This executive will partner closely with the CFO, business unit leaders, and their finance teams to develop a deep understanding of results, forecasts, and the factors driving growth, profitability, and cash flow. The role requires a strong FP&A foundation, financial modeling capabilities, and capital markets fluency. Rather than a traditional communications-led IR approach, the successful candidate will bring analytical rigor to investor engagement, earnings preparation, and market intelligence. KEY RESPONSIBILITIES Investor Relations Strategy & Financial Narrative Define and execute the investor relations strategy, aligning external messaging with Rackspace's business priorities and long-term value creation. Build an investment narrative grounded in financial analysis, operational KPIs, revenue and margin drivers, cash flow, and growth opportunities.

Challenge assumptions and develop clear, data-supported explanations of business performance. Investor & Analyst Relations Build trusted relationships with institutional investors, sell-side analysts, and other capital markets stakeholders. Partner with Apollo Global Management and its Capital Markets team on investor management, financial messaging, and market perspectives, grounded in Rackspace business performance. Understand analyst models, estimates, valuation assumptions, and questions; bring actionable market feedback to leadership. Earnings & Financial Communications Lead quarterly earnings releases, investor presentations, call scripts, executive messaging, and Q&A preparation. Work with Corporate Finance, FP&A, and business unit finance teams to ensure accuracy and consistency in external messaging. Prepare the CEO and CFO for earnings calls, investor meetings, roadshows, and analyst engagements using rigorous financial analysis. Capital Markets Intelligence & Reporting Monitor analyst estimates, stock performance, shareholder activity, market trends, and investor sentiment. Conduct peer benchmarking, valuation comparisons, and competitive financial analysis. Translate market feedback and financial analysis into actionable insights for the CFO and executive team. Regulatory & Cross-Functional Partnership Partner with Finance, Legal, and Corporate Communications on SEC disclosures and public company reporting. Ensure investor communications comply with Regulation FD and applicable disclosure requirements. Coordinate external messaging with internal financial reporting and corporate communications. LEADERSHIP SCOPE Own the Investor Relations function and external financial narrative without direct responsibility for managing FP&A.
