In the posting’s own words

We're looking for an executive communications manager to shape Figma's story and how our execs tell it. You’ll partner with leaders across the business to turn early ideas into clear, compelling points of view and build platforms that only they can credibly own. From there you'll work with our comms team and Figmates across the company to get those stories told in the spaces and places where they’ll have the most impact.

What it asks for · 5

  • Extensive experience crafting narratives for senior executives across formats, channels and audiences
  • A track record of writing for C-suite executives with strong opinions and high standards
  • Executive presence, and a track record of influencing people who don't report to you
  • Media relations experience and sound judgment on press, messaging and reputation
  • Comfort with ambiguity, deep curiosity and a record of shipping strong work

Also a plus

  • A journalism or editorial background, with an instinct for what's newsworthy and how a story reads to an outside audience
  • Experience in tech, creative pursuits and/or product design and development
  • Strong business literacy and the ability to translate complex financial and technical topics for a broader audience
  • Passion for Figma and what we do!

What the job covers

  • Build the narrative framework executives across the business use to tell Figma's story, and their own
  • Work with our comms team on media strategy, and bring sound judgment to messaging and channel selection
  • Partner with (and occasionally spar) with executives to sharpen their ideas and the broader point of view behind them
  • Build the system and infrastructure this function needs to keep our executive storytelling consistent and differentiated
  • Find ways to measure impact and drive a culture of experimentation in our exec comms

How this page was made

An automated read of a public job posting, fetched August 28, 2026 and last changed by Figma on August 23, 2026. Every list above is pulled from the posting’s own sentences — nothing rewritten, nothing added, no judgment about the role or the company. Counts and seniority are read off the text by rule, so they can be wrong where the posting is unusual. The original is the only thing that binds. Openings close without warning; check the source before spending an evening on it.
