What we're looking for

--------------------------

  • External comms experience in hypergrowth tech: 5+ years building and executing external communications at fast-growing technology companies (B2B or B2C SaaS preferred), ideally with experience building new programs while staying hands-on
  • Public affairs and policy fluency: Experience engaging with policymakers, government stakeholders, or multilateral organizations (e.g., WEF, EU institutions); comfort positioning executives in AI policy conversations
  • European communications expertise: Strong relationships with European tech and business media (including new media), with a track record of securing meaningful, on-message coverage; experience with issues management a plus
  • Executive partnership and preparation: Track record of advising and coaching spokespeople for media interviews, speaking engagements, and high-profile public moments
  • Employer brand instincts: Understanding of how external communications drives talent attraction; bonus points for direct experience developing narratives that resonate with technical audiences
  • Extreme ownership with keen attention to detail: You take full accountability for outcomes, sweat the small stuff, and catch what others miss
  • Comfort with ambiguity and speed: You're energized (not drained) by fast-moving environments where priorities shift and you're building the plane while flying it

What you'll do

------------------

  • Own European media relations: Develop and execute Lovable's European media strategy — journalist relationships, proactive pitching, and reactive opportunities
  • Support public affairs and policy engagement: Help position Lovable and our executives in AI policy conversations, supporting presence at forums like Davos, government engagements, and thought leadership on democratizing software creation
  • Lead employer brand for talent attraction: Drive external communications that reinforce Lovable as a destination for world-class talent, particularly technical hires in Europe — from content strategy to media placement to awards

  • Manage our European events presence: Identify and execute strategic speaking opportunities and events that advance Lovable's visibility and credibility with European audiences
