  • Develop media strategies to support major corporate and industry regional events
  • Proactively manage key aspects of regular executive staff visits in region, coordinating media, customer and other stakeholder events
  • Support key parts of the business with dedicated, always-on media engagement.

  • Exceptional verbal and written communications skills. Excellent judgment, particularly in narrow timeframes
  • Experience managing and expanding a current network of media contacts
  • Fluency in additional languages beyond English not required, but considered a plus
  • The ability to breakdown and translate nuanced, complex technical issues into compelling narratives to land clean, positive stories across key media publications.
  • Highly capable and comfortable in large, high-growth, fast-paced organizations
  • Equally adept at marshaling internal armies and personally executing campaigns to get stuff done
