Senior Communications Lead
(Maternity Leave Cover - 1 year)
We’re looking for a creative and hands-on Senior Communications Lead to join our ambitious Commercial Team at Digital i. This is an exciting opportunity for a communications professional who wants to make a real impact in a fast-growing company at the intersection of data, entertainment, and media.
You’ll take the lead on Digital i’s strategic storytelling and thought leadership, raising awareness of our industry-leading streaming measurement and further establishing Digital i as the leading provider of global streaming behavioral data. This role is ideal for someone with extensive press contacts and experience in the entertainment industry, specifically at the cross-section of entertainment and data.
The ideal candidate will already be familiar with key strategic shifts in the entertainment industry and perhaps a regular face on the events circuit across Europe and the US. The perfect person for this role will already understand how ethically-collected, high-quality viewing data empowers major global streamers and studios to find their niche in an ever-changing landscape.
You’ll work closely with the Marketing Lead as well as colleagues across sales, research, and leadership, ensuring a consistent and compelling message across every touchpoint, from the press to events to our in-house whitepapers. This role is initially a 12-month Mat Leave cover with the scope to transition into a permanent position as the team grows. Ideally, we would like this person to be able to spend time with your colleagues in our Bristol office; however, we can be flexible on location.
