Job description

CUBE are a global RegTech business defining and implementing the gold standard of regulatory intelligence for the financial services industry. We deliver our services through intuitive SaaS solutions, powered by AI, to simplify the complex and everchanging world of compliance for our clients.

Why us?

CUBE is a globally recognized brand at the forefront of Regulatory Technology. Our industry-leading SaaS solutions are trusted by the world’s top financial institutions globally.

In 2024, we achieved over 50% growth, both organically and through two strategic acquisitions. We’re a fast-paced, high-performing team that thrives on pushing boundaries—continuously evolving our products, services, and operations. At CUBE, we don’t just keep up we stay ahead.

We believe our future is built by bold, ambitious individuals who are driven to make a real difference. Our “make it happen” culture empowers you to take ownership of your career and accelerate your personal and professional development from day one.

With over 700 CUBERs across 19 countries spanning EMEA, the Americas, and APAC, we operate as one team with a shared mission to transform regulatory compliance. Diversity, collaboration, and purpose are the heartbeat of our success.

We were among the first to harness the power of AI in regulatory intelligence, and we continue to lead with our cutting-edge technology. At CUBE, You will work alongside some of the brightest minds in AI research and engineering in developing impactful solutions that are reshaping the world of regulatory compliance.

This is a newly created position and a significant opportunity for an experienced PR professional to build and own the media relations function at one of the most interesting companies in the regtech space. You will be the first in-house dedicated PR hire at Cube, reporting directly to the CMO, and will be responsible for shaping how we tell our story to the media — in the UK, across Europe, and in key international markets including the US.

You will work closely with our leadership team to develop and execute a proactive media relations strategy, manage day-to-day press activity, and act as the primary point of contact for journalists covering financial technology, regulation, and banking. For specific campaign moments in certain markets, you will brief and manage specialist PR agency partners, ensuring CUBE’s story lands with the right publications and audiences.

This is a hands-on, individual contributor role. You will be comfortable operating independently, building relationships from scratch, and thriving in a fast-moving environment where the news agenda moves quickly and credibility with a specialist financial press is everything.

What You'll Do

• Develop and execute Cube's global media relations strategy, with a primary focus on UK and US financial, banking and regtech/fintech press
• Build and maintain strong, direct relationships with key journalists across target publications including the Financial Times, Bloomberg, Risk.net, WSJ, The Banker, American Banker, Waters Technology, Finextra and relevant trade titles
• Proactively identify and create media opportunities — from funding and product announcements to thought leadership, data stories and regulatory moments
• Serve as the primary media contact for Cube, managing all inbound press enquiries and coordinating responses with speed and accuracy
• Brief, manage and hold accountable a specialist US PR agency for campaign-based activity around key milestones
• Partner with the executive team to develop messaging, prepare spokespeople for media interviews and support leadership profiling
• Draft and edit press releases, media pitches, briefing documents and reactive statements
• Monitor the media landscape and regulatory news agenda to identify opportunities and flag reputational risks early
• Track and report on media coverage, maintaining a clear view of share of voice and coverage quality across target publications
• Work cross-functionally with marketing, product and the executive team to align PR activity with broader business priorities

What We're Looking For

• 7+ years of PR experience, with significant time spent in financial services, fintech or regtech - either in-house or at a specialist agency
• Deep understanding of the financial and banking media landscape, with established relationships at key publications in the UK and ideally the US
• Proven track record of securing high-quality, earned media coverage in tier-one financial and business press
• Strong writing skills - you can draft a compelling pitch, a clean press release or a crisp briefing document with equal confidence
• Experience managing or briefing external PR agencies and holding them accountable to outcomes
• Comfortable operating at pace in a complex, technical environment — you don't need to be a regulatory expert, but you need to be able to translate complexity into clear, credible narratives
• Self-starter who can own a brief end-to-end without needing significant support or infrastructure around them
• High integrity and strong news judgement — you know when to push a story and when to hold back

Nice to Have

• Experience working with or covering regtech, compliance technology or financial data
• Existing relationships with journalists at Waters Technology, Risk.net, American Banker or The Information's financial technology coverage
• Experience supporting executive profiling and thought leadership campaigns for C-suite spokespeople
• Familiarity with analyst relations in the financial technology space
