Job Description
We’re looking for a seasoned PR leader with deep experience in corporate and product tech communications to lead PR in the Americas.
Leading a team distributed from our office in Austin, you’ll help us grow and make Wise a household name in the US and across the region.
You’ll do that by building a communications strategy that maximizes the product news pipeline, delivers global corporate announcements and brings Wise to life with creative and innovative consumer and B2B PR campaigns to ensure that Wise is well known in the policy press, and consumer and business press alike.
You’ll be comfortable handling complicated or tricky issues when they come up, and working with journalists to ensure that Wise’s reputation is upheld. You’re not daunted by industry jargon or technical details and know how to dive into the product to understand the details, and then simplify them for your audiences.

You’ll leverage the media relationships that already exist, and are able to add more
Supporting Global Corporate Communications
You’ll develop communications strategies that build awareness of Wise with influential national, business and tech media across the region, and handle issues when they arise
You’ll proactively build and execute PR programs that build Wise’s reputation and drive product awareness and, ultimately, adoption - delivering substantial media coverage, meaningful speaking opportunities for our regional and global spokespeople, and creating new ways to help us make the media and public aware of the problem we’re solving and how.
Leading our team and measuring success
You’ll lead our team of 3 and help them grow. You have experience coaching on functional expertise as well as the ability to manage business unit partners and agencies
You know what a high performance team looks like and have clear metrics for individual and team success
You believe in leading by example and are not afraid to get hands on, working side by side with the regional and global teams across the communications function and the broader organisation
Driving strategic global team initiatives forward as a leader within the global communications team
