Internal Communication Specialist

About Ruder Finn India:

Ruder Finn is one of the world's largest independent communications agencies. Born in New York in 1948 with a restless What's Next spirit that still drives us today, it was one of the first PR agencies in the world. From bold ideas to breakthrough storytelling, we help brands, leaders, and causes stay ahead in a world that never stands still.

In India, our journey has been nothing short of electric. In just 7 years, we've scaled from a boutique agency to one of the fastest-growing large agencies in the country. Along the way, we've built a culture where people grow, experiment, and shine, proven by consistently leading the people and campaign award wins. With 250+ awards in the last 5 years and titles like Mid-Sized Agency of the Year and Large Agency of the Year (multiple times), we're not just part of the conversation. We're shaping it.
