    CC,

    The position is real, to the best of my knowledge though a couple of people have been interviewed/discussed the requirements with Victoria by phone, it appears the customer need to review their requirements vs vs their offer. One foreigner was too over-qualified for the position, so it actually sounds more like a junior position, which is not how the job description comes across.

    The position:


    1. The employer is a famous international 'luxury' motorcycle brand.
    2. The candidate should be a holder of a motorcycle license in PRC, and have significant large motorcycle riding experience & skill, and the company will look favourably at a current owner of a large displacement motorcycle in PRC.
    3. The candidate should hold a Bachelor degree in Business Administration, Marketing or related degree or equivalent experience.
    4. The position will be based in Shanghai, but will entail 30% travel both domestic and internationally.
    5. The candidate must be able to speak, read & write fluent English and must be native Mandarin speaker.
    6. Initially the company were looking to hire a Chinese (either local or returning), but due to the position requirements this has been opened up to allow for a foreign applicants (with Mandarin language skills) - the caveat to that is the company are not offering a very enticing salary.


    Responsibility includes the implementation of marketing/sales promotions, CRM projects, training programs, & customer events. The candidate will liaise with Asia-Pacific headquarters & other subsidiaries in the preparation & delivery of operational matters including market research, promotions, events & training initiatives. Consistent branding & development of more localised content.

    Other expectations include:
    Team results
    Self development
    QA/QI
    Well developed communication skills
    Design & implementation of various customer loyalty programs.

    CC - I have not received anything from you regarding this post. Also, I have sent you a Private Message before with some information and havent received a response.

    This is a real post as the others have mentioned. Please let me know if you know of anyone who might be suitable. It is more of a junior role considering they are looking for someone with about 5 years of working experience.

    Let me know if you have any other questions.

    Are they aware of the situation here? So do they expect the applicant to be an illegal rider or a billionaire?

    Are you allowed to add you bikes together? With my CJ and my XTR, i ride 1000cc!

    They want someone with a motorcycle license or an interest in motorbikes, not necessary for them to actually OWN a bike.
