About the role

Atticus is hiring its first Head of Communications to build a national media presence and policy-driven storytelling around Social Security and disability benefits. You will own corporate comms, engage with policymakers, and lead a data-informed PR program. You’ll report to the CMO and partner with Policy, Legal, Product, and Growth to reflect the full company in external voice. This remote role spans the US and requires strong writing and leadership.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
