Define how the organisation codifies what it knows and how it learns.Transformation Narrative:Own the strategic narrative for the clients’ transformation, working closely with the GM and senior leadership team to ensure the story of where we are going, why we are changing, and what is expected of everyone is told clearly, consistently, and with conviction, across every stage of the journey.AI-First Communications Model:Build the governance frameworks, prompt architectures, and quality standards that enable AI to handle an increasing proportion of communications production over time. The goal is a communications function that scales, and this role is responsible for designing and embedding that model.Leadership Communications:Serve as a trusted strategic partner to the GM and senior leadership team, crafting high-stakes communications including all-hands presentations, board-level briefings, strategic announcements, and sensitive organisational messages. This person will regularly handle confidential information and must operate with absolute discretion.Chegg Alignment: Act as the internal communications lead on the clients’ relationship with Chegg, ensuring messaging around the partnership is consistent, timely, and well understood across the business. This includes syncing on shared communications, aligning on narrative where activity overlaps, and ensuring the clients’ employees have clear context on how the two businesses are working together and what that means for them.Change & Transformation Communications: Lead communications strategy for significant business changes, including restructures, new ways of working, and AI-driven workflow adoption, designing approaches that build genuine understanding and trust, not just awareness.Engagement Model Design: Define and own the employee engagement model, moving beyond broadcast communications to build two-way feedback mechanisms, listening channels, and engagement rhythms that give leadership real-time intelligence on how the organisation is responding to change.Channel & Governance Ownership:Own the internal communications channel architecture, ensuring every channel has a clear purpose, the right governance, and consistent standards. Audit and evolve the channel mix as the organisation and its tools develop.External Narrative Alignment:Partner with Marketing to ensure total coherence between internal transformation narratives and external communications, particularly around company culture, business evolution, and the Chegg partnership.

Senior / Staff Frontend Engineer - AI-Native Banking Platform Location: New York, Denver, AtlantaFunction: Frontend Engineering The Opportunity I'm working with a global financial technology leader on an exciting, newly-formed venture: an AI-native banking platform being built for Tier-1 financial institutions, combining the agility of a startup with the scale and backing of an established enterprise. This isn't a dashboard. It's the control surface for real money, real regulation, and real consequences — and it's where AI agents and human operators work side by side, with every action reviewed, traced, and approved in real time. My client is assembling a small, senior team with startup-level autonomy. If you want your frontend code to be the thing that bank operations, compliance, and finance teams trust every single day, this is the role. What You'll Be Working On The Command Center - the nerve centre of the platform. Account management, ledger operations, compliance rule configuration, product setup — high-stakes, high-density interfaces where every click matters and every action needs to be fast, clear, and correct. The Agent Experience - the embedded AI layer, where users collaborate with autonomous agents through streaming chat. You'll build plan-approval workflows where AI proposes multi-step actions and humans review each one, tool-call and agent-trace visualizations, context management for long-running conversations, and routing across multiple model providers. The Design System - the component library and interaction patterns that shape the entire platform. This comes with real product authority over the primitives, not a back-office component factory remit. Quality at Speed - a mature testing foundation (unit, integration, end-to-end, plus AI evals) that lets the team move fast because it's solid, not despite the lack of one. What You BringStrong production experience with TypeScript and React - real shipped products at scale, not side projectsDeep Next.js expertise, including App Router, Server Components, and server actionsExperience designing or extending a component system with real composition patternsA track record building complex, stateful UIs - multi-step workflows, real-time streaming data, high-density interfaces that stay fast and legible under loadSolid testing practice across unit, integration, and E2E (Vitest, Jest, Playwright, or Cypress)Comfort working across the stack when a feature calls for it — server logic, database queries, API integrationsAn ownership mindset — you don't just implement; you make the product and UX callsBonus points if you have: experience building AI-powered product surfaces (streaming LLM UIs, tool-calling interfaces, agent workflows); fintech or regulated-industry experience where audit trails and approval chains matter; or experience setting technical standards and mentoring on a small team. Why Consider This Role: Work ships directly to production at enterprise scale - powering core banking infrastructure used by Tier-1 institutions worldwide. You'd get the autonomy and pace of a startup, the resources and stability of an established global business, and direct, visible impact on a product redefining how banks operate.
