The Role

This is a high-ownership role for a seasoned communications professional who has built earned media programs from the ground up and has stood in the room — or led the room — during a real crisis. You will be responsible for the company’s external reputation across press and industry channels, architect and maintain our crisis communications capability, and manage a supporting analyst relations function.

This role sits inside a lean, high-functioning corporate communications team that includes internal communications, content and thought leadership, and CSR. Creative, digital, events, and measurement sit in shared services — meaning your job is strategy, relationships, and execution, not production management. You’ll work closely with marketing and product marketing through a unified editorial calendar and shared message framework that corporate communications owns.

The right person for this role is equally comfortable pitching a trade journalist, drafting a holding statement at 10 pm, and advising a leadership team. You are a practitioner, not just a manager.

Key Responsibilities:

What You’ll Own

Public Relations

• Lead all earned media strategy across trade, business, and technology press, with fluency in both the insurance carrier and collision repair markets the company serves
• Build and own relationships with key journalists, editors, and producers at priority publications and outlets
• Drive a proactive thought leadership placement program in close partnership with the content team: bylines, contributed articles, executive interviews, and feature coverage
• Own spokesperson readiness through training and maintenance programs
• Own a press release and media monitoring process that delivers internal visibility on news going out the door and coverage secured from PR and thought leadership activities
• Own the PR agency relationship, including setting the strategy, managing priorities, holding the agency accountable to outcomes, and escalating when performance warrants it
• Establish and maintain a PR measurement framework tracking share of voice, narrative alignment, and coverage quality
• Serve as a standing contributor to the unified corporate editorial calendar, ensuring PR activity is coordinated with content, internal comms, and marketing

Crisis Communications

• Architect, maintain, and continuously improve the company’s crisis communications playbook, including escalation protocols, spokesperson guidance, holding statement libraries, channel-by-channel response frameworks, and post-incident review processes
• Serve as the primary communications lead during active crisis situations, working in direct partnership with legal, HR, and executive leadership
• Conduct regular readiness reviews and tabletop exercises to ensure the company can respond quickly and credibly when it matters
• Serve as an ongoing advisor on reputational risk and issues management — identifying and flagging emerging concerns before they reach crisis threshold
• Ensure customer-facing and employee-facing crisis communications are coordinated and sequenced correctly, in partnership with internal communications

Analyst Relations — Supporting Function

• Maintain active relationships with relevant industry analysts covering insurance technology, insurtech, and adjacent enterprise software / AI categories
• Own strategic engagement with key analysts that work to advance our corporate positioning. Partner with the key leaders on advancing CCC’s position in the insurance sector
• Track analyst coverage, reports, and sentiment; ensure key analysts have accurate, current information about the company’s direction, differentiation, and customer outcomes
• Flag analyst perspectives that carry strategic relevance for product, sales, or executive leadership

Requirements:

What You Bring

• 12+ years of communications experience, with at least 6 years focused on B2B technology PR
• A track record of earning meaningful coverage, including placements in trade and business press that moved perception
• Direct, hands-on experience owning or co-leading crisis communications response, including at least one live, high-stakes situation
• Experience managing external PR agencies with high standards and clear accountability
• Strong executive communication skills — you can advise the C-suite under pressure and push back when the instinct in the room is wrong
• Comfort operating in a lean team where you are both the strategist and the executor
• Familiarity with the insurance, financial services, or enterprise software sectors preferred; direct insurance industry experience a meaningful plus
• Experience with analyst relations at any level; deep AR expertise is not required but intellectual curiosity about the function is
