Responsibilities

• News Engine: Drive a strategic news program that demonstrates momentum across Crusoe's data center development, energy, and real estate work — turning our buildout into a consistent cadence of high-impact moments.
• Media and Influencer Relations: Build and maintain direct relationships with journalists across infrastructure, energy, real estate, technology, and financial media. You must be able to pitch and place stories independently; we need a practitioner who can "hunt" and isn't solely reliant on agencies.
• Community & Stakeholder Engagement: Partner closely with our Public Affairs and Government Affairs teams to support community engagement in the markets where we build — ensuring local audiences, officials, and stakeholders understand Crusoe's investment and impact.
• Narrative Development: Partner with subject matter experts across DIG, Energy, and Real Estate to sharpen messaging — translating complex topics across site development, power, construction, and data center operations into compelling stories for a range of audiences.
• Thought Leadership: Work with Crusoe's bench of spokespeople to develop and place high-impact op-eds, keynote scripts, and social content that secures Crusoe's position as a leader in AI infrastructure development.
• Issues Management: Monitor the media and community landscape closely and coordinate timely, strategic responses to industry shifts, local dynamics, and challenges — protecting Crusoe's brand and reputation in a quickly shifting environment.
• Agency Management: Help manage our PR agency relationships day-to-day focused on your line of business — setting clear priorities, holding teams accountable to outcomes, and ensuring resources are deployed against the highest-value opportunities.
• Measurement: Own communications reporting. You will track coverage, share of voice, and program outcomes, using data to continuously improve strategy and demonstrate impact.

Requirements

• Experience: 7+ years in communications or public relations, with a demonstrated track record of securing press results at top-tier outlets.
• AI-First Mindset: You don’t just talk about AI; you use it daily. You have integrated AI into your workflows — from deploying agents to automate tasks to using LLMs for research and drafting — and you adopt new tools as they emerge.
• Media Relations Expert: You have real, working relationships with journalists and influencers. You know how to pitch, place, and protect a narrative on your own.
• Exceptional Writer: Especially in today’s AI-first world, your ability to write with nuance, clarity, and human insight is non-negotiable.
• High-Agency: You are comfortable executing with limited resources and high ambiguity. You proactively identify opportunities and build the plan without waiting for a roadmap.
• Collaborative & Low Ego: You know how to build trust across functions (DIG, Energy, Real Estate, Public Affairs, Legal) and move fast without stepping on toes. We’re a lean team with no room for egos.
• Results-Oriented: You are metrics-driven and accountable, with a track record of turning communications efforts into measurable business outcomes.

• Domain Expertise: Experience working in data center construction/development, energy, infrastructure, real estate, or AI industries is strongly preferred.
