Your Opportunity

At Schwab, you're empowered to make an impact on your career. Here, innovative thought meets creative problem solving, helping us "challenge the status quo" and transform the finance industry together.

We believe in the importance of in-office collaboration and fully intend for the selected candidate for this role to work on site in the specified location(s).

Schwab's Functional Communications team within the Corporate Affairs Organization focuses on building employee alignment and delivering business results through internal communications. We're a small, high-performing group that moves fast, thinks creatively, and puts our audiences at the center of everything we do. We believe great communication builds trust, drives alignment, and helps people do their best work - and we're looking for someone who shares that belief.

In this role, you will directly support senior business leaders and manage internal communications strategies in pursuit of two goals: help advance company objectives and organizational priorities, and drive employee engagement.

This Senior Manager role will support the firm's Finance and Internal Audit functions.
Responsibilities include the following:

• Advance the goals of our business partners and keep employees informed and engaged.
• Align employees to the company's strategy and priorities - where Schwab is going, why it matters and how they contribute.
• Shape and amplify leader voices across various forums and with diverse audiences, working proactively with Corporate Affairs colleagues to build connectivity and synergy across internal, external, and social communications activities and approaches.
• Drive results and influence behaviors by helping leaders paint a compelling vision of the future and helping employees navigate through change.
• Partner with team members and business partners to understand audience needs and deliver communications that are clear, relevant, and well timed.
• Leverage metrics to share meaningful insights with the leaders of these two functions.
• Foster a culture of service, trust, and partnership - both within our team and across the organization.

You'll have the opportunity to grow your craft in a collaborative environment that welcomes new ideas, embraces innovation, and values continuous improvement. You'll work closely with a tight-knit team of communicators while also partnering with colleagues across the broader Corporate Affairs network and the businesses we support - giving you meaningful exposure to the business and ample opportunity to make your mark.
