- Build and run an integrated comms program across podcasts, speaking opportunities, events, owned content, social media, and press to grow Mercury’s reputation in AI and innovation.
- Identify and secure high-impact podcast, conference, and media opportunities that put our leaders in front of customers, prospects, talent, and investors.
- Lead comms for product and AI launches in partnership with product marketing, ensuring every launch ladders up to a cohesive innovation story.
- Cultivate relationships with tech, AI, and startup journalists, creators, and podcast hosts.
- Create and edit content such as blog posts, executive social posts, talks, and briefing docs, and coach spokespeople to deliver them with confidence.
- Keep a pulse on the AI and fintech landscape, spotting trends, competitive moves, and moments where Mercury can lead the conversation.
