Jacky Jin

We live in a time where information is a quick keystroke away. Against an instant-answer world, Jacky stands proudly as both wonderer and wanderer. 

Born and raised in Shanghai and heavily influenced by his grandfather, Jacky became an engineer, developing a keen interest in both mechanical and electrical systems. His natural curiosity, coupled with a knack for maintaining and repairing equipment, earned him the monicker “Mr. Fix It” from friends and colleagues. 

His thirst for knowledge and inspiration leads him to constantly explore and discover Shanghai in all its history and rich culture. One would often spot him searching for old electronics to tinker with at the city’s many antique stores, or simply enjoying Dim Sum with friends and family at the local restaurants. In both instances, Jacky always immerses himself in the moment, taking it all in. It’s in these slow yet fulfilling moments of discovery that he truly finds what he’s looking for.

Ever the explorer, Jacky found his home at The Peninsula Shanghai, where he has worked for over 15 years. His dedication ensures guests a comfortable and seamless experience. He also guides young engineers, overseeing their progress and sharing his expertise while keeping the hotel’s systems in top condition. At The Peninsula Shanghai, guests can fully enjoy their stay, knowing that a dedicated team is always looking out for them behind the scenes.
