The Economist is the leading source of analysis on international business and world affairs. It delivers information through a range of formats including its newspapers, website, podcasts, and app as well as its conferences and events. What ties it together is the objectivity of its opinion, the originality of our insight and our advocacy of economic and political freedom around the world.

The Communications Department is a core function within The Economist Group, supporting all parts of the media company. The team aims to raise awareness for primarily The Economist but also serves The Economist Group’s other business units including Economist Education, Economist Impact and Economist Intelligence.

The team is active in a variety of channels including but not limited to digital and broadcast media relations, public relations, trade and editorial award entries and speaking engagements for The Economist Group’s editorial and business leaders.

We are seeking a Communications Manager to join our Communications team. The Communications Manager will report to the team’s Senior Vice President and will work closely with the global communications team to help grow awareness for primarily The Economist, Economist Impact initiatives and other business activities.

The successful candidate will possess a unique mix of research, writing and interpersonal skills.
