Key responsibilities include:
**Communications Leadership & Foundation Voice**

Lead full-cycle domain campaign creation and execution across Education, Media, Technology, and Governance. Monitor and analyze local, regional, and sector-specific media environments using media intelligence tools. Coordinate regional agency work focused on social topics. Implement data-driven evaluation frameworks using modern approaches (e.g., AMEC Integrated Evaluation Framework) to measure PR success beyond vanity metrics.
**Partnerships & Stakeholder Relations**
Build and systematize the Foundation's partnership office with structured approaches to partner acquisition, relationship management, and stewardship. Establish partnership opportunities for Alternativa, Aurora, inVision U, and other initiatives. Coordinate CRM systems to track partner history and engagement metrics.

Strong network within specialist and niche media relevant to education, governance, media literacy, or community development. Excellent writing, storytelling, and editorial skills with ability to maintain distinctive institutional voice. Experience coordinating decentralized teams or networks of contributors.
