About The Position

As Thomson Reuters accelerates its transformation into a technology company, Analyst Relations plays a critical role in shaping how our strategy, platforms, and execution are understood by the market. We are looking for a Director of Analyst Relations who is proactive, commercially minded, and comfortable operating at speed. This individual contributor role owns our global engagement with industry analysts across technology, AI, legal, tax, risk, and professional services—and ensures that external perspectives reflect where the business is going, not where it has been. This is a new and strategic role at TR. You will drive the narrative, anticipate analyst questions before they are asked, and ensure analysts understand our roadmap, differentiation, and momentum as we build and scale new technology.

Strong understanding of enterprise technology, platforms, data, or AI‑driven products
Proven ability to synthesize complex technical and strategic concepts into clear, compelling narratives
Comfortable operating hands-on, with ownership from strategy through execution
Experience working in a matrixed organisation, influencing across teams without direct authority
High attention to detail, strong written and verbal communication skills, and a proactive mindset

Nice To Haves

Translate strategy into market understanding
Work closely with product, technology, legal, finance, and communications leaders to distil complex initiatives—especially AI and platform development—into clear, analyst-ready messages.
Operate at the pace of the business
Anticipate analyst needs around launches, earnings, acquisitions, and major strategic shifts. Prepare leaders and materials quickly and decisively, often under tight timelines.
Drive analyst engagement programs
Plan and execute analyst days, briefings, inquiries, and conferences with a bias toward impact, clarity, and efficiency.
Influence perception and positioning
