Are you the Missing Piece?

Are you a slide-slinging, newsletter-loving, deck-devising second brain to the C-suite? Do you secretly enjoy decoding internal structures to get to yes, ghostwriting for execs, and building storytelling systems from scratch?

This role directly supports a dynamic Chief Digital Officer at a nearly $2-billion publicly traded company. Youll be the go-to storyteller, strategist, and trusted comms consigliere for one of the most influential digital leaders in media today. This isnt a ""fill-in-the-template"" job. This is build-it-from-scratch, set-the-standard-for-the-org, leave-your-mark-for-years kind of work.

What's it going to take to score an interview

• 10+ years of internal communications and content strategy experience, preferably at a major public company. Youve been the strategic voice behind execs at major public companies (Fortune 2000+, 2,000+ employees minimum).
• Ghostwriting for the C-suite. Youve written as a CDO, CTO, or CEO and know how to nail their voice, tone, and timing in step with their intended audience.
• Fluent in corporate strategy speak. Youve communicated business priorities and key initiatives to employee-facing audiences and made them feel invested in the organizations success.
• Matrixed-org ninja. Youve navigated silos and stakeholders with grace, influence, and a firm grasp on what moves the needle.
• Deck-savvy and newsletter-ready. You think in slides, build clean narratives, and can launch internal newsletters from scratch team members read and look forward to.
• Systems builder, not slot-filler. Youve stood up repeatable workflows, templates, asset libraries, and editorial rhythmsbecause ad-hoc chaos just isnt your style and you dont wait around to be told what to do.
• Exceptionally high EQ. You pick up on subtle cues, anticipate needs before theyre spoken, and know how to read a room without saying a word.
• Established consultant. Ideally, youre already operating independently (or want to) and bring the polish, pace, and perspective of someone whos been brought in to make things better.

You should take this meeting because

This is a high-impact, remote consulting role that will help shape the future of digital innovation inside a renowned media company. Youll work closely with a powerhouse CDO, owning how the org communicates with the board, C-suite, and its 8,000+ employees.

If you're the kind of consultant who thinks in slides, can see the internal comms story three moves ahead, and knows how to turn a technical win into a companywide ""hell yes""then this is your moment. Get in touch with us today!
