About The Position

You will define and lead CoreWeave’s financial and strategic communications function at a pivotal moment in the company’s evolution as a newly public company, shaping how our business is understood by investors, analysts, media, and policy stakeholders. You will own earnings communications, financial media strategy, and high-stakes issues management—translating complex financial, operational, and technical concepts into clear, compelling narratives that influence market perception and investor confidence. Partnering closely with executive leadership, Legal, IR, and Policy, you will provide real-time counsel during critical moments such as earnings cycles, market-moving announcements, customer concentration scrutiny, AI infrastructure policy debates, and periods of heightened public or investor attention. You will build and scale the systems, relationships, and operating rigor required to succeed as a public company, ensuring CoreWeave’s story is consistently understood with credibility, precision, and impact. This role blends strategy and execution, requiring exceptional judgment, speed, and the ability to operate at the center of business-critical decisions. As our first Director of Financial & Corporate Communications, you will report directly to the Head of Communications and serve as a key advisor to the CEO, CFO, and executive leadership team. This is a rare opportunity to build and define the financial communications function at a newly public, hyper-growth company navigating increased market visibility, investor expectations, and scrutiny. You will establish and refine our voice with financial markets, leading communications for earnings, capital markets activity, potential M&A, and ongoing public company disclosures. You will prepare executives for earnings calls, investor engagement, and high-profile media interactions, ensuring clarity, consistency, and credibility across all external narratives. You will also lead communications through high-stakes scenarios such as infrastructure reliability incidents, rapid growth scrutiny, or shifts in the AI and semiconductor landscape that impact investor sentiment. In parallel, you will design and implement frameworks to monitor narrative risk, measure communications effectiveness, and scale processes aligned with public-company standards. Joining now means shaping not just how we communicate, but how we are perceived in the public markets during a defining phase of growth.
