Job responsibilities and requirements

The Customer & Market Research Director in Real Estate is primarily responsible for coordinating market research, customer insights, and product strategy development. This role provides key data support for project investment decisions, product positioning, and marketing promotion, directly impacting the project's market competitiveness and return on investment.

Responsibilities

Customer Research 's work spans the entire life cycle of a real estate project, from market research before land acquisition to optimizing customer feedback after product launch. This requires collaboration across multiple departments, including investment, design, marketing, and operations.

1. Market and industry research: grasp industry trends and avoid investment risks

• Coordinate macro-market monitoring: Track national and city real estate policies (such as purchase restrictions, credit, and land auction rules ), economic data (GDP, per capita disposable income, and demographic structure), and industry cycles (supply and demand, inventory turnover cycles). Regularly produce "Industry Trend Reports" and "City Market White Papers" to provide a basis for the company's decision-making on "city entry/exit" and "land acquisition priorities."
• competitive product trends : Organize a team to conduct a comprehensive survey of competitive product projects (on sale/to be sold) in key cities and key sectors, covering product types (unit types, volume ratios, decoration standards), pricing strategies, sales speeds, marketing methods, customer profiles, etc., to form a "Competitive Benchmarking Analysis Report" to clarify the differentiated competitive direction of the own project.
• Land value assessment : Cooperate with the investment department to participate in the land survey before the land auction , analyze the planning (transportation, education, commercial facilities), customer potential, development restrictions (floor area ratio, height limit) of the area where the land is located, calculate the expected return on investment of the land, and output the "Land Feasibility Study Report" to determine whether the land is in line with the company's strategy.

2. Customer Insight and Profile Building: Accurately Identify Target Customers

• In-depth exploration of customer needs: Design and implement multi- dimensional customer surveys (questionnaires, focus group interviews, home visits, big data analysis, etc.), focusing on the core demands of different customer groups (urgent needs, improvement, high-end, investors), such as apartment type preferences (transparent, master bedroom suite), supporting needs (school district, subway), price sensitivity, brand awareness, etc.
• Establishing a customer portrait system: Based on survey data, we construct standardized customer portraits ( including demographic, economic, behavioral, and psychological attributes), such as "urban new middle-class improvement customers" and "high-net-worth high-end vacation customers," and dynamically update the portraits (if policy changes lead to a shift in customer demand ) to ensure that product positioning meets market demand.
• Customer Lifecycle Management: Collaborate with marketing and customer service departments to track the living experience of existing homebuyers (post-delivery satisfaction, property needs, second-time homebuyer/recommendation intention), analyze reasons for customer churn, and produce a Customer Satisfaction Report to feed back into product optimization (such as improving the practicality of apartment types) and service upgrades (such as improving community facilities).

3. Product strategy formulation and implementation: driving the transformation from "customer demand to product implementation"

• Product positioning and planning suggestions: Based on market research and customer insights, provide product positioning suggestions to the design department, such as "This plot mainly features square meters of three-bedroom improved units, with supporting community elderly care service centers." Clarify the core selling points of the product (such as "subway + school district dual facilities") to avoid product homogeneity.
• Optimize product details: Participate in product design reviews (such as floor plans and decoration standards reviews) and provide optimization suggestions from the customer's perspective, such as "optimizing the dry and wet separation design of the master bedroom bathroom" and "increasing storage space in the entrance hall" to ensure that product details meet customer needs; at the same time, track the costs of building materials and floor plans to balance "customer experience" and "project profits."
• Product line standardization: Targeting the company's key cities/customer groups, promote product line standardization (such as "urgent-need product line A" and "improvement product line B"), clarify the core configuration, cost range, and target customer groups of each product line, improve project development efficiency (such as shortening the design cycle), and ensure product quality stability.

4. Data system construction and team management: ensuring efficient customer research

• customer research data system: Build a company-level customer research database, integrate internal and external data (internal: sales data, customer data; external: third-party market data, government planning data), introduce data analysis tools (such as Excel, SPSS, BI system), realize data visualization (such as "sales rate trend chart of each city"), and improve decision-making efficiency.
• Team building and capacity building: Establish a professional customer research team ( including market researchers, customer analysts, and data analysts) and clarify the job responsibilities of team members; formulate training plans (such as "real estate policy interpretation training" and "customer research method training") to enhance the team's data analysis, report writing, and cross-departmental communication capabilities; establish a performance evaluation mechanism (such as "report accuracy" and "support effect on the project") to stimulate team enthusiasm.
• Cross-departmental collaboration: As the person in charge of customer research , he/she coordinates with investment, design, marketing, operations and other departments to promote the implementation of customer research results. For example, he/she provides land analysis data to the investment department, provides customer portraits to the marketing department to support promotion strategies (such as "delivering high-end lifestyle media to improve customer groups"), and resolves cross-departmental demand conflicts (such as balancing "design aesthetics" and "customer practical needs").

5. Strategic support and risk warning: facilitating the company's long-term development

• Strategic support for the company: Based on long-term market trends (such as "aging leading to increased demand for elderly care real estate" and "slowing urbanization rates leading to increased risks in third- and fourth-tier cities"), we provide strategic advice to the company's management, such as "recommending increased layout of improvement projects in first- and second-tier cities" and "cautious entry into third- and fourth-tier cities with high inventory", to help the company avoid market risks.
• Market risk warning: Real-time monitoring of market fluctuations (such as a city's introduction of a policy to tighten purchase restrictions or a surge in regional inventory), rapid output of a Market Risk Warning Report, and proposed countermeasures, such as "adjusting pricing strategies (such as moderate discounts) for projects in this city to accelerate sales" or "suspending land acquisition plans in this region" to ensure the safety of the company's assets.

Job Requirements

The New Yorker Research Director must possess market insight, data expertise, and cross-departmental collaboration capabilities, while also being familiar with the full real estate business chain:

1. Bachelor degree or above, majoring in real estate operation and management, marketing, statistics, economics, etc. is preferred;

2. More than 8 years of experience in the real estate industry, including 3-5 years of experience in US customer research ( including market research and customer insight positions);

research throughout the entire project lifecycle (from land acquisition to post-delivery client operations). Experience with client research for high-end US projects and multi-city projects is preferred.

1. Candidates with experience in managing regional / group-level customer research teams for real estate companies (e.g., leading a team of more than 5 people) will be preferred.

2. Market analysis skills: Ability to independently interpret macroeconomic policies and industry data, identify market trends, and write professional research reports (such as feasibility studies and competitive product analysis reports);

3. Data and Insight Skills: Proficient in using data analysis tools (Excel, SPSS, BI systems), able to extract customer needs from massive amounts of data and build accurate customer profiles;

4. Product Understanding: Familiar with the real estate product design process (e.g., apartment design, supporting facilities planning), able to propose product optimization suggestions from a customer perspective, and balance "demand" and "cost";

5. Policy sensitivity: Real-time tracking of real estate policies (such as credit, land auctions, and purchase restrictions) enables prediction of their impact on the market and customer base.

90% of the world’s trade moves by sea. That’s approximately 11 billion tonnes of goods; or about 1.5 tonnes per person each year. Today almost all the ships serving this US$14 trillion industry burn fuel oil, a dirty, high-carbon, fuel. This is not sustainable. The maritime industry is entering a phase of dislocation. EU and IMO rules are forcing shipowners, traders, operators and supply-chain companies to adopt clean fuels for their vessels. By 2050, the shipping industry will be net-zero. Today, almost none of it is. That means over the next 25 years, the market will need to invest up to US$0 billion per year, every year. To decarbonise our industry will need to build plants, re-engineer ships, develop supply-chains, new infrastructure, and totally re-imagine the services our industry needs. Venture Energy’s mandate is to plug those gaps.

Venture Energy is a leading provider of next generation fuels. We develop plant and infrastructure projects to drive marine decarbonisation across Asia and the world. Our Fuel Division invests in upstream renewable fuel production capacity, offering development, sales, marketing, and logistics services to plant consortia, and a reliable project partner to offtakers, particularly of green methanol and ammonia. Together with our Joint Venture partners we offer clean-fuel export and trading services. Our Power Division develops shore-power, vessel-charging, and battery-swap infrastructure across Greater China and North Asia. Together with our partners, we are developing the world’s largest network of shore-power infrastructure to power the energy transition. We are an international organisation with a proud Chinese heritage; our aim is to be local in both markets, offering our international partners unparalleled visibility of and seamless access to the Chinese market, and our Chinese partners an effortless international reach. We move aggressively, think differently, and deliver effectively, but always hold ourselves to the traditions and standards of Wah Kwong Group, a privately owned shipowner headquartered in Hong Kong.

Wah Kwong Maritime Transport (‘WKMT’) is an integrated maritime services company headquartered in Hong Kong. The Group employs almost four thousand staff and has offices in London, Genoa, Shenzhen, and Weihai. Founded in 1952, WKMT has established an industry leading reputation for technical competence and high-quality services.

WKMT has recently restructured to enable the continuation of its ambitious growth strategy and is actively investing across the maritime industry and adjacent fields. We are a unique Group with a strong Chinese heritage, but a global mindset. From our headquarters in Hong Kong, we operate with a flexible mentality, employing staff from all over the world.

The Challenge | Marine Decarbonisation

90% of the world's trade moves by sea. That's approximately 11 billion tonnes of goods; or about 1.5 tonnes per person each year. Today almost all the ships serving this US$14 trillion industry burn fuel oil, a dirty, high-carbon, fuel. This is not sustainable. The maritime industry is entering a phase of dislocation. EU and IMO rules are forcing shipowners, traders, operators and supply-chain companies to adopt clean fuels for their vessels. By 2050, the shipping industry will be net-zero. Today, almost none of it is. That means over the next 25 years, the market will need to invest up to US$0 billion per year, every year. To decarbonise our industry will need to build plants, re-engineer ships, develop supply-chains, new infrastructure, and totally re-imagine the services our industry needs. There are vast gaps in our supply chain that need to be filled, and quickly. Venture Energy's mandate is to plug those gaps.

The Company | Who we Are

Our Fuel Division invests in upstream renewable fuel production capacity, offering development, sales, marketing, and logistics services to plant consortia, and a reliable project partner to offtakers, particularly of green methanol and ammonia.
