About this opportunity
The External Communications Manager will join Ericsson Networks’ integrated external and internal communications team to strengthen employee engagement, build trust and strengthen preference for Ericsson as the leading provider of telecommunications networks.
It is an exciting time to join Ericsson as we build the Internet of Things on the 5G network, embed AI into our products, evolve to meet the changing needs of existing and potential customers, and envisage network evolution towards an AI-native 6G network.
What you will do
- Devise and implement a social media plan that elevates the voice of Networks’ senior leadership in the network evolution debate, communicates product capability to technical audiences and stimulates interest, understanding and trust among relevant influencer audiences.
- Create an AI-driven, social-first content programme that produces a regular cadence of high-quality content that amplifies news, celebrates achievements and engages target audiences with stimulating and accessible ideas.
- Support the delivery of a smooth flow of news and traditional media coverage, working with colleagues across the world to collate stories, prepare press releases, and brief trade media and executive spokespeople.
- Create and manage a data and intelligence engine that informs the team about upcoming opportunities and developments and how our content is performing.
The skills you bring
- 5+ years of proven experience in external communications or a related field.
- You are a digital native and excited about how communications content and channels are evolving. You have driven campaigns on social media and have a practical understanding of how social-media algorithms affect reach and engagement.
- You understand how large organisations communicate but you speak in a human way and avoid corporate language. You can write and create content in a way that is fresh and impactful.
- You are confident using AI tools to draft, edit and experiment. You see AI as a creative collaborator.
- You are confident using data to generate insights that provide a clear understanding of performance and help inform decisions.
- You are a self-starter who jumps into challenges, gets energized by solving problems, and is always looking for ways to level up how we communicate.
- You build strong relationships and genuinely enjoy working across teams to make great work happen.
- You bring good judgment, curiosity, and a willingness to jump in wherever the team needs you.
- You approach internal communications with the same vigour as you do external communications and you treat employees as important ambassadors who can share and amplify company messages
