Job description

Who We Are :

At Community Financial Credit Union, we believe in more than just banking, we believe in people. We are looking to build a community of forward-thinking team members who share our values towards providing exceptional member experiences and financial empowerment through our best-in-class products.

About the role :

The strategic communications specialist strengthens how our people understand, talk about, and live our brand every day. This role focuses on internal communications and on clarity of messaging that helps our team members shine. Working alongside (and distinct from) Marketing, this specialist creates tools, playbooks, procedures, and communication frameworks that help team members confidently communicate about our products, brand, and organizational priorities.

This includes owning the internal messaging cadence, managing content on our intranet, maintaining rigor in internal policy and procedure documentation, and supporting organizational alignment through clear and consistent communication.

This role is ideal for a sharp, curious writer with at least two years of experience who loves shaping messages, organizing information, and helping people understand what matters and why.

This position has a starting hourly rate of $31.49 but your offer amount may be increased with relevant work experience and transferable skills.

  • Build internal content calendars and manage distribution pathways for key communications.
  • Cross-Functional Collaboration

  • Work closely with Marketing to align internal messages with external storytelling and brand campaigns.
  • Partner with other departments, especially the People Team and Operations, on communications tied to product rollouts, change management, and team member experience.
  • Brand & Product Alignment

  • Create internal communication toolkits for product launches, brand moments, and organizational priorities.
  • Ensure team members have the right language, FAQs, and resources to communicate confidently and consistently.
  • Reinforce brand voice internally through clear, human-first communication.
  • What you bring to the table :

  • Bachelor's degree in Communications, Journalism, English, Public Relations, or related field.
  • Minimum 2 years of experience in writing, internal communications, or media communications.
  • Exceptional writing, editing, and information-organization skills.
  • Demonstrated ability to translate complex information into clear, accessible content.
  • Ability to manage multiple projects, meet deadlines, and maintain accuracy in a fast-paced environment.
  • Strong collaboration skills and comfort working with leaders, SMEs, and cross-functional teams.
  • High ethical standards, attention to detail, and commitment to quality.
  • You might also have :

  • Experience in maintaining intranet systems or internal knowledge bases.
  • Experience in financial services, cooperative organizations, or community-centered industries.
  • Familiarity with change management communication strategies.
  • Understanding of brand storytelling and voice alignment.
  • Experience supporting policy or procedure documentation.
  • We believe in creating a Culture of Belonging guided by our core values : Relentless Care, Hustle & Grind, Huzzah! and Curiosity.
