The right CCO will ensure your communications align and deliver value

What is a CCO?

CCO is an acronym typically used for Chief Communications Officer. 

A Chief Communications Officer is responsible for managing an organization’s internal and external communication strategies. Note that CCO can also be used for Chief Customer Officer, Chief Commercial Officer or Chief Compliance Officer.

What is a CCO’s role in an organisation?

The CCO’s role is to develop and execute a internal and external communications strategy that supports the organization’s goals. They are often also responsible for building and maintaining relationships with stakeholders, including the media, investors, employees, and customers as well as managing crisis communications and developing plans to address potential issues that may arise.

A CCO will also provide guidance and support to other departments on communication matters, including marketing, public relations, and investor relations.

How to find a great CCO?

There’s currently quite a lot of competition on the job market for experienced leaders. Typically leaders of this rank are found with the help of a headhunter. It is also the way many leaders are accustomed to change jobs and they rarely browse job ads, but rather wait to be contacted or they contact a headhunter themselves.

At Compass HRG we recruit on average a leader a day. What we’ve noticed is that successful recruits are the result of careful match making. A good headhunter can read the hiring organization and see what the organization needs. On the other hand a good headhunter knows what kind of a person is motivated to jump into any given organization.

THE RIGHT MATCH DOES NOT COME BY ITSELF
