Strategic Communication Lead

This is a senior, individual-contributor engagement to build enduring strategic communication standards, including style guides, templates, and visual storytelling practices, for Client's Market Intelligence & Strategy team. The contractor leverages existing Client templates and branding guidelines as a foundation and builds upon them to create new communication standards and products for the team's use. The contractor brings strategic communication and visual storytelling expertise, not technical modeling or engineering knowledge, and works independently as an individual contributor with no supervisory responsibility.

This role has no external stakeholder engagement responsibilities. However, the standards it establishes govern materials that are themselves external-facing, including Board materials, Client reports, and public presentation materials, and the contractor reviews and may produce such deliverables in that context. This is a build-and-transfer engagement. The objective is to establish durable communication standards and practices that Client staff can apply and sustain after the engagement ends, not to establish a permanent operating role.
