Senior Vice President, Corporate Communications at Teneo

San Francisco, United StatesFull-timeStrategy & Communications USPosted 8 days ago

About the Role

<h3>About Teneo </h3> Teneo is the global CEO advisory firm. We partner with our clients globally to do great things for a better future.     Drawing upon our global team and expansive network of senior advisors, we provide advisory services across our five business segments on a stand-alone or fully integrated basis to help our clients solve complex business challenges. Our clients include a significant number of the Fortune 100 and FTSE 100, as well as other corporations, financial institutions and organizations.     Our full range of advisory services includes strategic communications, investor relations, financial transactions and restructuring, management consulting, physical and cyber risk, organizational design, board and executive search, geopolitics and government affairs, corporate governance and ESG.     The firm has more than 1,800 employees located in 50+ offices around the world.     <h3>The Opportunity </h3> Teneo's San Francisco office is growing, and the Senior Vice President will be one of the people who shapes it. You will work with a small, senior team that helps technology companies through moments of significant transition. Our clients are also rethinking what communications means inside their companies, and this role gives you a front-row seat to that work. You will do excellent client work now and help build the office's reputation in the Bay Area over time. <h3>Who We're Looking For </h3> Someone who understands how technology companies work from the inside, especially dynamic startups and their founders. The strongest candidates have built or rebuilt something: a team, a function, a process, or a way of working. We value in-house experience at technology companies, and we also welcome agency and advisory professionals with deep tech-client experience who bring the same builder's mindset.
