- Ecosystem Communications: Partner with Korean builders, creators, and ecosystem partners to surface local stories and campaigns.
- Proactive Comms Strategy: Go beyond execution. Proactively identify opportunities to elevate Storyโs brand, ecosystem, and leadership via earned media, thought leadership, cultural trends, or market moments. Weโre looking for a self-starter who brings comms ideas to the table.
- Support Regulatory & Government Positioning: Contribute to Storyโs positioning in Koreaโs innovation policy and public discourse, in coordination with government affairs consultants if needed.
- Event Support: Help with communications and media strategy for major events (e.g. Korea Blockchain Week), Story-hosted events, or community activations. Identify and secure relevant local events and speaking opportunities for Story and its leadership.
- Crisis Comms & Reputation Management: Monitor local sentiment, flag issues early, and support real-time response efforts in the event of market or media escalations.
- Internal Coordination: Act as the local โhubโ for communications collaborating closely with global Marketing, Ecosystem, and Business Development teams.
- Measurement & Reporting: Track local media KPIs, sentiment shifts, and ecosystem visibility; report insights back to the global team.
Desired Skills and Experience
- 10+ years in communications, PR, media relations, or public affairs (combination of agency and in-house preferred).
- Proven track record of earned media wins in Korea, especially with top-tier outlets (e.g., Chosun Biz, Hankyung, The Bell, Maeil Kyungjae, TechM).
- Comes with strong existing relationships across Koreaโs tech, business, and culture media landscape
- Deep understanding of Koreaโs cultural and tech landscape, especially crypto, AI, gaming, entertainment, creator economy, and K-content IP.
- Experience in Web3, crypto, blockchain, or emerging tech strongly preferred.
- Strong writing skills in Korean (press releases, bylines, narratives, media Q&As).
- Excellent English skills: comfortable navigating a global team and reviewing/editing English drafts.
- Strategic thinker and self-starter: able to independently spot opportunities and act on them.
- Familiarity with Koreaโs regulatory and policy dynamics around crypto, AI, IP, or internet platforms is a major plus.
