Your insights into the ever-changing press climate will be critical in driving continuous media exposure.
• Content creation:
  Your knack for storytelling will be at the heart of our communications. You’ll curate and refine all content—from press releases and Q&A documents to bylines as well as support with the development of comprehensive strategic plans—in both English and/or Chinese. Consistency, clarity, and creativity will define the high-quality content that you and your team produce.

  As the trusted advisor, you’ll serve as the primary liaison for our clients. You’ll offer strategic counsel that connects communications tactics to business goals, engaging with senior management and C-level executives to ensure every program is executed to perfection. Your ability to foster long-term relationships will be a cornerstone of our success.
• Account management:
  You’ll lead day-to-day account operations with precision and creativity. From supporting to managing budgets and coordinating resources to overseeing multiple projects simultaneously, your hands-on approach ensures seamless execution and exceptional results. Working closely with senior leaders, you’ll drive initiatives that elevate client satisfaction and agency profitability.
• New business:
  Fuel our growth by bringing fresh ideas to the table. You’ll contribute to RFPs, pitch decks, and new business presentations, showcasing our expertise and innovative approach. Your creative input and strategic mindset will help secure new opportunities and expand our roster of dynamic tech clients.
• Mentorship/training:
  At Hoffman, leadership is shared. Serve as a direct manager to junior staff, providing guidance and constructive feedback through one-on-one coaching and interactive sessions like “lunch bucket” presentations.
