Head Of Global Media Relations
Join us in this role where you’ll lead and elevate our global press agenda and serve as a trusted advisor to the C-suite on reputation, risk, and public positioning.
Welcome to Global Communications
You’ll be part of Global Communications – Media Relations where you, together with your colleagues, will own Ørsted’s global media strategy and act as the company’s senior counsel on high-stakes communications in media — from financial milestones and regulatory matters to crises, transactions, and industry debates.
As a team, we operate at the heart of executive decision-making, advising senior leadership in real time and ensuring the company’s voice is consistent, credible and compelling across markets.
You’ll play an important role in:
- setting the global media strategy and narrative for Ørsted across corporate, financial, and regulatory topics
- advising the C-suite and senior leaders on sensitive, complex, and market-moving issues
- leading high-stakes press engagement, issues management, and crisis response
- anticipating risks and shape proactive positioning in a rapidly changing energy and policy landscape and building trusted relationships with top-tier international and financial media
- leading and developing a high-performing global media team consisting of 5 advisors with strong standards and sharp prioritisation
- ensuring tight integration across communications, Global Regulatory and Public Affairs, and Investors Relations.
To succeed in the role, you:
- demonstrate significant senior experience in corporate media relations, strategic communications, or journalism at the highest level
- have a track record in advising executives during high‑stakes situations such as major transactions, crises, restructurings, or regulatory scrutiny
- show the ability to operate independently and make sound decisions in fast‑moving, high-pressure environments
- have a strong understanding of how journalists think, what drives stories, and how to craft narratives that resonate
- thrive in a collaborative, mission‑driven team where you proactively contribute to a positive and high‑performing culture.
Maybe you’ve read the above and can see you have some transferable skills, even though they don’t quite match all the points. If you think you can bring something to the team, we still encourage you to apply.
