Currently, RML has approximately 200 employees, most of whom are Gen Y, which accounts for about 70% and Gen X about 20%. The age range of our employees is different from that of property developers in other segments since the luxury real estate business needs people with sheer expertise and strong experience. We also have a new generation of employees at operational level, which is vital because younger employees are essential workforce that sustains the company to adapt to changes in the digital age, especially in the luxury real estate segment that is currently experiencing workforce shortage.
Since the end of June 2023, all RML employees have moved to OCC. The relocation marks another important step for RML as we are readying ourselves to become no. 1 leader in luxury and ultra-luxury real estate development.
