About the role

We're hiring for Internal Communications, GTM to define how we inform and align a global Go-To-Market (GTM) organization at speed. You will partner with GTM leadership, Product, and cross-functional teams to set the narrative, run the systems, and ship communication that drives action. You will publish the weekly company-wide GTM update with wins, deployments, and top priorities, and you increase reach while cutting duplicate channel traffic. You will prepare leaders for All Hands, keynotes, and customer events with clear storylines and visuals and rehearsal. You will run comms like a product with governance, targeting, and measurement. You will drive week-one understanding of tier-1 updates, timely manager cascades, and clear reach to the right teams.

This role is based in San Francisco, CA. We use a hybrid work model of three days in the office per week and offer relocation assistance to new employees.

In this role you will:

• Own the GTM message map as the source of truth for priorities, milestones, and customer impact, and publish a monthly snapshot of progress and next decisions.

• Act as DRI for tier-1 GTM communications across launches, partnerships, and reorgs, and confirm week-one understanding with pre-briefs, FAQs, and pulse checks.

• Publish the weekly GTM update with wins, deployments, and top priorities, and track segment reach while cutting duplicate Slack posts.

• Design and run manager cascades with briefs, FAQs, and assets within 24 hours, and drive manager delivery across 90% of teams within three days for tier-1 changes.

• Shape All Hands, keynotes, and customer events with clear storylines, visuals, and speaking notes, and fold lessons learned into the next event.

• Run comms governance with intake, SLAs, an editorial board, and clear escalation, and use turnaround and quality data to improve flow and report these results monthly.

• Lead change and sensitive communications with sequencing and measurement, share an after-action readout with impact and next steps, and coordinate with Legal, Security, and External CommsPR on sensitive content.

• Run segmented global communications with localization, inclusive language and accessibility, and use a comms stack for targeting, search, and analytics that track understanding and behavior change.

You might thrive in this role if you

• Bring 8+ years in internal or executive communications for global GTM or commercial teams with a portfolio that shows company-scale impact.

• Translate complex product strategy and customer stories into clear narratives that drive decisions and action and show cases that changed behavior.

• Craft executive narratives across slides and short-form writing for keynotes, All Hands, and customer events and coach leaders and managers to deliver them.

• Lead change and crisis communications with sound judgment under pressure and tight timelines with playbooks and postmortems that strengthen the next run.

• Build systems for governance, intake, editorial calendars, and measurement that reduce cycle times as the team scales.

• Bring stagecraft for All Hands, keynotes, and customer events and coach speakers through rehearsal.

• Use AI for drafting, targeting, tone-shifting, and QA with documented prompts and clear human controls.

• Show a portfolio with executive narratives, change plans, incident responses, and a weekly-update sample.
