Role Objective

Quectel Wireless Solutions is a global IoT technology developer and cellular module supplier of 5G, LTE, LTE-A, LPWA, Smart Modules, C-V2X, GSM/GPRS, UMTS/HSPA(+), and GNSS modules. Due to business expansion in the Serbian market, our R&D Centre in Belgrade is looking for a motivated and proactive Communication Manager UK to join our growing team.

About You

You will be a strong communicator who combines excellent writing skills with an instinct for what makes a good story. You will be comfortable getting into the detail of technical products and markets but equally able to step back and understand the wider business or industry story.

Most importantly, you will be curious about technology and able to find interesting, relevant stories within a complex and rapidly evolving industry.
