About Edelman's Crisis & Risk Practice: Edelman's Crisis & Risk practice is one of the largest and most respected in the world. With over 180 practitioners in 65 countries, we address some of the most complex reputational issues for clients worldwide. Issues that the team handles include corporate malfeasance, societal matters, litigation, ethics and integrity, security risks (e.g., physical and data), product and service risks (e.g., safety, health) and financial. About the Opportunity: Edelman is establishing a new Counter-Disinformation Unit (CDU) to provide deeper expertise in this growing area of reputational risk. It will build on the success that Edelman's Digital Crisis team has had in this space in recent years. The CDU will help clients anticipate, build resilience against, respond to, and recover from misinformation and disinformation attacks, ranging on a spectrum from organic consumer misperceptions through to weaponized state-backed disinformation and influence operations. Working as part of a Global team and reporting to the Head of Global Digital Crisis, The Senior Vice President, Counter Disinformation, region will be responsible for developing the CDU strategy and offer against an agreed set of objectives. This individual will work across a wide range of Edelman teams to introduce, deliver, and execute the offer. The CDU team will also be supported by a research resource responsible for providing up to date analysis and strategic insights that will help inform a multi-channel crisis response strategy for our clients as they combat these disinformation risks. This role will also play a key role in shaping the longer-term vision for the Crisis & Risk specialism considering the growing impact of artificial intelligence (AI) and the shifting media landscape. Given the CDU is a rapidly evolving offering from Edelman, there is significant scope to develop the strategy, targets and operating principles. We would also expect this role to take the lead in evolving and deepening the capabilities of the team in this area. The role requires someone who is comfortable in a constantly changing landscape.In return, you will play an integral part in leading accounts thatareat the center of some of the most relevant discussionsin the world today.
