The posting

EQT is recruiting an experienced Vice President to its global communications team. We are looking for someone with proven media relations, strong project leadership skills, M&A comms experience, and a deep interest in current affairs, who would like to work as part of an integrated corporate affairs team in a purpose-driven global investment organisation.

About the Team

EQT's Corporate Affairs team works to build the firm’s reputation by delivering Communications and Public Affairs activities globally. The diverse global team is based in Hong Kong, London, New York, Oslo, Singapore and Stockholm.

About the Role

As Vice President, Communications, you will lead the development and execution of communications strategies for major firm announcements, including M&A and fundraises, while contributing to EQT's broader profile-raising efforts. You will work closely with the Head of Corporate Affairs in the Americas and collaborate with colleagues across Europe and Asia, with real autonomy to shape and own your communications strategies. In addition, you will have the opportunity to work on cross-functional initiatives, such as Integrated marketing campaigns and Public Affairs projects. The role will be based in New York or Chicago and is permanent & full-time.

  • Lead proactive and reactive media relations, including story-mining, pitching, and building strong journalist relationships

  • Work autonomously on complex, concurrent workstreams while maintaining strong quality standards and meeting deadlines

You are a thoughtful, proactive communications professional who is as comfortable crafting a nuanced, multi-stakeholder comms strategy as you are rolling up your sleeves to draft a press release. You thrive in an international, fast-moving environment and are energized by working across cultures and functions.

What you'll bring (must-have):

  • 5-7 years of relevant experience in corporate communications, either in-house or at a communications or PR agency, including some background in private capital or financial services
  • Proven experience in proactive media relations, including direct journalist outreach and pitching across financial or business media
  • Excellent written communication skills, with the ability to translate complex topics into clear, compelling narratives
  • Demonstrated project management capability, with experience leading multiple workstreams simultaneously and delivering to deadline
  • Experience developing communications strategies for significant corporate announcements (transactions, capital raises, or similar)
  • Familiarity with working cross-functionally in a matrixed or global organisation
  • Comfort operating at both strategic and executional levels — from advising on approach to producing the final materials

Nice to have:

  • Experience in private equity, asset management, or broader financial services.
  • Exposure to investor relations or capital markets communications
  • Experience working across multiple geographies or time zones as part of a global team

What We Offer

  • The opportunity to help shape EQT’s external voice and brand through high-impact communications.
