Job Title: Head of Communications

How You'll Make an Impact:

We're looking for a Head of Communications to own our global narrative and elevate Cloudbeds as a leading voice for hospitality technology and the industry at large.

This is a senior, high-impact individual contributor role for an experienced communications leader who wants strategic ownership, executive access, and the opportunity to influence how the industry thinks.

As Head of Communications, you'll be the primary owner of Cloudbeds' external voice. You'll report to the VP of Marketing and collaborate closely with executive leadership, regional leadership, and our PR agency to define and amplify our point of view across media, thought leadership, and industry presence across the globe. You will:
  • Own Cloudbeds' global communications strategy, spanning PR, thought leadership, executive visibility, and industry influence;
  • Define Cloudbeds' positions on key industry topics, including the role of AI and the future of travel booking, hotel operations, and guest experience, and translate them into strong narratives that align with Cloudbeds brand and market positioning;
  • Lead all company press releases and major announcements, ensuring clear, compelling, and consistent messaging;
  • Create and shape thought leadership in collaboration with Content Marketing, including bylines, op-eds, keynote narratives, and industry commentary;
  • Act as a spokesperson for Cloudbeds in select media interviews, podcasts, and industry events;
  • Proactively identify and secure high-value speaking opportunities for Cloudbeds executives at major global conferences and events;
  • Prepare executives for external visibility through messaging frameworks, media training, and presentation coaching;
  • Own the development of keynote decks, executive presentations, and event materials in partnership with field marketing;
  • Build and maintain strong relationships with journalists, editors, and industry influencers across trade, hospitality, and mainstream media;
  • Develop differentiated media pitches that drive meaningful coverage and position Cloudbeds as a thought leader;
  • Serve as the primary liaison with PR agencies-setting direction, reviewing performance, and ensuring alignment with business priorities;
  • Track and measure the impact of communications and PR efforts, using insights to refine strategy and improve results.

This is a chance to shape the public narrative of a fast-growing global SaaS company at a pivotal moment for the hospitality industry. You'll have real influence, executive access, and the opportunity to help define how hotels think about the future.

What You Bring to the Team:

We're looking for a seasoned communications professional who thrives as a trusted, senior-level contributor who can own both strategy and execution. You bring:

Extensive experience in communications, PR, or corporate messaging within hospitality, hotel tech, or adjacent B2B SaaS industries; A strong network of hospitality media, industry analysts, hoteliers, consultants, and influencers; Deep familiarity with major global hospitality and technology events-and how to maximize executive presence at them; Exceptional messaging instincts and the ability to articulate a clear, provocative point of view; Excellent writing and verbal communication skills; equally comfortable on stage, on camera, on a podcast, or behind the keyboard. Experience partnering closely with senior executives and serving as a trusted communications advisor; A self-directed, roll-up-your-sleeves mindset-you're strategic, but you're not afraid to do the work.

What Success Looks Like:
  • Cloudbeds has a clear, differentiated, and compelling point of view that consistently shows up across media, events, executive communications, and thought leadership.
  • Our executives are visible, well-prepared, and increasingly sought after as industry voices at top-tier global hospitality and technology events.
  • Media coverage is proactive, high-quality, and aligned to our strategic priorities - reinforcing Cloudbeds as a hospitality industry leader and top vertical SaaS company.
  • Major announcements and narratives are sharp, cohesive, and elevate our brand positioning in the market.
  • Communications is viewed internally as a strategic growth driver and trusted partner to leadership.
