Account Manager

India - Mumbai

There are two kinds of people in the world, those who react to the news and those who drive it. Which are you?

The ever-changing media landscape requires that today’s PR professional be adaptive, quick, intuitive and flexible. Is that you?

The growth of technologies such as wireless, Web 2.0, online gaming and digital entertainment means that today’s PR professionals have to be able to predict trends before they happen. Is that you?

The globalization of the economy means that more and more companies are extending their campaigns across borders; requiring today’s PR professionals to have an interest in traveling abroad and an inherent knowledge of international cultures. Is that you?

If it is, then we want to hear from you!
