About Our Company

William DeLorme

CEO & Co-Founder, Ryze Consulting

Thank you for your interest in Ryze Consulting.

I founded Ryze to meet the market's evolving needs for exceptional service and outstanding results. My career in recruitment has taught me that a company's success is defined by its leadership.

Leadership hiring is more than filling a role; it shapes culture, drives growth, and secures a company’s future. Success isn't built by chance—it's built by people. As a company grows, its leadership needs evolve, making it critical to find the right talent at the right time.

Japan's recruitment landscape is uniquely challenging. To succeed here, foreign-affiliated companies need leaders who combine a global mindset with a deep understanding of the local business environment—leaders with both strategic vision and hands-on capability.

Identifying these top-tier leaders, especially those not actively seeking new roles, requires expertise, deep networks, and a nuanced approach that goes beyond personality fit. That is our purpose at Ryze Consulting.

We are dedicated to the success of our clients and candidates and are committed to being a trusted partner on your journey. We let our results speak for themselves.
