Employee Engagement & Internal Communications

• Support the planning, development, and execution of internal meetings and all-hands events, bringing creative ideas to make these moments engaging, energizing, and impactful.
• Contribute to employee engagement and celebration initiatives, including recognition programs and events that strengthen team cohesion across diverse sites, finding inventive ways to make employees feel seen and connected regardless of location.

• Create compelling, imaginative content for internal channels - including newsletters, intranet, digital signage, and video - that celebrates excellence, safety achievements, sustainability milestones, and employee stories in ways that feel fresh, not formulaic.

• Partner with leadership to generate proactive internal and external content that highlights innovation, sustainability leadership, digital transformation, manufacturing excellence, and employee expertise.
• Bring stories to life through diverse and creative formats including social content, short-form video, photography, case studies, multimedia storytelling, and beyond - always thinking about how to reach audiences where they are and in formats they actually want to consume.
• Support collaboration with media relations and brand communications teams to identify earned media opportunities, industry events, and thought leadership platforms for leaders.
• Contribute creative concepts and fresh ideas that help the leadership team stand out, both internally and externally, as innovators and culture carriers within the organization.

Strategic Communications Planning & Project Management

• Manage and track multiple communications projects simultaneously with strong organizational skills and a bias for action, ensuring timely delivery, consistent quality, and alignment with broader communications strategy.
• Contribute to the development, implementation, and measurement of division-level communications plans, processes, and programs that support the leadership team in achieving their goals.
• Demonstrate an entrepreneurial mindset by proactively identifying new communication opportunities, emerging channels, and creative approaches to elevate the narrative - and then making them happen.
• Partner with leadership and subject matter experts on key initiatives including sustainability, industry transformation, safety excellence, and community engagement programs, translating complex topics into accessible and engaging communications.
• Act as a creative thought partner to leadership, bringing new ideas, formats, and perspectives that keep the communications program dynamic and forward-looking.
