About the Role

The Company is seeking a Head of Strategic Communications to shape how audiences understand its work and the potential of prosocial technology. The role owns communications strategy, core narrative, messaging, and brand consistency, while advising executive leadership on positioning and public presence. Responsibilities include producing funder-facing materials, developing leaders’ profiles, creating social and newsletter content, building media relationships, and coordinating campaigns, launches, and rapid-response communications. The successful candidate will also define success metrics, assess performance, and adapt communications based on results, working hands-on with colleagues across the organization. Candidates should have at least eight years of communications experience, ideally in technology, philanthropy, or mission-driven settings, with experience owning both strategy and execution. Excellent writing, editing, media pitching, audience judgment, and a record of securing press coverage are required. Applicants should have experience growing social media and newsletter audiences, understand both traditional and emerging media channels, and use data to guide decisions. Fluency with AI tools and the ability to develop thoughtful AI-assisted workflows are expected, along with adaptability, strong prioritization, and comfort working independently in a small team.
