• Support media campaigns related to the firm's products, including mutual funds, interval funds, separately managed accounts, and ETFs, as well as CSR initiatives
• Partner directly with investment teams to develop and align messaging for each asset class-such as equities, fixed income, and alternative investments-to ensure accuracy, consistency, and strategic focus across all media outreach and communications
• Organize regular media training for key investment professionals and spokespeople within the firm
