What are the responsibilities and job description for the Internal Communications Coordinator position at Clarios?
Position Overview
Clarios is in the middle of an internal transformation campaign focused on our U.S. and Canada operations. Our frontline manufacturing employees are at the heart of this effort—and so is the communication that keeps them informed, engaged, and inspired. At the same time, our headquarters teams also need consistent, high-quality communications that strengthen culture and drive connection.
The Internal Communications Coordinator is a hands-on role designed for a do-er who can roll up their sleeves and deliver on both fronts. This person will create, coordinate, and distribute content that brings our transformation story to life while also managing the day-to-day rhythm of HQ communications.
From newsletters and org announcements to HR updates, portal stories, event support, and employee recognition, this role is about making things happen. The Coordinator will take ownership of sending out communications through GoHappy and Poppulo, while also supporting on-the-ground activities like community and employee events and HQ celebrations.
We’re looking for someone who thrives in a fast-paced environment, enjoys variety, and is excited to learn new skills while leading with strong communications skills.
Why Clarios?
Clarios powers one in three of the world’s vehicles, yet our greatest strength is the people behind the batteries. This position is central to keeping our employees connected to each other, our mission, and the communities where we work. By joining the Clarios communications team, you’ll help shape the daily employee experience, bringing stories, events, and information to life in ways that build pride, culture, and engagement.
