Job Description

STRATEGIC COMMUNICATIONS CREATIVE LEAD

We are the movers of the world and the makers of the future. We get up every day, roll up our sleeves and build a better world -- together. At Ford, we’re all a part of something bigger than ourselves. Are you ready to change the way the world moves?

With a career on the Ford Communications team, you can bring the message of our exciting innovations to the world!

You’ll be part of a dedicated organization delivering best-in-class, high-impact communications programs that support our innovations, industry leadership and commitment to social responsibility.

The Strategic Communications team works at the intersection of visual, narrative, and communications design and develops content through a lens of business strategy and a deep understanding of multifaceted audiences. Our designers are a clarifying voice — an integrative and ordering force that shapes the stories we tell on the Product Development Operations and Quality Team within Ford Blue. Using storytelling, video, motion, design systems, branding, and tone, you will help make our purpose clear and weave a common thread through our work, helping bring the vision of senior leaders and the broader Ford Blue team to life for both internal external audiences. **
