Position Summary

We are seeking to hire an experienced public affairs practitioner to join an ambitious and growth-minded team in China. The successful candidate will help steer and grow the company's public affairs practice areas in China.

You should have a proven ability to service client companies on a day-to-day basis as well as a track record of successfully contributing to new business development. You should also have a strong interest in developing a strategic approach to communications, excellent written and verbal communications skills in both Mandarin Chinese and English and an ability to help manage junior team members as a collegiate team player. You should be mature, results-oriented, and prepared to learn and utilise new approaches to communications as part of a leading global communications consultancy business.

The successful candidate will be entering a company that has operated in China for over a decade and that already has a range of globally-leading domestic and multinational clients in the country, including a number of Fortune500 companies. While you will be expected to contribute to new business development, the successful candidate will be able to join a number of exciting and challenging client accounts, serving a range of household corporate names from day one.
