About the Role
The Company is seeking a Head of Communications to build and lead its global communications function, strengthening brand awareness, reputation, and market presence. The role owns product and corporate communications, public and media relations, internal and crisis communications, international programs, executive thought leadership, and awards strategy. The successful candidate will turn complex technical developments and customer impact into compelling stories, build relationships with journalists and emerging media, and coordinate communications around major business milestones. They will advise senior leaders, partner across business functions, and initially work hands-on while hiring and developing a high-performing team and managing external agencies. Candidates should have 10 or more years of experience in public relations, product communications, or corporate communications, ideally in high-growth B2B technology. They need a record of earning meaningful media coverage, strong journalist relationships, and the ability to explain complex technical topics through clear, engaging storytelling. The role requires exceptional writing and editorial judgment, experience leading communications teams and agencies, and confidence advising executives on sensitive or high-stakes matters. Strong strategic judgment, operational discipline, and comfort building scalable processes in ambiguous environments are essential. Experience in networking, cybersecurity, infrastructure, developer tools, AI, or global technology communications is an advantage.
