As the Regional Brand and Communications Manager at Greenpeace Southeast Asia (GPSEA), your role will be critical to ensuring that we are seen as trustworthy, credible, and relevant to our audiences, and as a formidable force to our adversaries.

You’ll lead a small creative team where your focus will be on content marketing and creative campaigning in the Southeast Asia region but will be expected to collaborate with people around the world.

Together, we’ll reinforce Greenpeace’s identity and brand, ensuring that it shines through everything we do. You will be fostering collaboration and generating innovative ideas, both internally and with external partners. Additionally, you’ll play a key role in crisis response, ensuring that we are prepared and equipped to handle any challenges that come our way.

This is a full-time fixed-term position for 2 years based in any of the GPSEA offices (Bangkok, Jakarta, Kuala Lumpur, or Manila).
