The posting

About the team:

The Media team is at the heart of Web Summit, making sure that the world’s most influential media attend, speak at and cover our events across the world. The team facilitates the best experience for the media during Web Summits, facilitating discussion and driving coverage across multiple platforms.

The Media team works with journalists on a daily basis, making sure that every significant media outlet, reporter and creator across the globe - whatever their platform - knows about, travels to and covers our events. In doing so, we drive awareness of our events as the world’s premier tech conferences - and of Web Summit as the world’s leading tech conference business.

The team also secures the most impactful and relevant moderators for our stage content; arranges interviews, live podcasts, creator content, press conferences and announcements; tracks and analyses coverage; sources and highlights relevant content for attending media; and works closely with Web Summit’s key teams to ensure the maximum impact and visibility of their work.

The Role:

Who you are:

  • Native Mandarin Speaker - you are fluent, comfortable and confident in communicating in both Mandarin and English.
  • You have a strong understanding of the Chinese media landscape and the Chinese technology/business ecosystem.
  • You’re familiar with platforms such as WeChat, Weibo, Douyin, Xiaohongshu, Zhihu and other Chinese social media platforms, and are comfortable creating compelling Chinese-language posts, short-form video concepts, social campaigns and editorial content.
  • You’re creative, confident and articulate: a clear communicator with excellent presentation and interpersonal skills
  • You’re an adaptable and resourceful individual who can work to tight deadlines under pressure
  • You’re a strategic thinker with a proven track record of planning, executing and evaluating activity on a long-term basis
  • You’re an excellent team player, but with the ability to work on your own initiative
  • You’re confident using AI tools and data to help manage and focus your work
  • You have previous experience dealing with media - as a journalist, or in relevant PR or marketing functions.
  • You have a strong attention to detail in everything you do
  • You have a proven track record of achieving targets.

What you’ll do:

  • You’ll identify compelling stories, build relationships with journalists, coordinate media opportunities and help position Web Summit, its speakers, partners, investors and startups within the Chinese media ecosystem
  • You’ll combine excellent communication skills with strong news judgement, cultural awareness and an ability to work at pace in a global events environment
  • You’ll develop relationships with China’s leading media, influencers, creators, and relevant communities, and ensure they attend our events
  • You’ll manage content for WeChat, Xiaohongshu, Weibo, Douyin, Bilibili and other relevant channels
  • You’ll take ownership of a number of content stages and tracks, becoming an expert on the media outlets and individuals who report on those tracks
  • You’ll use AI and data tools to ensure maximum efficiency, while maintaining immaculate records on Salesforce
  • You’ll have the drive and ambition to convince world-renowned media professionals to speak at our events, or chair talks with other high-profile speakers
  • You’ll develop and execute coverage planning strategies with top-tier media outlets and individuals before our events

Benefits and perks:

At Web Summit, we embrace diversity and inclusion. We want talent from all walks of life to help us on our journey to digitise the conference sector. Hiring decisions are made purely on experience, skills and the needs of the business.

We may use artificial intelligence (AI) tools to support parts of the hiring process, such as reviewing applications, analyzing resumes, or assessing responses. These tools assist our recruitment team but do not replace human judgment. Final hiring decisions are ultimately made by humans. If you would like more information about how your data is processed, please contact us.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
