Summary: 

The Director, Corporate Communications is responsible for shaping and stewarding the enterprise communications strategy of Mission Critical Group (MCG), with an emphasis on the internal voice that aligns employees across every operating company and manufacturing site. Reporting to the SVP, People and Business Services and partnering closely with the CEO, executive team, HR, Marketing, and operating company leaders, this role owns the strategy, messaging architecture, and executive voice that keep a rapidly growing, multi-site industrial organization aligned, informed, and engaged. The Director leads the internal communications function, sets the editorial direction for all-hands meetings and executive messages, owns change-management and M&A integration communications, designs MCG’s corporate social responsibility platform, and partners with the Director, Marketing on the boundary where employee, customer, and market audiences meet. This is a builder role for a senior practitioner who can both set the strategy and personally produce the highest-stakes messages on behalf of the CEO and executive team.

Accountabilities:

• Enterprise communications strategy. Develop and own MCG’s enterprise corporate communications strategy, messaging architecture, and annual editorial calendar across MCG and its operating companies (MCFI, JTS, Point Eight Power, DVM, and newly acquired businesses). Translate business strategy into clear narratives that resonate from the executive suite to the production floor.

• Executive & leadership communications. Serve as the primary communications advisor and ghostwriter to the CEO and executive team. Draft and edit leadership messages, town hall scripts, talking points, video scripts, board-ready written updates, and high-stakes employee announcements. Coach senior leaders on message clarity, tone, audience, and executive presence.

• Change management & M&A integration. Partner with HR and the corporate development team to design and lead the employee communications strategy for acquisitions, organizational changes, restructurings, and integrations. Welcome new employees joining MCG through M&A, manage sensitive change announcements, and ensure consistent narrative through every phase of integration.

• Culture, engagement & employer brand. Translate MCG’s six core behaviors — Have Humanity, Be Transparent, Drive Innovation, Be Resilient, Always Reliable, and Grit — into stories, recognition moments, and campaigns that reinforce culture at every site. Own the employer-brand narrative MCG carries into employee engagement, talent attraction, and retention work.

• Corporate social responsibility & community impact. Design and lead MCG’s enterprise CSR platform, including community impact, employee giving and volunteering, sustainability storytelling, and published CSR/sustainability reporting. Build the framework, governance, and measurement that turn CSR into a durable program rather than a series of events.

• Town hall production & executive events. Lead the planning, content development, and live production execution of company town halls, all-hands meetings, leadership forums, and executive broadcasts. Own run-of-show, scripting, speaker coaching, vendor management, AV production, livestreams, rehearsals, and post-event communications to deliver polished, engaging experiences at scale.

• Channel & content governance. Set the strategy and governance for MCG’s internal channel mix: intranet/SharePoint, email newsletters, digital signage on plant floors, Microsoft Teams and collaboration tools, all-hands meetings, and leader cascades. Define standards, voice, and the editorial review process; ensure the right message reaches the right audience through the right channel.

• Cross-functional partnership with Marketing. Partner with the Director, Marketing/External Communications on the boundary between internal and external audiences, including coordinated campaign rollouts, executive thought leadership, employer brand, M&A announcements that touch both audiences, and crisis communications. Maintain a shared messaging architecture so MCG sounds like one company to employees, customers, and the market.

• Measurement & continuous improvement. Define KPIs for corporate communications (reach, readership, sentiment, engagement, CSR participation, executive message resonance). Report results quarterly to the executive team and use data to iterate on strategy, channels, and programs.

• Team leadership & vendor management. Lead and develop the Internal Communications Specialist and any future communications team members. Manage outside agencies, designers, writers, and production vendors to scale output without unnecessary headcount.

• Have Humanity: You lead with empathy. You remember that every all-hands message, integration announcement, and CSR campaign reaches real people across factories and offices, each with their own context, questions, and concerns, and you set a standard that meets them where they are.
• Be Transparent: You help MCG’s leaders say what needs to be said — clearly, honestly, and in plain language. You push back on jargon and corporate-speak, surface the “why” behind decisions, and build channels where employees trust that information is flowing both ways.
• Drive Innovation: You bring fresh thinking to how a multi-site industrial company communicates and shows up as a corporate citizen. You experiment with new channels, formats, and CSR partnerships, and you use data to double down on what works and retire what doesn’t.
• Be Resilient: You keep communications moving through acquisitions, reorganizations, crisis moments, and competing executive priorities. You adapt tone and channel as the situation demands without losing message discipline, and you stay calm under a tight turnaround.
• Always Reliable: You own the editorial calendar and deliver on deadline, every time. Leaders trust that your drafts are accurate, on-brand, and ready to send; employees trust that the next update will arrive when promised; CSR partners trust that MCG follows through on its commitments.
• Grit: You do the unglamorous work that makes great corporate communications invisible: chasing down the subject-matter expert, rewriting the CEO’s draft for the fifth time, proofreading before the company all-hands, and showing up on the plant floor to hear how the message actually landed.

Required Knowledge/Experience:

• 10+ years of progressive experience in corporate communications, internal communications, or executive communications, with at least 3 years leading a function or team, ideally within a multi-site industrial, manufacturing, or engineering-driven organization.
• Demonstrated experience building and running enterprise internal communications programs across a distributed, frontline-heavy employee base (office plus plant floor).
• Track record designing and managing a Corporate Social Responsibility, community impact, or employee giving/volunteering program at enterprise scale, including published CSR or sustainability reporting.
• Exceptional writing, editing, and storytelling skills across formats — executive messages, scripts, video, intranet, email, digital signage, and leader talking points.
• Strong executive presence and the ability to serve as a trusted communications advisor and ghostwriter to a CEO and senior leadership team.
• Experience leading employee communications for M&A integrations, organizational change, sensitive announcements, and crisis events.
• Experience partnering with Marketing or External Communications counterparts on aligned campaigns, employer brand, executive thought leadership, and unified messaging across internal and external audiences.
• Proficiency with modern communications tools and channels (intranet/SharePoint, Microsoft Teams, email marketing platforms, digital signage, video editing or production coordination, analytics platforms).
• Bachelor’s degree in Communications, Journalism, Public Relations, English, Marketing, or a related field; equivalent experience considered.

Preferred: experience in a PE-backed or high-growth, acquisitive environment; familiarity with the data center, power, energy, or critical infrastructure sectors; experience managing or developing junior communications talent.
