Colt Technology Services to connect them with exceptional professionals for this role.

Colt provides network, voice and data centre services to thousands of businesses around the world, allowing them to focus on delivering their business goals instead of the underlying infrastructure.

Why we need this role

As we align our organisation to our ambitious new strategy, how we communicate at a global level - through the stories we tell, the messages we prioritise, and the experiences we create - has never been more important.

This role sits at the centre of how we bring our strategy to life, owning the global narrative, shaping our biggest moments, and ensuring colleagues understand, believe in, and act on our direction.

You will own and steward Colt’s global narrative, ensuring a single, coherent story across functions, countries, and leadership teams.

You will lead our flagship global communications programmes, making sure they are well‑orchestrated, high‑impact, and aligned to our strategic priorities.

Reporting into the Head of Internal Communications, this role complements our business partnering model by delivering consistency, quality and impact at a global level, connecting functional storytelling into a single, compelling enterprise narrative.

What You Will Do

You’ll lead the development and delivery of global communications programmes and the strategic content that underpins them.

You’ll work closely with the Head of IC and senior stakeholders to translate business strategy into clear, engaging messaging and content that works across different regions, functions, and audiences.

You’ll own the content and creative approach for major global moments including company‑wide initiatives, strategic updates and global events - making sure they are well‑crafted, consistent, and resonate with colleagues.
