We’re looking for a Senior Manager of Internal Communications to lead strategic, high-impact communications for DiDi’s Fintech business.
This role sits within the External Affairs team — alongside External Communications (PR), Government Affairs, and Measurement & Insights — and will work closely with these functions to ensure integrated messaging and alignment. You’ll also partner deeply with cross-functional teams including HR, Marketing, and Product to ensure Fintech narratives are consistent, engaging, and connected to the broader company mission. Success in this role requires the ability to influence senior stakeholders, navigate a complex matrix organization, and build communication frameworks from the ground up. Autonomy and senior-level decision-making are expected.
You will operate at the intersection of storytelling, leadership engagement, and organizational alignment, building integrated strategies that connect our Fintech teams to the broader company vision. This role demands exceptional narrative skills, cross-cultural collaboration, and the ability to deliver in a fast-paced, matrix-driven environment.

Advise and support the Head of IBG Fintech and leadership team on executive communications, including message delivery, written updates, videos, and events.
Increase leadership visibility through strategic profiling, thought leadership initiatives, and engagement campaigns.
2. Content & Channel Management
Create compelling, employee-focused materials — presentations, internal posts, and multimedia — that bring Fintech milestones, priorities, and initiatives to life.
Ensure consistent messaging across key channels, including intranet, D-Chat, D-Channel, newsletters, and email, for both Fintech teams and the wider organization.
3. Events & Engagement

Serve as a key point of contact for internal messaging on Fintech-related crisis communications, ensuring timely, accurate, and aligned responses to all stakeholders.
5. People, Partners & Performance
Lead and mentor any Fintech IC team members, contractors, or interns, setting clear objectives and providing constructive feedback to drive high performance and growth.
Build and maintain strong relationships with suppliers and vendors, conducting regular performance reviews to ensure quality, timeliness, and cost-effectiveness.
Oversee engagement tracking, analysis, and reporting against OKRs — using surveys, focus groups, and other feedback mechanisms to make data-driven improvements.
