Story Works defines how Shark Ninja tells its story. We are hiring a Director, Editorial & Enterprise Storytelling to operate as our in‑house journalist. This role reports directly to the Chief Communications Officer and is responsible for finding, reporting, and telling the most important stories across Shark Ninja. The position is tailored for candidates with a strong editorial or journalism background, and it is not a traditional internal communications or marketing content role.

• Identify, report, and write key stories covering innovation, design, culture, and business priorities.
• Act as the senior writer on the team, setting the standard for clarity, precision, and strong editorial judgment.
• Develop original content grounded in reporting, not repackaging existing materials.
• Partner with the Chief Communications Officer to translate company priorities into clear, compelling storytelling.
• Turn complex topics into content that is direct, engaging, and easy to understand.
• Bring a strong point of view on how stories should be told, raising the standard of writing across the organization.
• Apply a consumer‑first lens to enterprise storytelling, making content as engaging as the products we build.
• Create content that supports executive messaging and extends across internal and external channels.
• Connect stories across teams and initiatives, emphasizing design, product innovation, and Shark Ninja’s differentiation.
• Operate at newsroom pace, producing high‑quality content quickly without sacrificing clarity or quality.
• Manage and scale output through freelance writers and creative partners as needed.
• Step in during key company moments to support global communications, bringing structure, clarity, and strong storytelling to major initiatives and announcements.
• Help others across the organization become better storytellers, guiding leaders and teams on how to surface, shape, and communicate stronger narratives.

• 10+ years in journalism, reporting, or editorial roles in a newsroom, media organization, or equivalent environment.
• Proven experience producing original reporting, not just editing or repackaging content.
• Experience covering companies, products, design, innovation, or business strategy.
• Experience working with senior leaders or executives to shape high‑stakes messaging.

• Exceptional writing and editing skills with a clear, confident voice.
• Strong reporting instincts to find the story rather than wait for it.
• Ability to distill complex ideas into simple, direct, and engaging narratives.
• Sharp editorial judgment on what matters and what does not.
• Strong instinct for visual storytelling and appreciation for design, product, and innovation.

• Experience working in fast‑paced editorial environments with tight timelines and high standards.
• Ability to navigate ambiguity and develop clear narratives without perfect inputs.
• Strong ability to work directly with senior stakeholders and move work forward.
• High standards for accuracy, clarity, and quality.

• Rarely satisfied, always pushing for stronger, clearer storytelling.
• Curious, direct, and willing to ask hard questions to get to the truth of a story.
• Strong point of view balanced with the ability to adapt to different voices and audiences.
• Deep interest in products, design, and how companies build and scale innovation.
