Kyiv

Hello!

My name is Ira Franchuk, I head the Employer Branding department at SKELAR. This is a Ukrainian venture builder that builds international tech businesses. I can go on and on about how much I love the SKELAR brand, my work in general and the communication team - by the way, we have a fantastic team. They are strong communicators and designers.

But we lack a few proactive and ambitious players who would strengthen us in building a strong employer brand on the Ukrainian tech market. In particular, we are looking for a PR Manager, who will work with media relations to develop the Employer Branding direction.

Now SKELAR is the TOP 2 IT employer according to the DOU. Our portfolio includes a dozen businesses in various niches from EdTech to marketplaces. These are companies that have been awarded by Product Hunt, are included in the ratings of the TOP startups and product companies of Ukraine, occupy the highest steps in the AppStore and develop platforms that are used by millions of people. TechCrunch, Wired and other global media also write about SKELAR businesses.

So together with a super powerful communication team PR Manager will promote Employer Branding SKELAR.

What is important for us:

• Experience in the position of Communications Manager / PR Manager from 1.5 years. Experience in a communication or advertising agency will be an advantage;

In addition to businesses, we are developing the SKELAR foundation from the employees of our venture builder to support the Armed Forces. Within the limits of the initiative, we create and finance large projects, which helpsbring our victory closer.
