About the Role

We’re looking for a Head of Internal Communications to shape how Phantom communicates, aligns, and rallies our people around where we’re going, how we’re going to win, and why their work matters.

Working directly with our three co-founders and executive team, you’ll serve as a strategic advisor on company-critical communications, translating complex strategies and decisions into compelling narratives that build clarity and conviction.

Beyond executive messaging, you’ll build the systems that bring those messages to life across the organization, equipping managers to engage their teams, strengthening two-way communication, and ensuring our most important messages truly resonate.

This is a highly strategic, hands-on opportunity for an exceptional storyteller with strong business instincts, the confidence to challenge senior leaders, and the drive to build a high-impact function from the ground up.

• Create mechanisms for two-way dialogue, ensuring managers can surface employee questions, address concerns, and reinforce understanding across their teams.

Drive Company-Wide Communications and Engagement

• Own the strategy and execution of All Hands, major company announcements, strategic updates, and other employee-facing communications.

• Develop engaging, accessible content that connects company performance, strategic priorities, and progress to employees’ day-to-day work.

• Identify opportunities to celebrate wins, recognize contributions, and reinforce the behaviors and values that make Phantom successful.

• Establish feedback loops to understand employee sentiment, identify where messages aren’t resonating, and surface emerging concerns to leadership.

• Measure communication effectiveness through employee understanding, manager readiness, and organizational alignment, using insights to continuously improve our approach.

• Evolve communication channels and formats to ensure information reaches employees effectively and encourages meaningful engagement.

What We’re Looking For

• 10+ years of experience in internal or executive communications, ideally within high-growth technology companies.

• Proven experience building and leading internal communications strategies, systems, and programs that drive company-wide alignment.

• Exceptional writing, storytelling, and communication skills, with the ability to make complex business topics clear, compelling, and memorable.

• Strong business acumen and the ability to quickly understand company strategy, competitive dynamics, and organizational priorities.

• Experience advising founders and senior executives, with the confidence, credibility, and judgment to challenge thinking and influence decisions.

• Strong organizational instincts and experience equipping managers to communicate effectively, navigate change, and reinforce company priorities.

• A proactive, hands-on approach with the ability to anticipate needs, navigate ambiguity, and move quickly from strategy to execution.
