Your Impact You will serve as a strategic communications thought partner for the office, shaping the overall communications strategy to support employee engagement, office initiatives and executive communications. You will build and manage an integrated communications calendar, produce flagship internal newsletters and office-wide updates, design and execute communications campaigns for priority themes like Centennial and Values Day, and support communications for major employee events and culture-building moments.

Your work also amplifies practice successes, toolkits, bespoke tools, playbooks, client impact stories, alumni efforts, and community initiatives, actively surfacing stories that demonstrate client impact, community contribution, innovation, and office momentum.
