CLEAR is seeking a Senior Manager of Communications to lead earned media strategy and execution for major company announcements, partnerships, and product launches. You will own the communications approach for CLEAR1, CLEAR+, and other priority business initiatives, building and maintaining relationships with national, business, technology, travel, and trade media outlets.
Key responsibilities include developing compelling narratives that turn business priorities into integrated communications plans, leading announcements from conception through flawless execution, and building scalable processes that make CLEAR's communications function increasingly proactive. You'll coordinate messaging, write press materials, pitch stories to media, prepare spokespeople, and manage internal and external stakeholders across multiple high-priority workstreams.
Success is measured by the quality, relevance, and reach of earned media coverage; share of voice and positive sentiment around CLEAR's priority products and partnerships; awareness and consideration generated by campaigns; and consistent execution against the communications calendar.
You bring 8+ years of communications, public relations, or media relations experience with a proven track record of developing and executing high-impact announcements and earned media strategies. You have exceptional media relations instincts, strong reporter relationships, and the ability to identify compelling stories in a rapidly changing media landscape. You excel at strategic storytelling—understanding complex business objectives, finding the narrative within them, and reaching the right audiences through the right channels.
You operate as both a builder and a doer, energized by creating new processes and strategies while remaining comfortable writing press releases, pitching stories, and owning execution details. You demonstrate cross-functional leadership, excellent judgment, and the ability to create clarity among senior leaders, business teams, and external partners while managing evolving priorities. You have curiosity and excitement about leveraging AI to accelerate communications outcomes and performance.
