Senior talent for Chinese OEMs entering and expanding in Australia. Native Mandarin. 30 years in the industry. Every brief personally managed.
Red Lion Consulting was founded by Wen Shan — a native Mandarin speaker who began her career at FAW-Volkswagen in Changchun and spent 30 years building relationships on both sides of the China-Australia automotive story.
Unlike generalist agencies with a 'Chinese desk', every engagement is personally managed by a recruiter who understands Chinese corporate culture from the inside. No handoffs. No junior consultants. Direct access to a specialist who has been in the room — in Changchun, in Shanghai, in Melbourne, and everywhere in between.
We work with Chinese OEMs entering or expanding in Australia — placing the senior leaders who make the difference between a brand that struggles and a brand that thrives.
Senior and executive recruitment across every function Chinese OEMs need as they build their Australian teams. We go where the talent is — headhunting directly, not waiting for applications.
Whether you're a Chinese OEM building your Australian team, or a senior automotive professional ready for your next move — I'd love to connect.
