You'll need to have:

• 2+ years applicable experience working in communications in various subject areas
• Excellent written, editorial and verbal communication skills. Exceptional research, grammar, editing and proofreading skills
• A passion for storytelling and a creative mindset with the ability to translate complex subjects and business jargon into simple, impactful messages and narratives

• Ability to navigate ambiguity and leverage internal resources to move multiple projects forward
• Bachelor’s degree in Business, Communications, English, Marketing, Public Relations or a related field
• Proven content samples (written articles, company-wide memos, video scripts, etc.) crafted to support internal communications efforts

We'd love to see:
