The Role:
Comply is seeking a senior communications leader to define and execute our PR, media, and executive communications strategy — and to elevate our CEO and executive team into visible, trusted authorities within financial services and regulatory compliance.
This role owns how Comply is understood by the market: what stories get told, where we show up, who speaks for us, and why we matter. You will lead earned and owned media, executive visibility, social influence, and external recognition with a clear mandate: build credibility in a highly regulated industry, shape category narrative, and connect communications output to measurable business outcomes.
This is a high-caliber role for a strategic operator who understands the nuance, rigor, and trust required to communicate with financial institutions, regulators, and compliance leaders — and who can translate complex regulatory and AI-driven innovation into clear, compelling narratives across integrated channels.

Secure and position the CEO and executives for high-value external visibility, including media interviews, contributed articles, podcasts, and industry forums
Build a consistent, credible executive voice that balances authority, clarity, and approachability
Expert Speaker Bureau & Executive Amplification
Work cross-functionally with Product, Regulatory Services, Legal, Marketing, and Sales to identify, develop, and elevate Comply subject-matter experts
