Manager, Corporate Communications — Software

FICO (NYSE: FICO ) is a leading global analytics software company, helping businesses in 100+ countries make better decisions. Join our world-class team today and fulfill your career potential!
The Opportunity

As Manager of Corporate Communications at FICO , you'll shape the narrative for our Software business — balancing 75% software communications with 25% Impact work that connects our technology and leadership to fraud awareness and prevention.

On the Software side, you'll drive integrated comms strategies, support executive thought leadership across earned and owned media, and move fluidly between product launches, proactive angles, newsjacking, and event positioning — pitching media, securing executive speakerships, and staffing the partnerships and announcements that matter.

On the Impact side, you'll connect FICO 's software story to its community mission — shaping narratives for both B2B partners and B2C consumers, and translating how our technology advances fraud prevention and positions FICO as a data science leader and steward of data science in higher education.

This role demands strong media instincts, proven skill tailoring strategies by audience, and the confidence to navigate product teams, regions, legal, and executives with different leadership styles.
