Whether people and businesses are sending money to another country, spending abroad, or making and receiving international payments, Wise is on a mission to make their life easier and save them money.

As part of our team, you will be helping us create an entirely new network for the world's money. For everyone, everywhere.
More about our mission.

We’re looking for a Senior PR Manager to build, manage and improve Wise’s strong reputation across DACH. We’re looking for a confident, creative PR individual with a demonstrated background leading bold PR awareness campaigns for consumer, tech or payment brand companies. You will be critical to helping journalists and other key audiences understand how Wise is building the best way to move and manage around the world through our products: Wise Account, Wise Business and Wise Platform.

This role has a primary focus on Germany as well as working on projects in Switzerland and Austria, but will require you also to quickly embed yourself on pan-european or global projects. You will be based in our London office, reporting to the EMEA PR Lead.  

What you bring to the table:

• Strong experience of working in PR in Germany - this could be in-house or at a PR agency, where you’ve led accounts and have been instrumental in the client’s success. Bonus if you’ve worked in fintech. 

• Track record of building memorable campaigns from scratch that drove impactful coverage through earned media.

• An innate understanding of what makes a good story for the media and how to secure great quality media coverage - along with strong existing media relationships in Germany. You’re a natural when it comes to building new contacts.

• Comfortable with scrutinising complex and technical data and turning them into simple and compelling messages and stories

• A genuine, enthusiastic interest in Wise’s mission and developing and communicating great ideas to make financial services fairer

• An ability to work proactively and autonomously in a high-growth company with a hands-on approach 

• Stickler for measurement - you’ll be comfortable with articulating, understanding (and tweaking!) the impact of the work you do

• Critical thinker, highly organised, detail-oriented and able to meet deadlines consistently

• Excellent written and spoken English and German. Additional language skills are a bonus.

What you will be doing:

• Own Product and Corporate Communications in a key growth region: Help us grow by embedding yourself in Wise’s local team to maximise the product news pipeline and generate news with a highly localised, nuanced approach

• Handle complicated issues when they crop up, and work directly with journalists to make sure Wise’s reputation is upheld. 

• You’ll be able to devise and execute a highly-localised PR strategy to drive reputation and growth – whether it’s delivering substantial media coverage through campaigns, turning speaking opportunities into reality, or developing of new ways we can make the media and public aware of what we do - as an individual and through the support of an agency

• You’ll be quickly comfortable to foster relationships working with specialist spokespeople such as our Country Managers, Leadership Team and you’ll understand how to take a creative approach to make the seemingly mundane a hot news topic

• Support Corporate Communications: Develop communications strategies to build awareness of Wise with influential business, tech and consumer lifestyle media, as well as handling issues as and when they arise 

• Manage our agency partner in Germany. 

What you’ll get

We offer you a position in one of the UK’s foremost tech companies and a chance to truly be a part of something great. It goes without saying that you’ll be a part of a fun, friendly atmosphere, with plenty of opportunities to grow personally and professionally.

You’ll get a competitive salary, flexible work hours and at least one all-expenses-paid company getaway every year. Everyone gets shares in the company too, because we believe that what we’re building belongs to each of us.

What is it really like to work here?

At Wise, we do things a bit differently. There’s no corporate nonsense and no old-fashioned hierarchy. Instead, we work in individually responsible teams. Each team picks the problems they want to solve and gets on with it - so there’s no micro-management or people telling you what to do. You will get tons of guidance and support from talented, super-smart colleagues from all over Wise. The way we work doesn’t suit everyone. But, if the freedom to take on head-scratching professional challenges sounds interesting, we could be a match made in heaven.

For everyone, everywhere. We're people building money without borders  — without judgement or prejudice, too. We believe teams are strongest when they are diverse, equitable and inclusive.

We're proud to have a truly international team, and we celebrate our differences.
Inclusive teams help us live our values and make sure every Wiser feels respected, empowered to contribute towards our mission and able to progress in their careers.
