The type of Japanese language jobs you will be able to apply for depends upon your level of Japanese as well as English. You can still find Japanese speaking jobs even if your level of Japanese is only conversational but to stand the best chance you really need to be fluent. There are a number of large Japanese companies and businesses around the world which makes finding Japanese jobs relatively easy. It also provides you with an amazing opportunity to travel and work abroad. Or if you would prefer you can find Japanese speaking jobs within London and the UK as well.
If you already work for a large company then it may be worth enquiring about a transfer which could enable you to speak your Japanese abroad.
There are many other Japanese speaking jobs available including admin, customer services, IT, market research, travel advisors, translators and interpreting. It is therefore important to decide if you want to speak Japanese on a regular every day basis or just occasionally.
If you like the idea of Japanese jobs that allow you to teach English abroad then this can be a fantastic way to immerse yourself in a totally new culture. For this kind of job you will need to have qualifications such as teaching English as a foreign language and may also benefit if you have been degree educated. In some cases you can find Japanese language jobs in which you carry out private tutoring as well as teaching in schools. For those that do not like the idea of working abroad you can find many places within London and the UK where you can teach Japanese instead.
If you do not want to commit to moving away for a long period of time then try finding work on a contract basis which allows you to return home if you find it is not for you. It is important to remember that if you do choose to work abroad you will need to apply for all the necessary work visas and permits to make this legal. In some cases the company you work for will be able to help you with this.
