WHAT IS BOX?
Box (NYSE:BOX) is the leader in Intelligent Content Management. Our platform enables organizations to fuel collaboration, manage the entire content lifecycle, secure critical content, and transform business workflows with enterprise AI. We help companies thrive in the new AI-first era of business. Founded in 2005, Box simplifies work for leading global organizations, including AstraZeneca, JLL, Morgan Stanley, and Nationwide. Box is headquartered in Redwood City, CA, with offices across the United States, Europe, and Asia.

By joining Box, you will have the unique opportunity to continue driving our platform forward. Content powers how we work. It's the billions of files and information flowing across teams, departments, and key business processes every single day: contracts, invoices, employee records, financials, product specs, marketing assets, and more. Our mission is to bring intelligence to the world of content management and empower our customers to completely transform workflows across their organizations. With the combination of AI and enterprise content, the opportunity has never been greater to transform how the world works together and at Box you will be on the front lines of this massive shift.

WHY BOX NEEDS YOU:

Box is looking for a strategic, modern communicator to lead EMEA communications and elevate our brand across the region. Based in London, this role will own the storytelling and execution that drives awareness, engagement and trust in Box - the Intelligent Content Management platform. We've grown significantly in EMEA since launching in 2012, with teams in London, Paris, Amsterdam, Munich and Warsaw. Now, as we accelerate our expansion, we need a seasoned communications leader who understands the European landscape and can help us shape the conversation around content and AI.

You'll work directly with EMEA leadership, go-to-market teams and the global communications team to design and deliver impactful campaigns. From thought leadership and media strategy to exec comms and brand moments, you'll be responsible for making Box's voice resonate with the audiences who matter - customers, media and influencers.

This is a high-impact, hands-on role. You'll need to move fast, think ahead and adapt in real time. You'll bring and build strong media relationships, craft compelling narratives, and turn complex product innovation - especially around our AI-powered capabilities - into stories that cut through across EMEA's Tier 1 markets of UK&I, DACH and France.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

• Partner with global communications and EMEA GTM teams to define and deliver the EMEA communications strategy that builds Box's brand, drives awareness and reinforces leadership in Intelligent Content Management.
• Build and maintain strong relationships with national, business and tech media across EMEA to secure meaningful coverage of Box's innovation, leadership and customer wins.
• Develop and lead executive communications for the EMEA GM, including social media, speaking opportunities and internal engagement. Support programs for regional spokespeople in France and DACH.
• Provide full-spectrum communications support for the EMEA GM, including internal comms/engagements, thought leadership, social media and speaking opportunities.
• Shape Box's external narrative in EMEA and ensure consistent, compelling messaging across all touchpoints and markets.
• Collaborate with EMEA Marketing to plan and execute sponsored content programmes that reach priority audiences and expand regional awareness.
• Work closely with Customer Advocacy to identify and showcase customer stories that demonstrate Box's value and ROI.
• Support major brand moments and events, including BoxWorks London, with content development, speaker preparation and media engagement.
• Manage and mentor one direct report and lead agency partners across key EMEA markets to deliver high-impact results.
• Actively partner with Global Comms, Go-to-Market teams, and key functions - including People, Legal and Privacy - to support change communications, manage issues, and align messaging, timing and editorial strategy, especially around European regulatory issues.
• Track and report on communications performance, using insights to refine strategy and improve effectiveness.
• Contribute as a member of the EMEA Marketing leadership team, helping drive integrated strategy and cross-functional alignment.

WHO YOU ARE

• Experience working with global cloud, AI, security and/or SaaS companies either in-house or at an agency.
• A strategic thinker and tactical doer with a "make it happen" mindset.
• A deep interest in AI and how it will impact every business across the planet.
• Exceptional attention to detail, great writer, and proven project management skills.
• Bias for action and ability to execute quickly while juggling multiple deliverables.
• Strong understanding of modern marketing principles and best practices, including non-traditional media and influencers.
• Adaptable and flexible - comfortable in fast-paced environments with a demonstrated ability to effectively manage time and prioritize tasks even amidst ambiguity.
• No ego - everyone pitches in to get the job done, even if it isn't in this JD.

REQUIRED SKILLS

• BA/BS degree or equivalent.
• 10+ years experience in relevant corporate communications experience at a global company.
