About True Run Media
Founded in 2001, True Run Media is a media, events, advertising and publishing company that helps the local and international communities get the most out of life in China. Our brands include the Beijinger (available in both English and Chinese), Jingkids Beijing,Jingkids Shanghai, Jingkids Shenzhen (in Chinese) and Jingkids International (in English) where our range of community events, social media, print magazines and online websites reach over 100,000 people monthly – from millennials looking for a good time to parents looking for family fun or the country’s best schools. For brands and businesses, we offer a direct connection with both local and international consumers,helping businesses of all shapes and sizes grow and prosper in China.
After a decade of living in Beijing, my family and I will be moving in a few short months to Henan Province for different career opportunities.
While I'm excited about our new adventure, I'm heartbroken about having to leave my position as managing editor of jingkids. This has been the most amazing job, and the team that I get to work with every day is made up of some of the most down-to-Earth friends I've ever had.
Over the past three years at jingkids, I've had the privilege of working for someone who's given me the freedom to realize my ideas and visions, while guiding my career with his expertise.
The team at True Run Media is truly like family. We empower and support each other, we work together to build a product that benefits everyone, and we make it part of the company culture that we take time out of our day to have fun! Where else can you find a company that puts so much effort into making sure you've got a work/life balance, and that your mental health is a priority?
So, with that said, we're looking for someone to join this amazing group of people and lead the jingkids team as its new managing editor.
