PR and Communications Manager in Berlin bei Again

About Again

CO2 is a global problem. By fermenting it into carbon negative chemicals, we make it the solution.

We have figured out how to take the carbon outputs from industrial emitters, and use them as the inputs for chemical manufacturing. We’re not simply storing carbon away - we are turning it into valuable, emission-free green-chemicals. If that doesn’t bubble your bioreactor, how about this: For every tonne of products we make, over 2 tonnes of carbon are removed from the atmosphere. We have raised over $50m to date from top venture capital investors as well as in grant funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 programme. If you think we’re doomed - think Again

What you’ll do

We are looking for a PR and Communications Manager to help us tell our story – the story of how we are putting CO2 to good use. This is a hands-on and multidisciplinary role and you will be wearing many different hats. As our first communications hire, you will be responsible for building our PR and communications function and strategy from the ground up. The role involves engaging our diverse audiences, from potential industry partners and policy influencers, to relevant talent pools and the general public.

Responsibilities

• Develop and implement our PR & communications strategies to raise awareness of Again and our novel CO2-to-chemical technology
• Support talent acquisition, investor relations, and partnership development efforts through effective PR campaigns
• Cultivate and maintain relationships with key media contacts, journalists, and relevant industry influencers
• Write and distribute press releases, media pitches, and other press materials to secure positive media coverage
• Manage the company's social media channels, including content creation, community engagement and improve our employer brand
• Provide strategic communications advice to management and be our all-round go-to person for storytelling and sharing what we are doing here at Again!

About you

• You have a degree in communications, public relations, journalism, marketing, or a related field
• You have 4-5 years of relevant experience, ideally in a similar role in PR, corporate communications, or related roles, preferably from a start-up and/or biotech industry
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to distill complex scientific concepts into clear and compelling messaging
• You love storytelling & creative writing - and can spot many opportunities to improve this job ad (bonus points if you have some suggestions for us in our first call)
• You are hands on and work independently as you will be riding solo and won't have a communications team around you to rely on
• It’s essential that you have a strong interest in the green transition, and a plus if you have worked in the area of biotech, carbon capture, or the chemical industry

What we promise you?

• You get to work with a group of passionate scientists & entrepreneurs working on challenging and meaningful projects
• This will be the journey of a lifetime – we are serious about our mission to reduce over 1 gigaton of CO₂ and you can play a pivotal role in making that happen
• An inclusive, empowering and engaging work environment
• We understand that relocating can be a hassle, so if you don't live in Berlin, we will help out to give you a smooth transition
