Blue Whale News, April 1 (Reporter Wang Wanying) Guosheng Securities (002670.SZ) has taken another step in its talent development strategy. Recently, the company issued a market-oriented public recruitment notice, aiming to openly hire two deputy general managers from society to further strengthen its executive team.

According to the recruitment details, the main responsibilities of the two deputy general managers include participating in company management and decision-making, developing and implementing operational plans for their respective areas, and coordinating compliance and risk control for their businesses.

Candidates must have over 10 years of experience in the financial industry and possess management experience in at least one securities-related area such as wealth management, asset management, investment banking, or securities proprietary trading. Additionally, candidates should have served as a deputy in the senior management team of a provincial-level securities firm or a securities company of comparable or larger scale than Guosheng Securities, or have held a middle management position as a principal for at least three years.

Industry sources suggest that the market-based appointment of deputy general managers may be related to the upcoming departure of two senior executives, leading to vacancies at the management level.

According to the executive team listed on the company’s official website, it includes Chairman Liu Chaodong, Party Committee Deputy Secretary Dai Shiming, General Manager Zhao Jingliang, Deputy General Manager and CFO Zhang Changsheng, Deputy General Manager Dong Dong, Deputy General Manager Zhu Yu, Compliance Director and Chief Risk Officer Tang Wenfeng, Board Secretary Liu Gongyin, and Chief Information Officer Lu Xiuran. Liu Chaodong previously served as Chairman of Guosheng Financial Holdings; Zhao Jingliang was formerly Deputy General Manager at Caida Securities and joined Guosheng through a public recruitment process.

Overall, Guosheng Securities’ move aims to fill the deputy general manager vacancies while also focusing on core business areas such as wealth management, asset management, investment banking, and proprietary trading. This aligns with the systemic reforms the company has been actively pursuing in recent years.

In addition, the company plans to publicly recruit a deputy general manager for its Investment Management Department. Responsibilities include overseeing the management of the department’s sales and trading unit, assisting the department head in focusing on bond sales, achieving sales targets, formulating and implementing management policies and workflows, supervising their execution, and ensuring compliance and efficiency in sales and trading operations.

In early 2024, Guosheng Financial Holdings merged with its wholly owned subsidiary, Guosheng Securities. This merger was approved by the China Securities Regulatory Commission in February 2025. In October 2025, Guosheng Financial Holdings officially changed its name to Guosheng Securities, and the company completed a reorganization of the board and senior management team.

Since restructuring its equity and organizational framework, Guosheng Securities has been accelerating talent system upgrades. According to incomplete statistics, since 2024, the company has launched multiple rounds and levels of socialized public recruitment.

For example, in 2024, Guosheng Securities publicly recruited the general manager of its subsidiary Guosheng Futures, its Chief Information Officer, and the general manager of its subsidiary Guosheng Hongyuan.

In 2025, the company publicly recruited the general manager and deputy general manager of its subsidiary Guosheng Asset Management, the deputy general manager of Guosheng Futures, the company’s general manager, as well as the general manager of the Investment Management Headquarters, the deputy general manager of the Investment Banking Headquarters, and the general manager of the Fixed Income Financing Department. In May of the same year, it also publicly recruited the head of its Shaanxi branch.

Since 2026, talent recruitment efforts have remained intense. In early March, Guosheng Securities publicly recruited its subsidiary Guosheng Futures’ Chief Risk Officer, and this time, it is also recruiting two deputy general managers from society.

According to earnings forecasts, for 2025, Guosheng Securities’ net profit attributable to shareholders is expected to be between 210 million and 280 million yuan, representing a year-on-year increase of 25.44% to 67.25%. Its net profit after deducting non-recurring items is expected to be between 206 million and 276 million yuan, up 33.66% to 78.99% year-on-year. The company stated that the profit growth is mainly driven by active trading in capital markets and increased revenues from core businesses such as securities brokerage, investment banking, and futures brokerage.
