About FINN Partners
Founded in 2011, FINN Partners is one of the world's fastest-growing independent, integrated marketing and communications agencies. The firm operates from offices across North America, Europe, Asia and the Middle East, working across health, travel and tourism, technology, financial services, consumer and lifestyle, and public affairs.
The Middle East office is based in Abu Dhabi. It is a small, close-knit regional team operating inside a large global network; the agency's scale and specialist resources sit behind a team where every hire has direct, visible impact on client work.
More about the role
Provide flexible, cross-account execution support across the Middle East practice's healthcare and health-travel and financial services client base, moving between accounts based on capacity need rather than sitting fixed on one.

Maintain consistent quality and pace of delivery across multiple concurrent accounts by providing an execution layer that can be deployed where the team needs it most in a given week.
What you’ll do
  • Research, draft, and manage routine client projects across more than one industry vertical simultaneously (e.g. health and medical travel, and financial services)
  • Handle day-to-day media inquiries and outreach across whichever account is currently assigned
  • Develop and pitch stories to relevant trade, business, and consumer media, adapting tone and sourcing rigour to the sector; for example, compliance-aware framing for regulated financial clients, and sensitive sourcing for healthcare and medical content
  • Draft and review materials (releases, Q&A, pitch notes) to each account's specific editorial standard
  • Provide continuity across account handovers, briefing quickly on a new account's context, spokespeople, and sensitivities
  • Support new business proposal development when capacity allows
  • Maintain account administration (billing, activity reporting) for whichever accounts are currently assigned
  • Work comfortably in a small, start-up-style team environment, picking up new projects quickly and adjusting to different clients' working styles with minimal ramp-up time
  • No single fixed reporting line; receives day-to-day direction from whichever account lead they are supporting that week or sprint. Works across the health, travel, and financial services client base.
  • Works with junior account handlers, internal service departments, external vendors, news media, and other PR and advertising agencies, depending on the account assigned.
Experience that contributes to success
  • Minimum 2–3 years' agency PR experience
  • Fluent in English, with confident, comfortable writing skills across different tones and formats
  • Demonstrated ability to work across sectors without a long ramp-up time — this role rewards adaptability over deep specialism in any one vertical
  • Comfortable with regulated-industry content discipline (financial services compliance, healthcare sourcing standards)
  • Strong writing and media relations fundamentals
  • Comfortable in a small, start-up-style regional team; able to move between different projects and accounts quickly, without extensive process or handholding
  • Arabic language skills a plus
  • University degree
  • Generalist agency experience across at least two of: healthcare/medical, financial services, or travel.

What We Do

1400+ People. 3 Continents. 33 Offices. We are a global integrated marketing agency transforming and inspiring the world of communications every day. A LETTER FROM PETER FINN: DECEMBER 2011. FINN PARTNERS WAS BORN. After 11 years serving as co-CEO of an historic agency that carried my father’s name— and mine!—and after 30+ years of working at the firm, I wanted to build something different, bold, meaningful and amazing for clients, our colleagues and the community. "Amazing"​ was, and is, for me an important word. I imagined we could be "amazing"​ every day, knowing this is a goal not always achieved but always pursued. A place where talented people could gather and do big things for clients as well as make a difference to the communities important to us. WE LAUNCHED WITH A GROUP WHO SHARED A VISION. This was to be a "new"​ agency model, driven by a collaborative spirit. We asked, "Can we bind our 60-year legacy to the energy and speed of today’s hi-tech world?"​ We had $24 million in fees at our founding. Today, we have more than $85 million in fees, over 700 colleagues and 18 offices across three continents. Our Founding Managing Partners, highly respected colleagues who took the leap with me from our former agency, have been joined by the principals of other great agencies that became Finn Partner companies. So many other talented individuals are with us, too, intrigued by the idea of doing amazing things in an amazing workplace community. WE’VE MADE OUR MARK QUICKLY. Finn Partners has been named “Best New Agency,” “Best PR Agency to Work for in North America” and“Best Mid-Sized Agency of the Year” three times. Now, we’re one of the world’s largest agencies. WE ARE A YOUNG AGENCY. We share the genes of a respected agency that pioneered today’s integrated communications. But we are not them. We are unique. We are ourselves. We are focused on the future, building that future during each amazing day.
