B2B Communications Director (Dow Jones Energy)

Join Dow Jones Energy as the Director of Communications, a pivotal role during a period of significant growth and investment. You will be responsible for building the communications infrastructure, strategy, and narrative for this critical part of the Dow Jones portfolio. As a key member of the global communications team, you will serve as the dedicated communications partner for Energy leadership and subject matter experts, while working closely with the London-based B2B Communications Director. This is an individual contributor role, but you will act as a "player-coach," orchestrating resources from across the global communications team to execute high-impact campaigns.

• Architect and launch a comprehensive global communications strategy for Dow Jones Energy, aligning messaging across diverse sectors including oil, chemicals, sustainability, renewables and electric vehicles (EVs).
• Identify, train and position key subject matter experts and business leaders as industry-leading voices for market-moving insights. Manage their profiles at major industry events and across digital platforms.
• Build and maintain high-level relationships with key energy and commodities journalists and broadcast producers to secure consistent, high-quality coverage of our data and experts.
• You bring strong B2B experience, excellent news judgment and the ability to translate complex topics and datasets into clear, compelling narratives for external and internal audiences
• Ability to work in our London Bridge office at least 3 days each week
• Demonstrated experience leading a communications portfolio encompassing media relations, executive profiling, thought leadership, social media, and internal communications to drive business goals
• Exceptional interpersonal skills with a track record of leading by influence, managing stakeholders in a matrixed environment and mobilizing team resources you do not directly manage
• Masterful writing and editing skills with the ability to turn technical market analysis into clear, impactful prose for a global audience
• A strong desire to be a key driver of an exciting transformation and growth story for Dow Jones Energy
• 12+ years of professional B2B experience in corporate communications and public relations (Direct experience in the energy space including oil, chemicals, commodities, renewables, or other adjacent industries is preferred)
• Experience working across multiple time zones and cultures; ability to travel as needed to support global events and leadership
• Proven ability to thrive in a "blank canvas" environment—you are comfortable moving quickly, building processes where none exist and driving projects from concept to completion
