Stand up and manage relationships with authorized repair centres and service partners across the U.S. and Canada

Monitor dealer performance, conduct regular business reviews, and implement programmes to improve dealer retention and satisfaction

Lead go‑to‑market rollouts for service products (e.g., extended warranty, maintenance plans) in coordination with marketing and sales teams

4. Cross‑Border Coordination & Reporting

Act as the bridge between U.S. after‑sales operations and China HQ on quality, warranty claims, parts supply, and product feedback

Establish reporting cadences and dashboards to track service KPIs (response time, resolution rate, NPS, warranty cost) for leadership visibility

Support localisation of service documentation, SOPs, and training materials for the North American market
