Marketing Graduate Programme 2020 Hong Kong

About our Role

In a global investment management firm, Marketing has two equally important roles. Firstly, we are the brand builders and brand custodians. Secondly, we develop, and execute, communication strategies to help those who sell our products and services to achieve their sales targets.

We develop communication materials for a range of media such as television, print, the internet and social media. Communication materials are produced centrally and globally distributed as well as locally. We also organize and manage events which give our sales staff the opportunity to directly engage with their customers.

Our customers are not a single group. We need to understand and produce relevant communications for different client segments, including institutional, wholesalers of our products , retailers and direct investors.

In the markets in which we operate, our activities are subject to strict regulations and, as marketers; we have the significant responsibility of ensuring everything we produce is compliant with regulatory standards. Attention to detail in all we do is not just a business requirement it is also a legal one.

We have recently incorporated Taiwan, China and Hong Kong into a single marketing region. Our goal is to ensure all work, in all three markets is of the same high standard. With this role you will have the opportunity to be part of this dynamic change.

Graduate Development Programme Summary
