Responsibilities

Work with cross-functional partners to help the financial business press understand why Figma is the leading platform for teams that design and build digital products together.
Work with partners in business operations, e.g. strategic finance, partnerships, to identify breakthrough stories that transition Figma’s business strength and momentum to the press and investor audiences.
Identify, develop, and deepen relationships with reporters at high-priority business + financial publications across the region in the U.S., U.K., and Europe. You’ll be expected to spend a significant amount of time scanning the news and finding the right reporters to pitch for a steady stream of story placements.
