When someone asks me, "What is your greatest strength?" I want to be able to confidently answer, "Communication".

My work

Even though I’m a site supervisor, most of the craftsmen I work with are older than I am. At first, I was a bit hesitant, but I make a point of initiating conversations and sharing a sense of mission to successfully complete each project.
Ever since my boss and senior colleagues told me, "Give it a try your way!" I’ve actively proposed ideas in internal meetings and practiced close communication on-site. As a result, I’ve been able to discover "my own way of working".

The appeal of the job

Actually, my first choice for a career was the electrical field. Simply because it was the field I specialized in during my university years. Although Tokyo Thermal was not the career path I had originally envisioned, I decided to take the plunge. It turned out that electrical work is involved more often than I expected in HVAC and plumbing projects, so the knowledge I gained in college has proven quite useful.
Both electricity and air conditioning are essential infrastructure that help make people's lives more comfortable. Now, I can confidently say that building infrastructure itself is an essential form of "monozukuri" or creating things that are indispensable to society.

My perspective on work

It is perfectly natural not to know everything at work. When I encounter something I don't understand, I try to think, "It's fun because I don't know yet". Of course, I may ask those around me for help. And of course, I know it may take time. However, learning something new and gaining from it is far more beneficial to me than leaving something unknown. We are professionals who build infrastructure through facility construction and are paid by our clients for our work. It is my personal philosophy that professionals should pursue to the fullest extent anything that contributes to their own growth.
