About the Role

We are seeking a communications strategist to lead employee and executive communications for Intel's product-focused business units. This individual will serve as a trusted advisor to senior business and technical leaders, translate complex strategies into clear and compelling narratives, and develop communications that help employees understand business priorities, organizational changes and what those developments mean for their work.

Employee and senior leader communications are the primary focus; selective external executive communications will support business and technology priorities. The role requires exceptional writing, sound executive judgment, and the ability to deliver in a complex, fast-moving environment.

Responsibilities

Align cross-functional stakeholders on priority messages, communications approaches and audience needs. Identify the leaders, technical experts, channels and moments that can most effectively advance business objectives and technology strategy.
• Executive Communications and Content. Serve as a trusted communications advisor to senior business and technical leaders. Write and edit high‑stakes executive content for internal and selective external engagements, including presentations, talking points, employee messages, videos, Q and A materials and thought leadership. Prepare leaders for key moments while preserving an authentic voice and alignment with company messaging. Build a scalable leader communications support model, including processes, templates and tools that improve reach, consistency and execution quality.
• Organizational Alignment and Partnership. Develop employee communications strategies and content that clarify business priorities, leadership decisions, organizational changes and implications for employees. Lead communications for business transformation, organizational change and leadership transitions. Partner across Human Resources, Corporate and Product Communications, Analyst Relations, Marketing, Investor Relations, and other functions to align narratives, timing, and priorities. Design scalable communications programs, processes and tools that improve employee understanding, leader consistency, and execution quality.
• Measurement and Optimization. Define and track measures of employee understanding, engagement, and communications effectiveness. Use audience feedback and performance data to improve communications strategy, clarity, consistency, and reach.

Candidate Profile

The ideal candidate is a seasoned communications professional with experience in technology, semiconductor, or similarly complex business environments, who brings a strong track record in organizational change, business transformation, and leadership transition communications. They possess sharp business acumen, connecting communications strategy to measurable outcomes, and can back it up with a compelling portfolio that showcases executive and employee communications as well as complex business and technology storytelling. Beyond their technical expertise, they are naturally curious, exercise sound judgment, and thrive working independently while effortlessly building trust with senior leaders and cross-functional partners.
