As good as their products may seem – the Thais like the H6, as it has been outselling the Honda CR-V by nearly double so far in 2022 – the brand has got their work cut out for them in Malaysia, work that needs plenty of new staff.

The Jolion's front fascia is unique with its cascading DRL/indicators

In line with that, GWM's JobStreet page currently has 8 jobs to apply for in almost all areas of the company, including finance, project management, as well as in sales & marketing, each promising a 'very competitive remuneration package and a comprehensive range of benefits'.

It's exciting prospects for Chinese car brands in Malaysia (or even those looking for something else than a Honda or Toyota), as besides GWM, Chery is looking to break into the Malaysian market too.
