International Relations Specialist

An International Relations Specialist analyses global political trends and advises organisations on foreign policy and international affairs. You might work in government agencies, non-profit organisations, or multinational corporations. International Relations Specialists focus on diplomacy, trade negotiations, and geopolitical strategy. You’ll research international issues, draft reports, and contribute to policy development to support your organisation’s global objectives.

International Relations Specialists play a critical role in shaping foreign policy and maintaining international relations. You’ll need to be analytical and articulate, with strong communication skills to engage with diverse stakeholders. You’ll liaise with government officials, business leaders, and international partners to ensure your organisation’s interests are represented effectively on the global stage.
