About The Communications Network
The Communications Network connects, gathers, and informs leaders from the most influential foundations, nonprofits, and social-sector consultancies across the globe.
We are a vibrant, diverse, and generous community of 3,000+ communicators, storytellers, strategists, designers, researchers, and community builders.
Driven by our core values of community, learning, and leadership, The Network helps social-sector leaders solve complex problems and use communications to advance a more just, healthy, and equitable world.
We work remotely, flexibly, and collaboratively — balancing excellence with warmth. Our team culture is curious, kind, creative, and candid. We believe in big ideas, smart systems, and doing good work with good people.
About the Role
We’re looking for a creative, strategic, and endlessly resourceful Communications Coordinator who can help The Communications Network speak with one clear, confident, and compelling voice across every platform. You’re someone who loves shaping ideas, telling stories, and designing experiences that make people stop, think, and act — whether that’s a member, a partner, or a future community leader.
This role is central to The Network’s mission: ensuring that everything we produce — from email updates to social campaigns to microsites like the Trust Playbook or ComMatters — is high-quality, consistent, and human-centered. You’ll design and produce visual content, help execute The Network’s comms strategy, and help craft The Network’s digital voice while keeping our members, partners, and the field engaged and inspired.
