International Relations Officer

International Relations officers are marketing and PR professionals who manage how their company or organisational brand is perceived and experienced overseas. They may work to attract investors or to begin globalising the brand by shipping products overseas.

As an international relations officer you could be liaising with foreign dignitaries to understand of how the company’s slogans and tag-lines are interpreted in foreign languages, establishing a relationship with a foreign journalist, or researching world history and current events to predict how they may impact relationships with overseas suppliers.
