Senior Communications Manager

The Senior Communications Manager is a newly created role responsible for establishing and delivering ARRISE Live’s internal communications strategy, alongside leading its day-to-day external communications.

A key initial priority will be to build a comprehensive internal communications framework that defines what information employees receive, through which channels and when. This will include a clear approach to audience segmentation, communication sequencing and the use of Moonstar alongside other employee channels across international locations, functions and working patterns.

Working closely with the PR Director, senior leadership, HR and operational teams, the successful candidate will develop communications that support business priorities, strengthen the ARRISE Live identity and protect its reputation.

The role will combine strategic planning with hands-on delivery across corporate messaging, employee communications, content development, website oversight, social media coordination and media support. It requires someone who can translate complex business developments into clear, relevant communications, manage competing priorities and work confidently with stakeholders across multiple international markets.

• Work with Legal, Compliance, HR and operational stakeholders to ensure communications are accurate, appropriately approved and aligned with business requirements.
• Monitor relevant media coverage, industry developments and emerging issues, promptly escalating potential reputational and communications risks to the PR Director.

• 6+ years' experience in corporate communications, public relations, internal communications or a related communications discipline.
• Proven experience creating and implementing an internal communications strategy from the outset, including audience segmentation, channel planning, governance and measurement.
• Experience planning communications for an international workforce across multiple locations, functions and working patterns, including studio-based, frontline or shift-working employees.
