The successful candidate will be a strategic and results-driven leader with a passion for creating opportunity through mobility. This role is pivotal in setting and overseeing the company's comprehensive communications strategy, including all earned media, corporate messaging, and strategic initiatives. The Head of Communications will be responsible for owning the narrative, leading in crisis situations, and building a strong foundation of strategic messaging.
