In short

SilkPath is a free, English-language job board and guide for Western professionals who want to work in mainland China, Hong Kong, Taiwan or Macao.

Questions about working in Greater China

Is SilkPath free?

Yes. SilkPath is free for job seekers and you do not need an account. Each ad links to the original offer, so you apply directly with the employer.

Can I work in China without speaking Chinese?

Yes, for many roles: most teaching jobs and many corporate roles at international companies are done in English. On SilkPath, every ad that requires Chinese carries a badge, and the "No Chinese needed" filter hides them.

Do I need a work visa to work in China, Hong Kong or Taiwan?

Yes. In mainland China every job needs a work permit sponsored by the employer, then a Z visa and a residence permit. Hong Kong and Taiwan have their own work visas. Our visa guides for each territory explain the steps with official sources.

Where are the most jobs for Westerners?

In our monthly hiring data, Hong Kong, Taipei and Shanghai have the most live roles open to Western professionals, and teaching and education is the largest sector.

How often are jobs updated?

Every day. New ads are added daily and ads are removed after 30 days, so the list only shows recent openings.
