At Freddie Mac, our mission of Making Home Possible is what motivates us, and it’s at the core of everything we do. Since our charter in 1970, we have made home possible for more than 90 million families across the country. Join an organization where your work contributes to a greater purpose.

Position Overview:

At Freddie Mac, you’ll do important work that supports our mission to make home possible for millions of families. Our Strategic Operations group within the Single-Family Seller Engagement team is seeking an experienced business communications partner to help leaders drive clarity, alignment, and engagement around division priorities. In this role, you will translate strategy into clear, actionable messages and executive-ready materials that support day-to-day decision-making, divisional communications, and event planning and execution.

Our Impact:

Our team is a group of experienced communicators that collaborate across Freddie Mac to ensure alignment with business priorities and deliver with excellence. We do this by:

• Applying business communications expertise in a mission-driven, matrixed environment, including executive-ready materials that support day-to-day decision-making, divisional communications, leadership visibility, and high-priority events and engagements.
• Providing exposure to Single-Family priorities, products, and operating rhythms to develop credible, business-fluent communications that resonate with stakeholders.
• Fostering an inclusive environment that values partnership, curiosity, and continuous improvement, while expecting strong ownership, sound judgment, and high-quality execution.
• Encouraging both tactical excellence and strategic judgment, balancing speed, accuracy, and stakeholder expectations while keeping communications aligned to business priorities and outcomes.

Your Impact:

In this role you will help Single-Family leaders communicate with purpose and precision, turning complex work into clear narratives, creating executive-ready materials, and keeping teams aligned to what matters most. You’ll be expected to manage communications assignments and day-to-day workstreams with limited direction, anticipate stakeholder needs, and deliver polished materials that support leadership visibility, strengthen internal alignment, and enable effective execution.

• Independently draft and refine tailored executive-ready communications and leader engagement materials for specific audiences and forums such as conferences, town halls, advisory boards, and internal/external engagements. These materials include talking points, briefs, remarks, Q&A, presentations, leader emails, bios, headshots, briefing materials, and readiness support.
• Own and maintain divisional message frameworks and scalable content, including key themes, FAQs, leader narratives, and reusable messaging, to ensure consistency and speed across priority initiatives.
• Manage planning, event logistics, content coordination, run-of-show materials, communications support, speaker readiness, and follow-up messaging for key divisional events.
• Plan, develop, and deliver core internal communications for Single-Family, including newsletters, leader updates, meeting recaps, intranet posts, and event communications that help teams understand the “why,” “what,” and “what’s next” and support adoption across the division.
• Collaborate across Strategic Operations and partner teams when division priorities require broader campaign or communications support, ensuring content, timing, stakeholder engagement, and execution align to business needs.
• Work cross-functionally (strategy, product, sales, risk, operations) to gather inputs and produce concise, accurate content for multiple channels and formats.
• Track effectiveness through practical measures (reach, engagement, leader feedback, and action completion) and use insights to improve clarity, cadence, and impact.

Qualifications:

• At least 7 years of experience supporting senior leaders with executive writing, internal communications, business communications, marketing communications, or related communications work in a complex organization.
• Bachelor’s degree in Communications, Journalism, Marketing, English, or related field, preferred.
• Exceptional writing, editing, and storytelling skills, with the ability to translate complex topics into clear, engaging communications.
• Proficiency with Microsoft Office Suite, with exceptional PowerPoint expertise.
• Experience supporting executive events, town halls, conferences, advisory boards, or large-scale internal meetings.
• Demonstrated ability to consult with stakeholders, understand business context quickly, manage work independently, and deliver timely, executive-ready materials in a fast-paced, matrixed environment.
• Strong project management and organizational skills, with relentless attention to detail and the ability to independently manage multiple priorities, tasks, and deadlines.
• Financial services or highly regulated industry experience preferred.

Keys to Success in this Role:

• Business-fluent communicator who can turn strategy, data, and complex topics into clear narratives and practical messages.
• Trusted partner to senior leaders and stakeholders—able to manage communications needs independently, influence with sound judgment, and bring a calm, solutions-oriented approach.
• Highly collaborative, detail-oriented, and comfortable navigating ambiguity while independently managing multiple priorities and tight deadlines.
• Manage assignments and workstreams independently in a fast-paced environment
