About

The virtual home for China Flexpats

China Flexpat started in May 2020 as a podcast. It is becoming the career platform for international professionals who want to work in or with China — with the podcast as its content heart.

Mission

Raise the bar for China careers

Our mission is to give Flexpats a platform to share their knowledge and experience of pursuing a career in China — and to show how you can become a well-paid and happy China Flexpat with the right skills and mindset.

Talent and employers struggle to find each other. We solve that discovery problem from both sides: the podcast and learning paths prepare professionals, the community connects them, and the jobs and employer pages bring the opportunities in.

  1. 2020 — the China Flexpat podcast launches with episode #1.
  2. 2021 — Leadership series and the first Portuguese and German specials.
  3. 2023–2026 — past 170 episodes; 10+ community events a year.
  4. Now — the platform: learning paths, jobs, community and employer services.

From the board

Our vision

Placeholder message from the leadership board. Say, in the board's own voice, what Flexpat is for and what it will not become: practical, ambitious, respectful of the Chinese context, and free of both expat-bubble nostalgia and unrealistic hype.

Suggested content: why the community moved from its founder to a board, what the board is accountable for, how members can get involved, and the next phase of the platform.
