CASE STUDY
Management Trainee Programme
Natalie Kwok, our Senior Leasing Manager, started her career with SHKP as a graduate MT
over a decade ago. Her road to success exemplifies the Group’s relentless commitment and
efforts in recruiting, developing and retaining talent.
The MT programme helped me gain a better
understanding of the Group’s long-standing belief,
Building Homes with Heart, the core values of
Speed, Quality and Efficiency, and how the Group
has turned its words into actions.
Senior Leasing Manager Natalie Kwok
Aspiring to work for a reputable and socially responsible company, Natalie believes that
SHKP matches her career goal even though she has limited knowledge about the property
business as a fresh graduate. The MT Programme provided Natalie with meaningful
work experiences and opportunities for personal growth. The trainings effectively helped
her build professional skills and technical knowledge in property leasing. Working at a
multi-faceted business such as SHKP also provided her with the chance to collaborate with
different departments, work with a diverse group of highly skilled colleagues and foster a
supportive professional network. Natalie found her experiences as an SHKP MT instrumental
to helping her successfully lead challenging, large-scale projects, such as the marketing
campaign for the International Commerce Centre. In fact, every project has its uniqueness
that enables Natalie to challenge herself every day and excel. This helps prepare her to
become a well-rounded manager.
Every year, the Group solicits suggestions from existing MTs to address the question ‘What
can we do to attract the best and the brightest graduates?’ Because of this, the Group’s MT
programme has been continually improving its appeal to prospective talent and helping
potential applicants grapple with information to align what they are interested in with what
we are looking for.
