• Insights & Analysis: Monitor daily coverage of Tapestry, its brands, and the broader competitive set. Surface trends, white-space opportunities, and reputational signals that inform planning and prioritization. Translate raw data into actionable recommendations the team can act on.

• Operational Rigor:Help bring discipline and consistency to the team's day-to-day work by maintaining editorial calendars, story pipelines, and post-moment learnings. Support the team in moving cohesively by ensuring stories, content, and key moments are well-planned, tracked, and followed through.

• Agency & Measurement Partner Coordination: Serve as a key day-to-day point of contact with measurement and agency partners on data inputs, dashboards, and reporting cadence. Ensure consistency and quality of measurement inputs across partners.

• Cross-Functional Collaboration: Work closely with colleagues across Executive Communications, Employee Communications, Narrative & Storytelling, Brand, and Investor Relations to surface organic storytelling opportunities and ensure consistency of messaging across paid, owned, earned, and internal channels.

Qualifications:

• Bachelor's degree in Communications, Journalism, Public Relations, English, Marketing, or related field required.

• Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to tell compelling stories and pull-out clear headlines from complex information.

• Comfort with data including building reports, working in Excel, and synthesizing media monitoring or analytics outputs into clear takeaways.

• AI-literate and tech-curious: comfortable experimenting with AI tools (e.g., ChatGPT, Claude, Copilot, Gemini) to accelerate research, drafting, and analysis, and eager to explore how emerging technologies can elevate the craft of communications.

• Demonstrated attention to detail, project management instincts, and ability to manage multiple workstreams in a fast-paced environment.

• Strong relationship-building skills and the ability to collaborate confidently across functions and levels.

• Sound judgment and discretion when working with sensitive or confidential information.

• A proactive, multi-tasking self-starter who is eager to learn the craft of external communications.
