𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭’𝐬 𝐢𝐭 𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐲 𝐥𝐢𝐤𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐛𝐞 𝐄𝐱𝐞𝐜𝐮𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐃𝐢𝐫𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐨𝐫 𝐨𝐟 𝐒𝐰𝐞𝐝𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐦 𝐓𝐚𝐢𝐩𝐞𝐢❓ As part of our Executive Director recruitment, we asked our current Executive Director Pojanath Chao to share what it's really like to work at SwedCham Taipei. Here are five quick questions (and honest answers!). ☕ 𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐰𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐭𝐲𝐩𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐥 𝐝𝐚𝐲 𝐥𝐨𝐨𝐤 𝐥𝐢𝐤𝐞❓ There isn't one!  One day you'll be meeting CEOs or government representatives.  The next you'll be organising an event, updating the website, visiting a university, planning Sweden Ball with the Sweden Alumni Network in Taiwan, or solving practical challenges.  If you enjoy variety, you'll never be bored. 🌍 𝐖𝐡𝐨 𝐰𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡❓ You'll work with an inspiring mix of Swedish and Taiwan-based companies, entrepreneurs, universities, government agencies, Team Sweden partners, Young Professionals and the wider international business community. It's a role that offers an exceptional professional network. 💡 𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭’𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐛𝐢𝐠𝐠𝐞𝐬𝐭 𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐧𝐠𝐞❓ SwedCham Taipei is a small organisation with big ambitions. You'll wear many hats, juggle different priorities and often find creative solutions. If you enjoy building things and making an impact, this is where you'll thrive. 🇸🇪 𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐡𝐚𝐯𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐞𝐧𝐣𝐨𝐲𝐞𝐝 𝐦𝐨𝐬𝐭 𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐫𝐨𝐥𝐞❓ The trust and the people. While you work under the guidance of the Board, you'll enjoy a high degree of independence and the freedom to take initiative, make decisions and shape the Chamber's activities. There's also plenty of flexibility to manage your own time, something I've really appreciated. But above all, it's the people. Building lasting relationships, connecting members and watching the Swedish business community in Taiwan grow into an even stronger, close-knit network has been the most rewarding part of all. 🚀 𝐖𝐡𝐨 𝐰𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐞𝐧𝐣𝐨𝐲 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐫𝐨𝐥𝐞❓ If you're someone who likes making things happen, you'll probably love it.  You'll need to be comfortable switching between strategy and hands-on work, happy to work independently and not afraid to roll up your sleeves when needed.  Most importantly, you'll genuinely enjoy meeting people and helping others succeed. If that gives you energy, you'll fit right in. If this sounds like you, we'd love to hear from you.
