Executive Communications Lead

Why Mozilla?

Mozilla Corporation is the non-profit-backed technology company that has shaped the internet for the better over the last 25 years, making pioneering brands like Firefox, the privacy-minded web browser. With more than 225 million people using its products each month, Mozilla is shaping the next 25 years of technology and helping to reclaim an internet built for people, not companies. Mozilla Corporation is wholly owned by the non-profit Mozilla Foundation, so it isn’t beholden to any shareholders — only to its mission.

About the Role

Mozilla is looking for a Head of Executive Communications to lead how its senior leaders show up in the world. This is a role for someone who has experience working directly with a CEO, thinks strategically, writes exceptionally well, has strong project management skills and understands how to translate complex ideas into narratives that move people and shape debates.

You will own executive visibility and thought leadership for Mozilla's CEO and leadership team, working closely with the wider Communications team, Product teams and Public Policy to position leaders as authoritative, credible voices on the issues that define the future of the internet. You will report into the Director of Corporate Communications.

What You'll Do

• Own the executive communications function: develop and drive a proactive, strategic approach to how Mozilla's CEO and senior leadership team are seen and heard externally.
• Prepare executives for high-stakes engagements: major interviews, keynotes, regulatory testimony, crisis moments, and industry forums.
• Build and manage a proactive, strategic executive visibility calendar aligned to Mozilla's goals.
• Write, develop, and refine speeches, keynote remarks, op-eds, briefing documents, talking points, and interview preparation materials.
• Act as a consistent partner to the executives you support, understanding their voice and expertise and marrying both to Mozilla's corporate objectives.
• Partner with Communications, Public Policy, Marketing and other teams to keep executive communications consistent with Mozilla's broader narrative, policy positions, and product moments.
• Develop a thought leadership strategy on AI and the future of the web, privacy and digital rights, open source, competition, and technology in the public interest.
• Coordinate with external agencies and freelance writers where needed, maintaining a high editorial bar.

What You’ll Bring

• 8–12+ years of experience in communications, with a significant focus on executive communications, speechwriting, or thought leadership, ideally in technology, policy, or mission-driven organisations.
• Direct experience working at CEO level and the ability to build trust with senior stakeholders quickly.
• Exceptional writing skills — clear, quick, and in other people's voices.
• A track record of preparing senior executives for high-stakes external engagements.
• Strong editorial judgement on both issues and drafts.
• Experience at the intersection of technology, policy, and public interest.
• Comfort with complexity and nuance, and genuine mission alignment.

What Will Help You Stand Out

• Global or multilingual experience, such as coordinating across regions or working with international press.
• Policy or public affairs exposure on issues like privacy, security, AI, and competition.

Benefits

• Performance-based bonus plans
• Rich medical, dental, and vision coverage
• Generous retirement contributions with 100% immediate vesting
• Quarterly all-company wellness days
• Country-specific holidays plus a day off for your birthday
• One-time home office stipend
