## Job description

Lead the development and execution of proactive campaigns to improve Ford's corporate reputation among opinion leaders and the general public, building durable trust and strengthening the company's license to operate. Understand where Ford's reputation is vulnerable and build plans to protect it, while designing creative paid, earned and owned campaigns that deliver measurable, meaningful improvement in how Ford is perceived.

Bring a rigorous, data-driven understanding of what drives Ford's reputation, and pair that analytical foundation with bold creative thinking that builds real emotional connection to the brand among key audiences. Serve as a People Leader, responsible for the development and high-performance output of a team of communications professionals and collaborate cross functionally throughout the company on reputation enhancing efforts.

## Responsibilities

You Will...

### Build proactive reputation campaigns

Develop and launch proactive, multi-channel campaigns designed to improve Ford's corporate reputation among opinion leaders and the general public.

### Identify vulnerabilities

Continuously assess where Ford's reputation is most exposed or vulnerable, and develop plans to protect and defend the company's standing before issues escalate.

### Lead creative, integrated campaigns

Create compelling paid, earned and owned campaigns that work together to shift perception and demonstrate meaningful, measurable improvement in Ford's reputation over time.

### Understand the drivers of reputation

Identify and prioritize the biggest drivers of Ford's corporate reputation, and ensure campaigns are strategically built around the elements most likely to move the needle.

### Measure what matters

Continue evolving a strong measurement framework to track Ford's reputation over time, including sentiment, trust and perception among opinion leaders and the general public, and use that data to continuously refine strategy.

### Create emotional connection

Design campaigns and storytelling that build genuine emotional connection to Ford among key audiences, not just awareness or recall.

### Partner across the enterprise

Work closely with Corporate Communications, Marketing, Government Affairs and business leaders to ensure reputation campaigns are coordinated with broader company priorities and narratives.

### To Be Successful You Will

Balance data and creativity: Be equally comfortable analyzing the data behind what shifts perception and builds trust, and leading bold creative work that brings campaigns to life.

### Set a high bar

Promote a culture of excellence and creativity in every campaign and piece of work the team produces.

### Empower and delegate

Embrace a leadership model that embeds team members in projects from inception, providing them with high-contact coaching and visibility.

### Operationalize innovation

Proactively use AI and data tools for insights, measurement and workflow automation, and apply a continuous-improvement mindset to all major initiatives.

### Master complex stakeholder management

Navigate the intersection of Corporate Communications, Marketing, Government Affairs and executive leadership to build and protect Ford's reputation.

### Grow talent

Give and receive performance reflections constructively to support the team's development.

### Run governance

Apply the right balance of structure and agility to maximize effectiveness.

### Develop your skills

Continuously improve your functional competency and leadership behaviors.

## Qualifications

You'll Have... 10-15+ years of communications, marketing or brand experience, with a focus on reputation, brand campaigns or corporate/consumer brand communications. Bachelor's degree in communications, marketing, journalism or related field. Demonstrated prior experience leading reputation-enhancing campaigns for other consumer-facing brands. You May Also Have... Proven ability to translate reputation and perception data into creative, campaign-ready strategy.

Experience leading integrated paid, earned and owned campaigns at scale. Exceptional proactive storytelling, media relations and crisis management skills. Proven experience supporting senior executives and leading teams. Well-developed business acumen and professional maturity. You may not check every box, or your experience may look a little different from what we’ve outlined, but if you think you can bring value to Ford Motor Company, we encourage you to apply!

As an established global company, we offer the benefit of choice. You can choose what your Ford future will look like: will your story span the globe, or keep you close to home? Will your career be a deep dive into what you love, or a series of new teams and new skills? Will you be a leader, a changemaker, a technical expert, a culture builder…or all of the above?

No matter what you choose, we offer a work life that works for you, including:
- Immediate medical, dental, vision and prescription drug coverage
