Government organizations and agencies need Communications Managers as well, so this job is appropriate for both the public and the private sector.

    Is there any public speaking involved?

    The answer to this question can vary from company to company. Companies may have someone else conduct press conferences or act as a formal spokesperson, but public speaking can be part of the Communications Manager’s job as well. If this is going to be a part of your job description, make sure it’s mentioned directly that public speaking is one of the necessary skills. Depending on the size of the company, a Communications Manager may even need to have experience being on camera if they’re going to act as a media liaison.

    Does a Communications Manager need industry knowledge?

    While industry knowledge is more of a bonus than a requirement when starting in a position, it’s essential for a Communications Manager to have extensive knowledge about the products and/or services that the entity they’re working for offers.
