Job Summary

We are seeking an experienced communications manager based in Austin, Texas, to serve as the embedded communications partner for Customer Operations and the Austin site. This individual will work closely with local leaders and employees to strengthen communication, engagement, and connection while supporting broader Allergan Aesthetics U.S. Commercial priorities.

A core focus of the role will be establishing a strong, consistent cadence of Austin site and leadership communications, including quarterly and end-of-quarter updates, local town halls, site materials, employee announcements, and engagement campaigns. Through close partnership with Austin colleagues, the Manager will develop a deep understanding of the organization, its people, and the end-to-end customer experience.

Building on that foundation, the Manager will provide increasingly strategic communications support for Customer Operations programs, milestones, and operational initiatives. This individual will translate complex topics into clear, coordinated communications, connect Customer Operations work to broader commercial priorities, and help anticipate communications needs, opportunities, and risks.

As a member of the broader Corporate & Commercial Communications team, this individual will collaborate regularly with communications colleagues while operating day to day alongside the Austin-based leaders and employees they support. The role requires a proactive, highly independent communications professional who can build trusted relationships, readily integrate into projects, and manage work from strategy and stakeholder counsel through development, approvals, and execution.

• Establish appropriate feedback and measurement mechanisms to assess communications effectiveness and inform future planning.

Employee Engagement

• Serve as a trusted communications partner to Austin site leaders and their teams, becoming a visible and integrated member of the local organization.
• Lead planning and content development for quarterly and end-of-quarter leadership communications, local town halls, employee meetings, organizational announcements, and other recurring site communications.
• Establish and manage an effective communications and engagement cadence for Austin employees, ensuring timely visibility into business priorities, site developments, and opportunities to participate.
