Senior editorial lead

This role sits at the heart of how Quadient communicates internally at scale. As Senior Editorial Lead, you’ll shape how our biggest ideas – on our strategy, transformation and culture – are turned into clear, consistent, and meaningful communication across the business.

You are the architect behind our enterprise narrative: making complex change understandable, cutting through noise, and helping our employees focus on what matters most. By defining how we structure, sequence, and deliver communications, you ensure leaders speak with clarity and that the organization moves forward with confidence.

You’ll translate corporate strategy and transformation priorities into a simple, coherent editorial approach—supported by strong narrative frameworks, publishing standards, and governance. In doing so, you act as the guardian of quality and consistency across all internal communications.

At a time of accelerated transformation, this role is critical. You’ll help leaders communicate more effectively, enable employees to understand what’s changing (and why), and ensure our communications support our shift toward more future-ready ways of working – including responsible AI adoption.

• Provide editorial leadership across high-impact communications, channels, and content, guiding leaders, optimizing the channel ecosystem and using insights to improve effectiveness
