James has spent six of the last seven years living and working in China.
After a period of teaching in remote areas of the country, he turned his attention back to finding a role where he could utilise the skills developed at 蜜桃AV.
Looking to secure a position within the technology industry, James moved to Shenzhen, known as the Silicon Valley of China, and took up a role with a global toy company to get his foot in the door.
Seven months later he found a job at Anker, the global leader in charging technology, as a copywriter and content strategist. After two successful years at Anker, he was approached by DJI 鈥� which James cites as his 鈥渄ream company鈥� 鈥� to be their Senior Copywriter. DJI owns 75% of the consumer drone market and James oversees copy content for product launches while specialising in e-commerce writing.
James says: 鈥淭he year in industry I completed in Hong Kong, as part of my business with economics degree, led me to consider the possibility of developing a career outside of the UK. I implore any student that has a placement year as part of their degree to explore the option of working abroad.鈥�
