We're a brand-new comms department, inside a 1,000-person scale-up operating across multiple offices and time zones.
There's structure where it matters and space to build it where it doesn't exist yet.You'll help shape how we work, not just execute what's already there.

- Agency & Vendor Stewardship: Lead the analytical and negotiation process with agencies and vendors. You will work directly with agency owners to define scope, refine performance metrics, and ensure commercial alignment with our strategic goals.
