“I’m fortunate to work in an environment where every day presents a new challenge,” said Michael Hung Nguyen, Deputy CEO of Masan Group, in a recent interview.
Alongside insights into raising capital and attracting long-term investments, he shared compelling stories about Masan’s human resources and its reputation as one of the ‘Best Companies to Work For in Asia.’
Over its 28 years of operation, Masan has established a robust consumer platform with strong brands in the FMCG sector, targeting a domestic market worth nearly US$24 billion.
With a vision to serve eight billion consumers globally and a ‘Go Global’ strategy, Masan anticipates a market value increase of 131 times.
To achieve its goal of showcasing Vietnamese cuisine worldwide, Masan is strategically focused on human resources and attracting global talent.
“As a global consumer and retail company, understanding diverse people and their needs is essential,” Michael Hung Nguyen emphasized.
“One of Masan’s key advantages is its blend of domestic and international talent.
“We aim to Go Global, which is why Masan welcomes foreign talent in various fields, including digital marketing and IT.
“Our workforce embodies an ‘entrepreneurial spirit,’ united by a common mission to serve consumers in Vietnam and beyond.”
This commitment is evident in Masan’s human resources policies, rewards, and benefits, as well as in the recent international accolades it has received.
