Infosys•Richardson, TX

About The Position

Infosys is seeking an exceptional writer and strategic communicator for a hybrid role combining research-led thought leadership for the SURE (Services, Utilities, Resources & Energy) segment with executive communications for the SURE unit leader. The role sets the intellectual agenda and shapes the executive’s voice across keynotes, media, professional social platforms, and company-wide and client communications. The successful candidate brings domain fluency—particularly in Resources, Utilities, or Oil & Gas—along with strong storytelling, speechwriting, and stakeholder engagement skills. They translate complex business and technology themes into a compelling, consistent narrative that elevates both the executive and the SURE unit. This highly matrixed role partners closely with the Infosys Knowledge Institute, Marketing, and Sales, and operates as a discreet, trusted extension of the SURE unit leader’s office. The role defines and executes a thought leadership agenda, develops research and industry perspectives, and creates high-quality assets such as survey-based reports, whitepapers, executive briefs, point-of-view papers, and industry trend analyses. It also serves as the primary ghostwriting and communications partner to the unit leader, preparing executive content and briefings and building the leader’s profile through media, speaking engagements, and professional social networks. Infosys describes itself as a global leader in digital services and consulting, serving clients in more than 50 countries. Candidates must be authorized to work in the United States for any employer without employer-based visa sponsorship; Infosys is unable to provide immigration sponsorship for this role at this time.
