A competitive salary and attractive benefits packages are among the rewards being offered to enthusiastic, creative people ready for the challenge of working for one of Hong Kong's most venerable businesses.

A trading company with a history that stretches back more than 150 years both here and in the mainland is keen to hire two senior merchandisers, one specialising in audio-visual products and the other in wellness items.

GTH (HK) Holding is a leading and fast-expanding local buying office of Siemssen & Co, a German trading company which was established on the mainland in 1846.

Both positions at GTH were newly created and were intended to serve as 'a bridge between management and merchandisers', GTH managing director Carsten Thomas said.

'[They will enable] our merchandising manager to delegate some work to the management level below.'

Since both senior merchandisers will be working with the same customers and following their requests, their duties will be similar. Among other obligations, they will be responsible for looking after communications between GTH's head office in Germany and its suppliers.

This means taking responsibility for 'correspondence with suppliers, getting product information, pricing, negotiating with suppliers, looking at the production schedule and project schedule and co-ordinating sample requirements', Mr Thomas said.
