Investor relations manager

Specialism: Financial management

What is an investor relations manager and what do they do?

Investor relations managers have the responsibility of managing communication between a company’s corporate management and its investors. They help to support releasing information, handling inquiries and meetings, and providing feedback to management and crisis management. Investor relations professionals focus on the company’s financial community, rather than its business customers or the general public.
