at Dynapower
๐ข About Dynapower
Dynapower is a power electronics leader driving a resilient, clean energy future through innovative power conversion and storage solutions. As a subsidiary of Sensata Technologies, you'll join a global team committed to sustainability and cutting-edge technology. This remote role offers the opportunity to shape internal communications for a company at the forefront of the energy transition.
About This Role
As a Senior Communications Specialist, you'll serve as a strategic advisor to senior leaders in Bulgaria, developing and executing internal and external communications that align 4,000 employees with Sensata's purpose and strategy. This hands-on role involves crafting key messages, coordinating large-scale employee briefings, and enhancing internal channels like the intranet and newsletters. Your work will directly impact employee engagement and employer branding in a critical market.
๐ก A Day in the Life
A typical day might start with a virtual check-in with the European Communications Lead to align on priorities. You'll spend part of the morning drafting a newsletter for Bulgarian employees, then join a strategy meeting with a senior leader to prepare messaging for an upcoming town hall. In the afternoon, you'll review and edit internal memos, coordinate with the intranet team on content updates, and analyze engagement metrics from a recent all-hands meeting.
