全职 Client Account Executive, Public Relations 工作, 薪水, Ruder Finn Asia Federal Territory 公司招聘中 - Ricebowl

We are looking for an Account Executive who is curious, organized, resourceful and tenacious enough to grow in today’s communications industry.

At Ruder Finn Malaysia, you will be part of a Malaysian team with access to the wider strength of a global communications network. This means you will get hands-on exposure across different types of work, clients and industries, while also having opportunities to support regional collaboration and cross-border projects when required. This is not a role for someone who only wants to “do PR” from the sidelines. You will be involved in writing, research, media relations, client coordination, campaign support, events, reporting and new business preparation. You will learn how communications is shaped by business priorities, media behaviour, digital platforms, public sentiment, stakeholder expectations and increasingly, AI-enabled tools. The ideal candidate has strong writing fundamentals, good attention to detail, a willingness to learn and the tenacity to keep going when timelines are tight, media follow-ups are challenging, client needs shift, or the first answer is not good enough. You do not need to know everything from day one, but you must be resourceful, accountable, responsive and open to feedback.

At Ruder Finn Malaysia, AI is a tool — not a replacement for thinking. We expect our team to use technology responsibly to support research, drafting, summarizing and ideation, while still applying human judgement, accuracy, context and empathy

Your responsibilities will include

• Writing communications materials such as media pitches, press releases, media alerts, fact sheets, biographies, briefing documents, social content and reports. Supporting media relations, including media list development, pitching, follow-ups, coordination of media requests and coverage tracking.
• Conducting research and monitoring on clients, industries, competitors, media trends, public sentiment and emerging issues.
• Using AI and digital tools responsibly to support research, drafting, summarizing, ideation and productivity.
• Coordinating day-to-day account work, including timelines, contact reports, meeting notes, activity reports, coverage updates and client follow-ups.
• Supporting campaign execution, media events, launches, briefings, stakeholder engagements, influencer activities and client activations.
• Assisting with new business research, proposal preparation, competitor scans, campaign references and idea generation.
• Working with internal teams, clients, media, vendors, partners and regional colleagues where relevant.
• Staying informed on current affairs, media developments, cultural conversations, business issues and industry trends

We are looking for someone with:

• Good writing and communication skills.
• Curiosity about media, business, brands, people, culture and current affairs.
• Strong organisation, attention to detail and follow-through.
• The tenacity to manage follow-ups, shifting timelines and pressure without losing professionalism.
• Comfort with digital tools and willingness to learn AI-assisted ways of working.
• Resourcefulness in finding information and solving problems.
• Accountability in completing assigned work properly and on time.
• A positive attitude towards feedback, learning and improvement.
• The ability to work well in a team where everyone is expected to contribute

Experience:

• 1–2 years of experience in an agency environment, communications or digital content is preferred.
• Basic knowledge of media relations, social media platforms, content trends and current affairs.
• A strong command of English is required.
• Familiarity with tools such as Microsoft Office, Google Workspace, Canva, media monitoring platforms or AI tools will be an advantage

Skills Required:

1. Personal Attributes

• Curious about people, brands, media, culture and business.
• Tenacious and resilient in handling fast timelines, changes, media follow-ups and client expectations. Not afraid of hands-on work, including coordination, reporting, research and logistics.

• Professional, respectful and dependable when dealing with clients, media and colleagues.
• Willing to grow in an agency environment where learning comes through doing.

2.Core Communication Skills

3.Digital & AI Readiness

• Comfortable using digital tools for research, monitoring, coordination and content development.
• Willingness to learn and use AI tools responsibly to improve productivity and thinking.
• Ability to fact-check, question outputs, and avoid over-reliance on AI-generated content.
• Awareness that good communications still requires human judgement, context, empathy and accuracy.
• Interest in how technology is changing media, content, reputation and stakeholder communications.

4.Agency Working Skills

• Strong attention to detail.
• Ability to manage multiple tasks and deadlines. Good organization and follow-through.
• Ability to work under pressure without losing quality or professionalism.
