Communications Manager

The position is focused on telling our brand story to external audiences in Brazil and across LATAM. It will also support critical internal communications initiatives for the region.

Reporting to Honeywell’s Senior Director of Communications for Latin America and EMEA, the Senior Communications Manager will partner closely with the Regional President, as well as our wider Communications function, to shape and deliver strategic, enterprise‑aligned communications that build awareness, deepen understanding and inspire action.

This is an individual contributor role focused on hands-on execution and strategic impact for LATAM, with a particular focus on telling our energy and automation technology stories to external audiences in Brazil and the region.

The successful candidate will bring deep press contacts across Brazil’s general, energy, technology and business media landscape, and be experienced operating both strategically and tactically across the full spectrum of communications activities. Outstanding written and verbal communications skills in English and Portuguese are required – additional Spanish language capability is a plus.

Deep experience in message development and localization is a must, as is a strong understanding of the political, economic and technological shifts taking place in Brazil and the wider LATAM region, and how these shifts translate into opportunities for the industrial, energy and building sectors.
