If you're ready to lead change, tell meaningful stories, and make a global impact—we want to hear from you.
Your experience:
- Proven experience in communications, campaigns, or public affairs, ideally within digital finance, development or consumer rights.
- Strong writing, editing and storytelling skills across long-form and digital formats.
- Experience producing virtual and in-person events.
- Ability to translate technical concepts into clear, engaging messages for diverse audiences.
