SBS Internal Communications Manager

About the role

The Strategic Communications & Community Engagement Manager is a school-based communications role responsible for strengthening internal alignment, parent communication, and community engagement at SBS Rangsit International Bilingual School. This role reports directly to the Head of School, with a dotted-line relationship to the Chief Brand Strategist of AOI to ensure alignment with wider institutional positioning, brand standards, and strategic communications priorities. The successful candidate will work closely with the Head of School, Principals, teachers, school management, admissions, parent representatives, students, photographers, graphic designers, and AOI brand and marketing teams to build a strong and consistent pipeline of meaningful school communications. This is not a messenger role at the end of the pipeline. The successful candidate must be able to work upstream with school leadership, understand strategic priorities, ask thoughtful questions, extract meaning from complexity, shape key messages, influence communication effectiveness, and create materials that are clear, elegant, succinct, and strategically useful.
