The Strategic Communications Associate grows Pattern's communications capacity to meet the needs of a growing development and operating portfolio, producing project-specific communications strategy, materials, messaging, and digital presence across priority U.S. regions. The work directly supports Pattern's business objectives by positioning priority projects and the Pattern brand favorably in key regions, informing narratives and engaging stakeholders within an increasingly complex digital information landscape.

The Associate contributes to communications strategy and is responsible for executing it, delivering strong drafts, sharp content, and a modern digital presence. This work balances proactive efforts that build goodwill with reactive efforts that protect reputation and Pattern's license to operate when issues arise. The Associate also builds and formalizes the tools and processes that let the function scale alongside the portfolio.

Delivering this work requires close partnership with project teams, subject matter experts, and external agencies.
