The Role

We're seeking a Communications Manager to serve as a hands-on executor across media relations, partner go-to-market communications, and executive support. Reporting to the Senior Director of Communications, you'll transform product milestones and partner launches into polished press materials, pitch stories to tier-1 outlets, coordinate cross-functional approvals, and maintain our communications engine.

Key Responsibilities

• Pitch and secure coverage across mainstream, tier-1, and industry outlets to position MoonPay as a globally recognized brand
• Own the end-to-end press release lifecycle—drafting, internal review, legal approval, partner sign-off, and wire distribution via PR Newswire
• Build and maintain MoonPay's media contact network, proactively sourcing journalists and cultivating relationships to drive future coverage
• Field inbound press inquiries, coordinating with subject-matter experts to provide timely, accurate responses
• Track and compile comprehensive media coverage reports and visibility metrics
• Write supporting content including blog posts for MoonPay's Newsroom
• Source, draft, and assist with award nominations and industry list submissions
• Prepare briefing documents and talking points for executives ahead of conference panels, fireside chats, and media interviews
• Support speaker logistics for events—registrations, scheduling, and coordination with organizers
• Coordinate cross-functionally across time zones with product, partnerships, legal, and leadership on messaging and announcement timing
• Manage PR tools and vendor platform relationships
• Maintain GTM pipeline tracker and flag scheduling conflicts or dependencies

What We're Looking For

• 4–6 years of experience in journalism, communications, or PR

Note: Research shows women apply less frequently when they don't match 100% of requirements. We encourage applications at 75%+ alignment—skills are learnable, diversity cannot be.
