London, Greater London, United Kingdom Improbable Full time £80,000 - £120,000 per year

At Improbable, we believe that the next revolution in entertainment and society will come from massive virtual worlds. They will create new economies and opportunities globally, changing not just how we play, but how we work and relate to each other. That's why we've made it our mission to build the next generation of technologies for online multi-user games and simulations.

At Improbable, you are surrounded by people who want to improve everything and everyone around them, and who compel you to improve yourself. We're motivated by the fulfilment of solving hard problems to achieve something profound and transformative.

Venture Builder

Improbable is a Venture Builder. We are working with leaders to create businesses in AI transformation, the metaverse and web3. We both create businesses from scratch and invest in existing businesses. Our central services teams work with ventures to help them achieve success.

Our Mission

As our new Communications Director, you will play a critical role in shaping how the world sees Improbable and our expanding portfolio of products and initiatives. You will help drive awareness, understanding, and equity for our corporate and product brands, ensuring our vision for virtual worlds is communicated clearly, credibly, and compellingly.

You'll be a skilled storyteller with a strong earned-media mindset and deep understanding of influence networks. You will support the development and execution of strategic messaging, media engagement, and cross-functional communications efforts — contributing directly to a proactive and scalable communications function.

Your Opportunity

  • Contribute to the development and execution of communications and PR strategies aligned to company goals and values.

  • Support strategic messaging across external communications, press, crisis communications, and internal communications.

  • Help evolve Improbable's public messaging and voice to resonate with priority audiences.

  • Assist in building and managing a network of influencers, media, institutions, and industry gatekeepers.

  • Support partnerships with external agencies and vendors to scale our communications capability.

  • Contribute to growing and leading a high-performing internal comms team.

  • Partner with marketing teams to drive brand awareness and earned media opportunities.

  • Motivate, coach, and support the growth and development of team members.

  • Support measurement and reporting on the health and momentum of corporate and product brands.

Why You're Made For This

  • Demonstrated impact supporting high-performing communications functions.

  • A strong network and ability to build influence through direct relationships and agency partners.

  • Experience building earned media strategies that drive measurable brand visibility and action.

  • A track record supporting brand evolution and storytelling for innovation-led companies.

  • Experience working cross-functionally in fast-moving, high-ambiguity environments.

  • Strong leadership, communication, and organizational skills.

  • Experience in high-growth technology, gaming, or frontier-tech environments (preferred).

You are:

  • A proactive, adaptable leader comfortable with experimentation and change.

  • Able to balance strategic thinking with tactical execution.

  • A collaborative partner and culture-builder with a hands-on mentality.

While we think the above experience could be important, we're keen to hear from people that believe they have valuable experience to bring to the role. If you identify with the team and mission, but not all of our requirements, then please still apply.
