Job description

About The Role

As Senior Spokesperson, Technology & Innovation (f/m/d), you will act as Siemens’ senior global spokesperson and media relations expert for industrial technologies, engineering innovation and foundational technology development.

As Senior Spokesperson, Technology & Innovation (f/m/d), you will act as Siemens’ senior global spokesperson and media relations expert for industrial technologies, engineering innovation and foundational technology development.

Your purpose will be to position Siemens externally as a leading global technology company that combines the real and digital worlds – and to show how industrial technology moves from foundational development into real products, systems, engineering workflows, factories, infrastructure and customer applications.

A major part of the role will be executive-linked technology positioning. You will work directly with Siemens Managing Board members, senior technology executives and their teams to position Siemens’ industrial technology and innovation story through strong narratives, interviews, background conversations, thought leadership, opinion pieces and major technology moments. You will combine strategic advice, sharp editorial judgment and hands‑on execution.

As part of our team, you will have

• A dynamic and international work environment where you can make a significant impact.
• Opportunities for continuous learning and professional development.
• A culture that values innovation, collaboration and diversity.
• A competitive compensation and benefits package.

Since each of over 300,000 team members feels that other benefits are particularly important, and we cannot list our entire benefit portfolio here, you can find more information here.

The individual benefits are subject to regulatory, contractual, or corporate conditions.

Make a difference

• You will make Siemens’ broader technology leadership tangible for external audiences – turning complex engineering and innovation into stories that show why these technologies matter for industry, customers and competitiveness.
• Develop and drive distinctive global media narratives that connect Siemens’ key industrial technologies with broader strategic themes such as digital engineering, software‑defined industry and the convergence of the real and digital worlds.
• Connect foundational R&D and pre‑development activities with applied industrial technologies, showing how reusable technologies become products, systems, factories, infrastructure solutions and customer value.
• Use tangible proof points such as products, prototypes, partnerships and applications in factories, buildings, grids, data centers and transportation systems to substantiate Siemens’ technology story.
• Support senior leaders in positioning Siemens’ technology and innovation story through strategic executive communications.
• Build and maintain trusted relationships with leading international technology, business, industrial and innovation journalists, including both top‑tier general business media and specialist technology and industrial outlets.
• Proactively identify opportunities for feature stories, interviews, background conversations, technology deep dives and high‑impact media moments around Siemens technologies, customers, partnerships and experts.
• Create alignment across global Media Relations, Foundational Technologies, Siemens Technology, businesses, regions, executive communications, product teams, Strategy, Marketing, customers and partners – without relying on formal authority.

Education

• Master's degree or equivalent qualification, ideally in communications, business administration, political science, economics, or a related field.

Experience & skills

• Many years of senior professional experience in Media Relations, corporate communications, executive communications or journalism, ideally in an international technology, industrial, business or financial context.
• Strong track record in international media positioning, including work with leading global technology, business, financial or policy outlets.
• Proven ability to support senior executives and their teams in translating strategic technology priorities into credible media narratives, strong messages and high‑visibility positioning opportunities.
• Strong understanding of industrial technology, engineering, software and manufacturing across the technology lifecycle.
• Excellent editorial judgment and writing skills, with the ability to turn technical substance into clear, differentiated and newsworthy stories for international media.
• Strong existing network among relevant technology, business, financial and policy journalists, particularly in international and U.S. media ecosystems.
• Confidence in handling sensitive, fast‑moving and high‑visibility topics with accuracy, discretion and a clear view of reputation impact.
• Strong ability to build trust across senior stakeholders, expert communities and global communications teams while staying focused on external impact.

Ways of working

• Intellectually curious and comfortable engaging deeply with engineers, technologists and product experts.
• Highly collaborative, skilled at navigating complex global stakeholder environments and comfortable influencing across cultures and seniority levels.
• Able to move easily between a laboratory, a factory floor, a Board briefing and a conversation with a top‑tier journalist.

Languages

• Excellent written and spoken English is essential.
• German is highly desirable; additional languages are an advantage in Siemens’ global media and business environment.
