I joined HKRI in 2003 as the Sales and Marketing Manager for its flagship project - Dazhongli in Shanghai, PRC. I would say that I have found an ideal working environment where one’s responsibilities are not bounded by his/her position or job role, but by the limit of one’s capabilities.

During the past years, I was also actively involved in the sale of deluxe serviced apartments in Shanghai named Chelsea Residence, the asset management of The Exchange in Tianjin – a mix-use commercial project, and business developments in Yangtze River Delta area of mainland China. The above multi-functional and diversified activities have greatly enhanced my experiences. Then there is more. As a unique career and leadership development opportunity, the company sponsored me to join a “mini EMBA” program offered by a top global business school. Spanning over 6 months, the prestigious program provided an ideal learning ground and opened up valuable networks for my career going forward.

In the big HKRI family, I feel trusted and inspired. It has especially been a great pleasure to work with my peers who always impressed me with their professionalism, knowledge, and expertise.

I first joined the company as a Senior Officer in 2002. During that difficult economic year, I was granted with an opportunity to be involved in a newly acquired trading project in which I gained invaluable experience in Project Planning and Project Management. Challenges and opportunities were always given to me. In these years, I participated not only in the real estate investment analysis, land and property appraisal and asset management in Hong Kong but also in the China projects and other Asia Pacific investment projects.

Such experiences enriched my strategic thinking and broaden my vision especially in analyzing the market and investment opportunities. With the encouraging guidance from my supervisors, the harmonious working atmosphere and the unique life-style company culture, I feel lucky to be a part of the HKRI family.

I joined HKRI in July 2006 and have been involved enormously in Sales & Marketing of our first residential project in Bangkok, The Sukhothai Residences. We have gone through various economic and political obstacles but have finally been proved to be the top project in town.

Though there are bumpy roads along the way at work, I always manage to overcome those problems through the experience and knowledge I have gained during the time with the company, great support from the management and the constructive advice from my colleagues.

It has now been 5 years and HKRI is like a family where I have made many good friends within the wonderful and dynamic working environment. I am proud and thankful everyday for the opportunities I have been offered and will surely be an active member of this innovative team to deliver the best-quality projects to the market.

HKRI is my first employer after having graduated from university. During the first three years working as an Assistant Accountant in HKRI, I have been given chances to work with different operations and departments. Since HKRI has different types of businesses, it enhanced my accounting experience through continuous communication with different operations and analysis of financial reports from different businesses.

For the youngsters born in 1980s or even 1990s, what they want and need is an innovative, challenging and energetic working environment, and that is what I can feel as part of the HKRI family. I am glad that there are plenty of opportunities for learning and growth in my career. I have been given different on–the-job training and support from my team leader, equipping me as a professional accountant during the past four years. I feel honored to start my career path at HKRI.
