Assignments:
- Press relations

Following their first meeting with the writer, our PR Executive and Digital Project Manager waste no time in getting started! While our PR Executive tackles the monthly press releases, our Digital Project Manager and his team get on with the digital strategy.
Our colleagues work together to ensure harmonious communication. From John-Erich Nielsen’s atypical background and his books full of suspense to the reason why he came to Mauritius, all press actions are replicated accordingly on social media, illustrated with beautifully colourful visuals.
