Account Director. Asia International is a small Western company with its main office in Nanjing (People’s Republic of China). Due to the fast growth of our company, we constantly have openings for Account Directors in our Nanjing office. Account Directors manage a group of existing clients, being accountable for their businesses and acting as the only point of contact between the client and Asia International. The number of clients managed by a single Account Director varies depending on client’s size and complexity. On average, clients managed by one Account Director represent at least US$2 million/yr. Account Directors are in daily contact with clients via e-mail, fax and phone and also take responsibility for assuring that other company departments do their jobs to meet client needs. Account Directors will also travel on average about once a month, usually to meet with suppliers and to tour factories with visiting clients from overseas. Most trips are within China or to Taiwan and Hong Kong. In addition, during the Asian exhibition fairs season (two weeks in April and two weeks in October), Account Directors are expected to do sales jobs to capture new clients at key Trade Fairs around Asia. The working environment has the characteristics of a start-up, it is very dynamic, young (average employee age is below 30) and highly international, current employees in Nanjing are from Spain, USA, Mexico, and China. Qualifications: Strong career interest in International Business. Very high energy level with outstanding initiative and leadership. Undergraduate degree (in exceptional cases a person enrolled in university but not yet graduated could be considered). Open mind to be able to adapt to an extremely different culture, working with suppliers that have very different business processes and ethical standards. Commitment to be able to stay in China for at least one year. Fully bilingual English/Spanish. No Chinese proficiency is required. Strong communication skills and willingness to adapt interpersonal skills to different cultures. Before deciding this opportunity is a good fit for you, we really encourage you to think thoroughly about it. It is certainly a unique lifetime opportunity, however this type of move is not for everyone. Life in China can be very difficult and frustrating at times, and the compensation is by no means lucrative. It should be very clear in your mind why you want to do this.  If you are interested and you would like more information, please contact Francisco Blanch as soon as possible via e-mail to infoasia@jsmail.com.cn.
