Director, Internal Communications

Location: San Francisco, CA

Build the narrative—and the voice—that powers Okta.

We’re looking for a Director of Internal Communications to lead how Okta informs, aligns, and inspires its global workforce—while shaping the voice of our most senior leaders.

This is a high-impact leadership role at the center of the company—at a defining moment. The AI platform shift is reshaping every company and every industry, and Okta is all-in. That means defining the internal narrative and ensuring our employees understand where we’re going, why it matters, and what it means for them.

Why this role is different

Okta is making a deliberate choice: to move faster, compete aggressively, and go all-in on becoming the company that secures AI at global scale—the blueprint for the secure agentic enterprise. You’ll define the company’s internal narrative centered on how Okta secures AI and ensure it is consistently and authentically carried by our leadership. You’ll create the drumbeat that reinforces it—turning complex strategy into clear, memorable, and actionable messaging. And you'll make sure that how we communicate internally reflects the same urgency, boldness, and ownership we're asking of every employee.

This role isn't for someone who wants to maintain the status quo. It's for someone who sees this moment for what it is: a chance to help lead one of the most consequential platform shifts since the internet and to build the internal narrative that brings an entire company along for the ride.
