすること」 です。\n旅は単に宿泊する場所を提供するだけのものではないと考えています。旅行者が地域のコミュニティとつながり、その土地ならではの体験を発見し、リアルな世界をより深く楽しめるような旅をつくっていきたいと考えています。\nWayfarerは、非常にインターナショナルなチームでもあります。社内の主要なコミュニケーション言語は英語で、ホスピタリティ、オペレーション、不動産、プロダクト、エンジニアリング、ファイナンスなど、さまざまな専門性を持つメンバーが、スピード感のある環境で協力しながら働いています。\n私たちは、従来型のホテル会社ではありません。そして、そうなるつもりもありません。既存のやり方をそのまま受け入れるのではなく、本当にそれが最善なのかを考え、素早く行動し、自ら責任を持ち、常により高い基準を目指しています。\nWayfarerが日本、そしてその先へと次の成長フェーズに進む中で、私たちは一緒に新しいものをつくり、挑戦し、成長していける仲間を探しています。\n私たちと一緒に、ホテル運営と旅の体験そのものを再構築していきませんか。\nAbout the Position\nKABIN is seeking a passionate, hands-on Chef/Manager to lead our food and beverage operations at KRFT and SWRL in Kyoto.\nThis position combines culinary expertise, hospitality leadership and business management.
