I’m Mike Michelini, an American business owner that has been operating in China for over 10 years
Our company is Shadstone, an IT marketing agency. Currently, I am an American in China who is in need of a translator. I have a Chinese marketing team and a Chinese wife, but I don't want to bother them with my daily life tasks and admin support. By having someone here to assist me with these daily business and life tasks, I can work with them much more effectively.
I hope this person can be in Asia (HK timezone), but I am also willing to be flexible if the person is able to get the work done effectively.
So that I know you read this job post fully please put szjob in the beginning of your job post application letter, as I will pay close attention to those and prioritize the selection process based on that.
I will give you access to one of our company
