Uber is evolving the way the world moves. By seamlessly connecting riders
to drivers through our apps, we make cities more accessible, opening up
more possibilities for riders and more business for drivers. From our
founding in 2009 to our launches in over 320+ cities today, Uber’s
rapidly expanding global presence continues to bring people and their
cities closer.
We Are Looking For Someone To Work On Our Communications Team In West Africa, Based In Lagos.
Communications Senior Associate, West Africa
This Role, Will Involve
- Supporting Uber communications in West Africa;
- Establishing Uber’s brand and profile with the media and third parties; and
- Working to tell our story—and the story of
ridesharing—in creative, inspiring ways that resonate with
journalists and on social media.
What We’re Looking For
To succeed you’ll need to be:
- A self starter: Uber is a company of entrepreneurs
and we want to work with people who enjoy
building things from the bottom up too. Stuff changes fast in our world
so you’ll need to be highly adaptable as well as calm under pressure;
- A great advocate: We’re looking for people who can distill complex
ideas into simple, but intellectually credible, arguments. You’ll need
to write well and have the creative ability to tell
stories—about our product, people and the ways we’re helping
to improve life for passengers, drivers and cities.
- A strong campaigner: Smartphone apps are disruptive, and the
interests being disrupted are deeply entrenched. We succeed by putting
together effective campaigns with third parties on behalf of the
passengers and drivers who use the app. That means you’ll have a bias
for action in everything you do—and a willingness to engage in
debates, that can often become heated.
- A team player: Success at Uber depends on the ability to organize
different teams (internally and externally) around shared goals. It’s
why we’re looking for well organized people who enjoy working with
others to get stuff done—and who can deal with the ambiguity
that sometimes comes from working cross-functionally.
Ideally you would have 5+ years communications experience. But we’re
open to people with experience in other walks of life (e.g. marketing,
journalism, the law), who intuitively get this stuff and are interested
in pursuing a different career. Fluency in English, both oral and
written, is essential
