Job description

About the role

Joveo builds AI-powered recruiting technology. We are looking for someone who can help make Joveo a company people turn to for a clear, informed view on AI and the future of hiring.

You will help bring the ideas, expertise and work inside the company into the conversations that matter to our business.

We are hiring a communications professional with an editor’s instinct for a story and the initiative to make it happen. You can spot an angle in a customer conversation, draw a compelling point of view out of a founder, and earn attention for work that deserves it.

Reporting directly to the Chief of Strategic Initiatives & Global Supply Officer, you will lead strategic PR and leadership visibility. You will work closely with senior stakeholders to shape Joveo’s corporate narrative and advise on where we should speak, what we can credibly say and which opportunities deserve our attention.

Strategic PR is the primary mandate. Creative brand campaigns are an important extension of it. We want someone who brings original ideas, understands how different channels work and can turn a strong story into a campaign people remember.

What you’ll do

• Develop Joveo’s corporate narrative. Get close to our leaders, customers and subject experts. Find the evidence behind the story and turn it into compelling pitches, commentary, contributed articles and briefing material.
• Build a sustained earned-media program across relevant business, technology, startup and industry publications. Develop relationships with journalists, editors, newsletters and podcasts by understanding their audiences and bringing them useful ideas.
• Strengthen leadership visibility. Develop distinctive points of view, prepare executives for interviews and identify relevant speaking opportunities. Make the message sharper while preserving the person’s voice.
• Lead communications around approved company milestones, product developments and funding announcements when relevant. Prepare FAQs, manage media enquiries and advise leadership when an issue requires a careful response.
• Originate creative campaigns that support our PR priorities. Turn customer insights, company expertise or a timely point of view into an editorial series, collaboration, event or other relevant format. Own the brief and channel choices, coordinating specialists where needed.
• Use paid PR selectively and make the budget work harder. Assess sponsored content, distribution, events and agencies against a clear audience, objective and cost. Find resourceful ways to build visibility through earned and owned channels.
• Measure whether the work is making a difference. Track coverage relevance, message accuracy, audience engagement and attributable inbound interest. Keep paid exposure distinct from earned coverage and use the results to improve the next campaign.

What we’re looking for

• You have personally earned relevant coverage for a technology business, startup or agency client. You can explain how you found the story, pitched it and adapted when the first approach did not work.
• You know India’s business and technology media and have relevant working relationships.
• You write and edit exceptionally well. You can understand a complex product and explain why it matters in language people want to read.
• You are comfortable advising senior leaders, questioning a weak angle and recommending a stronger one.
• You have originated a campaign, collaboration or channel idea that made an impact. You can show your contribution and explain the audience insight behind it.
• You are resourceful with a focused budget and can take an idea through execution. Experience in AI, enterprise technology, corporate milestone communications or international media is useful.

You will help shape the story while it is being formed, with direct access to senior leadership and responsibility for how it reaches the public.

There is room to bring your own editorial judgment and pursue original ideas. Your work will influence how customers, prospective hires and the wider business community understand Joveo, with PR at the centre and creative thinking throughout.
