Responsibilities

• Strategic Leadership: Drive end-to-end communications strategy from development through launch and beyond, managing messaging, campaigns, and issues management.
• Hands-On Media Relations: Personally pitch and secure coverage across trade, business, and entertainment media. Leverage an existing, deep network of press relationships to shape narratives from day one.
• Slate Storytelling: Develop horizontal, multi-title narratives (e.g., genre trends, franchise milestones, industry impact) that connect individual titles to broader cultural conversations about Netflix.
• Creative Campaigning: Craft compelling brand narratives and pitches that help titles cut through the cultural noise; identify non-traditional story angles via social, fandom, and cultural moments.
• Cross-Functional Partnership: Partner with creative executives, production, marketing, and legal teams to shape long-term strategy and provide expert counsel.
• Risk Mitigation: Identify and manage brand and communications risks, including sensitive reactive situations (cancellations, HR issues, controversial content), with sound judgment under pressure.
• Executive & Talent Management: Secure and coordinate executive, creator, and talent interviews, press tours, panels, and speaking opportunities.

Requirements

• 10+ years of experience in communications at an agency, studio, or network, ideally within entertainment or media.
• Proven track record leading proactive and reactive communications strategy for scripted television, film, or comparable premium content.
• Demonstrated success building multi-title, “slate” or franchise-level narratives — not just single-title campaigns — that tie to broader cultural, economic, or industry storylines.
• Deep, established, and active relationships across trade, business, entertainment, consumer, and new, emerging media. A proven, personal track record of pitching, securing, and shaping press coverage.
• Skilled storyteller who can distill complex or sensitive situations into clear, compelling narratives and effective press pitches.
• Sound judgment on brand and communications risk; steady under pressure and comfortable navigating ambiguity.
• Strong cross-functional collaborator who partners well with creative, legal, marketing, and publicity teams.
• Exceptional written and verbal communication skills, meticulous organization, and the ability to manage a high volume of complex, concurrent projects.
• A curious, ambitious self-starter with a genuine point of view on what defines culture.
