Job description

You’re the kind of person who looks at the way technology is reshaping our world and thinks, “I want to be part of that.” Complex problems excite you. Being in the middle of fast-moving conversations, influencing outcomes, and helping clients navigate their next big challenge gives you energy.

You thrive when you’re surrounded by sharp, curious teammates—people who push your thinking, value collaboration, and aren’t afraid to question the status quo. You’re fascinated by how emerging technologies like GenAI, FinTech innovation, blockchain applications, and Greentech breakthroughs can redefine industries and open doors to new possibilities. And you want to be right where those shifts are happening.

We’re looking for individuals who bring that same spark—high-energy, intelligent, ambitious talents who see themselves growing into trusted communication consultants and future leaders. People who bring fresh ideas, a sense of humor, and an open mind. People who enjoy working across teams, across markets, and across perspectives.

If this sounds like a story you want to be part of, keep reading.

The Plot Thickens: Job Description – Account Executive

• Integrated Marketing Communications (IMC): Contribute to big-picture thinking and how ideas come to life across paid, owned, and earned channels—ensuring every touchpoint works together to move audiences.

• Media Relations: Craft sharp pitching strategies, uncover compelling story angles, and build relationships with media that matter. Competently develop executive briefing materials, orchestrating media moments that make impact.

• Content Creation: Bring stories to life with accuracy, consistency, and flair. Develop key materials—press releases, Q&As, bylines— in line with client narratives and messaging in both English and Chinese.

• Market Intelligence & Reporting: Turn data into meaning. Pull together reports, track performance against goals, and deliver insights that help clients see what’s working—and what’s next.

• Client Relations: Own specific project components, holding yourself accountable to team and clients, updating on progress and being a proactive partner to all stakeholders.

• Account Management: Keep the engine running. Support on day-to-day activities with precision, working closely with senior leaders to ensure seamless execution.

• New Business: Help fuel growth by contributing to RFPs, shaping pitch narratives, and supporting new business conversations that open doors.

• Mentorship & Training: Guide interns and other junior teammates with thoughtful feedback, coaching both hard and soft skills so they can grow into the next generation of agency talent.

Attributes of the Protagonist (That’s You)

• Naturally curious — drawn to how tech, culture, and communications intersect.

• A minimum of 2 years of hands-on experience in PR, including media relations, communications, campaign management or related fields.
