Strong crisis communications experience with demonstrated ability to lead rapid, cross-functional response under pressure.
Strategic storyteller with excellent writing and presentation skills; able to craft concise executive messages and enterprise-wide narratives.
Comfortable operating in a fast-moving SaaS/tech environment; experience with product-led, AI-enabled messaging is strongly preferred.
Collaborative leader who builds influence across functions (Product, Marketing, Legal, IR, HR, Sales) and across regions.
Experience as a Comms professional helping a company write an S-1 for a public offering a plus

Basic Qualifications

10+ years of communications experience (agency or in-house), including significant experience in enterprise/internal communications and external PR/analyst relations.
5+ years managing and scaling global communications teams or equivalent leadership responsibility.
Proven experience advising executives and managing enterprise announcements, crisis communications, and cross-functional programs.
Demonstrated AI literacy: comfortable using AI tools for drafting, ideation, research, and measurement, and able to assess how AI impacts messaging, risk, and channels.

Preferred Qualifications

Prior experience at a high-growth SaaS or enterprise software company or agency with technology clients.
Track record working with analysts (Gartner, Forrester, IDC) and achieving measurable analyst outcomes.
Experience managing global communications budgets and external agency relationships ($1M+).
Experience with M&A communications and coordination with Investor Relations.
International experience across APAC/EMEA markets.

AI literacy requirement (required language)
