  • Inspire and manage external agencies and partners to deliver exceptional results within budget and scope. 

  • Develop a measurement framework to evaluate the success of FIFA partnership communications, aligning with Lenovo’s broader reputation metrics. 

  • Serve as a spokesperson for Lenovo’s FIFA partnership when necessary. 


What you bring: 

  • Direct experience working with football (soccer) or similarly high-profile global sports, including live events, e-sports, or gaming, either on the brand or rightsholder side. 

  • Proven ability to thrive in a dynamic, fast-paced, and matrixed environment. 

  • Self-motivated with a results-oriented mindset, capable of delivering under pressure. 

  • Adept at building trust and fostering strong relationships with senior leaders, blending strategic advisory expertise with hands-on execution. 

  • Skilled at influencing decentralized communications teams to drive unified results, with a focus on collaborating across Lenovo’s business groups and geographic markets. 

  • Global experience and mindset gained through living, studying, or working in multicultural environments. 

  • Flexibility to work outside of traditional hours to accommodate global collaboration and time zones.
