About the Role
Twitch is where millions of people show up every day to watch, create, and build communities around the things they love—from sports and gaming to music, art, and everyday life. Creators and communities on Twitch are shaping culture, and we’re looking for a Global Communications Lead to help tell those stories around the world.

You’ll bring our global story to life locally, translating what’s happening on the service into narratives that resonate with regional audiences and media.
That might mean spotlighting a creator who’s built a thriving community, helping explain new product features, or sharing how livestreaming is influencing culture in real time.
