The Community You Will Join:

The Communications team is responsible for telling the Airbnb story around the world.

The Difference You will Make:

The Senior Communications Lead, DACH & CEE will lead communications strategy in Germany while providing strategic oversight across the broader DACH region and select Central and Eastern European markets.

Reporting into the EMEA Communications Director, the role will strategically lead the DACH communications team, which is made up of a team of four people, including consumer, corporate comms, and an influencer manager focused on the region.

They will also have a history of delivering projects across cross-functional teams, taking a strategic leadership role and anticipating challenges. The right candidate will also be expected to demonstrate a working knowledge of how to translate a global brand proposition to a local audience across the DACH markets.

The successful candidate will have solid experience of creating internal advocacy among multiple senior audiences, as well as directing and inspiring a team of high performing communications professionals.
