What Impact You Will Have

You’ll own communications for our AI infrastructure stack at group level, working at the cutting edge of one of the most dynamic industries in tech — and helping us build that future the responsible way, driven by a strong green agenda at the heart of how we grow. As a senior communications leader with strong agency experience and deep expertise across technology, data centres, AI, infrastructure, data centres and/or cloud, you will define, shape, and amplify our global narrative. You bring a strong understanding of the hyperscaler landscape and broader ecosystem (including Nvidia), enabling you to engage credibly with our most important audiences. You will ensure that the global AI infrastructure story resonates with global stakeholders, including hyperscalers, media, analysts, and policymakers. Your work will localize global messaging to the EMEA, APAC and US market, proactively build reputation, and establish a trusted voice for the company in a complex and highly competitive environment. Combining strategic insight with hands-on execution, you will translate deep technical expertise into clear, compelling narratives that influence the market, strengthen our positioning, and drive engagement with priority audiences.

Role

In this role, you will define and amplify our global narrative, ensuring it resonates with US and global stakeholders and reflects local priorities, culture, and market realities. You will:

  • Shape and communicate the AI infrastructure & cloud story for business and tech media, analysts, regulators, and key customers, including hyperscalers.
  • Build and maintain proactive reputation programs that increase visibility, strengthen credibility, and differentiate the company in a competitive Global market.
  • Lead strategic messaging and narrative and content development for thought leadership, positioning the company as a trusted voice in AI infrastructure and data centre & cloud innovation.
  • Serve as the dedicated global point-person for issues and crisis communications, ensuring timely and effective responses to regulatory, political, or sensitive topics.
  • Influence internal and external audiences through compelling content, executive briefings, media engagement, and coordinated campaigns, driving measurable impact on brand perception and awareness.

What You’ll Do

  • Strategic Leadership: Develop and execute regional communications strategies aligned with global priorities. Lead tactical decision-making on message prioritization and narrative localization. Advise and partner closely with the Group CMO and regional General Managers on strategic communications and sensitive topics.
  • Media & Analyst Engagement: Build strong relationships with top-tier global business, tech, AI, and infrastructure journalists. Drive analyst relations, including briefings, content, and follow-ups. Translate complex technical AI infrastructure topics into compelling stories for different audiences.
  • Content & Brand: Produce regionally relevant content: thought leadership, case studies, executive talking points, and opinion pieces. Oversee Global marketing assets for alignment with global messaging. Establish repeatable processes, playbooks, and operational frameworks for communications execution.
  • Team, Budget & Agency Management: Initially operate as a senior individual contributor, expanding into a small comms team over time. Manage external PR, analyst relations, and potential public affairs agencies. Provide input and manage regional communications budgets and technology tools.
  • Crisis & Issue Management: Act as the primary global point-person for issues, regulatory scrutiny, and politically sensitive topics. Ensure rapid, strategic responses to unforeseen developments.
