TL;DR We’re hiring a Founding Communications Lead to shape how Listen shows up in the market — with customers, candidates, reporters, analysts, and the broader technology community. Listen is building the future of AI-powered customer understanding, and we need someone who can help polish and amplify the story we tell about ourselves. You’ll work directly with our Head of Marketing and leadership team to build Listen’s communications foundation across media, executive storytelling, announcements, employer brand, and internal and external narrative. This role is for a sharp, polished, high-judgment communications professional who knows how to turn company momentum into clear, credible stories. You’ll help us earn attention from tech and B2B media, prepare executives to tell the story well, and make sure our message is consistent across every important audience. This is a senior IC role with high ownership. You’ll likely replace much of what a PR agency would traditionally do, while building the communications function from the ground up. Min. 5–8 years in communications, PR, media relations, executive communications, journalism, or related roles. B2B SaaS communications experience is important. Agency PR or journalism experience is a plus. BACKGROUND Listen Labs is an AI-powered research platform that helps teams uncover insights from customer interviews in hours — not months. We help customers analyze conversations, surface themes, and make faster, smarter product decisions.
