We are hiring a Director of Employee Communications to reset and lead this function at a higher strategic and operational level. As we set out to become a $10B company in the age of AI, we must drive a high-performance culture grounded in clear strategy and operating at pace. To do this, we must raise the bar on how our internal comms operates and delivers the information employees need in order to execute successfully, while strengthening leadership alignment, employee trust and clarity during periods of change. This requires a Director-level leader who can set the strategy and operating model for the function, influence senior stakeholders, lead through others and drive into execution when needed with core partners, including executive leadership, the People team and Global Comms. It is important to base this role in the U.S. (San Francisco, NYC, or Austin) so the Director is in the time zones where leadership is primarily making decisions that directly impact employees and the internal communications function day-to-day in addition to supporting high-velocity, high-stakes communications with senior leaders in real-time. Early objectives include:
MongoDB is building the data platform for the next generation of production-grade AI applications. We’re looking for a Director of Employee Communications to lead our internal communications strategy and execution. Reporting to the Sr. Director of Global Communications, you will own the internal communications function to keep our global employees aligned with our company strategy and engaged in our customer-obsessed mission, with a focus on clarity, trust and execution across the business.
We need a strategic operator who thrives on the ‘how’ and is energized by the challenge of giving our employees the clarity they need to succeed.
