The Opportunity

Hinge Health is transforming MSK care for millions of people—and as a newly public company, the stakes have never been higher. Every earnings call, product launch, and media engagement is an opportunity to shape how investors, employees, and the market understand our mission and momentum.

We need a Corporate Communications Manager who can translate complex business strategy and financial performance into narratives that land with precision and impact. You'll be the storytelling engine behind our corporate reputation—partnering with Investor Relations, executive leadership, and cross-functional teams to craft communications that move the needle on share of voice, stakeholder confidence, and internal alignment. If you thrive in high-stakes environments where your words shape perception and drive outcomes, this role is for you.

What You'll Accomplish

In your first 3 months:

• Establish trust with key stakeholders—IR, executive leadership, and cross-functional partners—by delivering on quick-win projects like press releases or internal comms

• Audit current communications workflows and media relationships, identifying gaps and opportunities to elevate our corporate storytelling

In your first 6 months:

• Expand Hinge Health's media footprint by securing top-tier placements in business or healthcare outlets

• Develop and refine executive messaging frameworks that translate financial performance and strategy into compelling, accessible narratives for diverse audiences

In your first year:

• Own the communications strategy for quarterly earnings cycles, acting as the go-to expert for business and financial storytelling

• Increase Hinge Health's share of voice through strategic media campaigns and proactive thought leadership

• Build a reputation internally as the "narrative architect"—someone who can take complex, high-stakes information and turn it into stories that inspire employees, reassure investors, and engage the market
