Tural Azimzada
@turalazimzada
Senior PR and communications specialist leading strategic campaigns and media relations.
What I'm looking for
I’m a communications and public relations professional with 7+ years of experience across journalism, international organizations, and cultural institutions. I’ve built my career around strategic PR and media relations—leading PR campaigns, developing communications strategies, and securing high-level media placements while strengthening stakeholder relations through clear, persuasive messaging. During high-visibility, time-sensitive campaign periods, I’ve focused on campaign leadership, stakeholder coordination, and rigorous PR performance monitoring and reporting.
In my most recent role, I serve as a Public Relations & Creative Communications Manager, where I lead launches and cultural events, develop and implement communication strategies and concept notes, propose campaign slogans, and oversee promotional content design and production. I also manage media and stakeholder communications, handle crisis-sensitive communications, supervise and coordinate teams, and support execution through drafts of official correspondence, media content creation, and ongoing monitoring of project activities. Beyond communications, my background as an editor and journalist has strengthened my interviewing, content editing, translation, and media monitoring workflow—so I can translate strategy into publishable stories, measurable outcomes, and consistent brand voice.
