• Demonstrate our economic impact. Build proactive corporate campaigns around our role creating economic opportunity. Lead communications for high-profile events, executive interviews, and public appearances
• Own our reputational storytelling globally. Design and execute programs that build our profile—and trust—among the core business audience as well as policymakers and the Washington press corps
• Build the next chapter of our policy communications function. Partner closely with our policy team to develop a clear point of view on industry, regulatory, and policy-related topics, and amplify it through the right channels. Establish relationships with the right journalists and influencers in policy and tech, thought leaders in AI, crypto, and tech policy, rapid response capabilities, and a well-tuned approach for navigating the full range of political and regulatory moments that arise in D.C.
• Provide executive counsel. Serve as a trusted advisor to senior executives on communications strategy. Bring clear judgment to ambiguous situations, help Stripe navigate the moments it didn't anticipate, and help it seize the ones it did
Requirements
We're looking for someone who meets the minimum requirements to be considered for the role. If you meet these requirements, you are encouraged to apply. The preferred qualifications are a bonus, not a requirement.
Minimum requirements
• 10+ years of professional experience in strategic communications, tech PR, policy communications, or an equivalent high-growth operator role (e.g., as a former founder)
• A superlative writer with a proven ability to create clear, compelling narratives around complex, high-stakes topics
• Excellent judgment in ambiguous, high-pressure situations, with the ability to operate with significant autonomy and make consequential decisions quickly
• Fluency in the tech media landscape—including an existing network of relationships with reporters, editors, and influencers in tech policy and business press
• Creative flair and an aversion to the hackneyed and obvious, and a high bar for what a communications program achieves
• An entrepreneurial streak—someone who is energized by the opportunity to build, not just manage
• Demonstrated ability to design and execute proactive communications campaigns—not just respond to incoming
• A track record of building something from scratch—whether a comms function, a narrative program, or a public-facing campaign—and iterating on it over time
• A feel for independent media—Substack, podcasts, YouTube, influencers on X—and how to use these channels to reach and shape conversations among policymakers and thought leaders
