ABOUT THE ROLE

As Communications Lead, you'll own Fonoa's voice — externally and internally. You'll run media relations with tier-one and trade press, manage the company's social channels, coach executives and employees to build their own public presence, and own how Fonoa shows up at events, in all-hands meetings, and across every written surface that isn't the product.

You'll sit at the intersection of story and strategy — working closely with our Product Marketing Lead on the underlying narrative, then pushing it into the world with consistency and velocity. You will enable founder-led, employee-amplified comms motion that makes Fonoa's voice recognisable and trusted across press, social, and internal channels.

This role reports to the Co-founder and works directly with the leadership team across EMEA and the Americas.

RESPONSIBILITIES

Media Relations

• Own relationships with tier-one and trade press, driving proactive story pitching and managing the full press cycle from planning through to coverage and follow-up.

Executive & Employee Communications

• Work closely with the executive team to build a consistent public presence, supporting content creation and putting simple systems in place for employees to share what they are building.

Launch Communications

• Lead communications for product and company launches, ensuring messaging, press outreach, internal alignment, and social amplification are well coordinated.

Company Social Channels

• Manage Fonoa’s company social channels, setting the tone, publishing content, and adjusting based on what performs.

Event Communications

• Use events as communication moments by shaping speaking narratives, preparing executives, and extending impact through press and social.

Internal Communications

• Own internal communications, including all-hands and company updates, ensuring messages are clear, timely, and aligned with the external narrative.

Narrative Execution

• Partner with Product Marketing to carry the core narrative across all channels, maintaining consistency and using market and competitor signals to refine messaging over time.

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

• 6–10 years in B2B communications, with at least one stint in-house at a high-growth company.

• Direct experience operating a founder-led or employee-amplified comms motion.

• Proven ability to draft a press release, a tweet, an all-hands script, and an op-ed — all in the same week.

• Build and run a consistent system for executive communication, including content planning, drafting support, and performance tracking to ensure regular, high-quality output.

• Create simple tools and templates that enable employees to share what they are working on and drive natural engagement.

• Develop and manage a forward-looking media plan that aligns company milestones with the right journalists and outlets.

• Leverage events and speaking opportunities to drive clear communication moments for not just presence or visibility but for impact.

• Experience advising and coaching senior leaders on communication strategy and help adjust messaging

Bonus

• Experience operating at a company in the middle of a major repositioning — where messaging, press, and social all had to change at once.

• Prior experience briefing analysts or navigating category-creation moments.
