• Work cross-functionally with growth, product marketing, regional marketing, and campaigns teams to ensure content is aligned with strategic priorities and pipeline targets
• Oversee content production for blogs, whitepapers, reports, videos, web content, social campaigns, and more
• Establish clear performance metrics and use analytics to inform decisions and improve results
• Implement scalable content workflows, editorial standards, and QA processes for a fast-moving environment
• Manage agency partners and freelance contributors as needed to support regional demand

• Proven success scaling content operations for a high-growth B2B SaaS company, ideally across multiple geographic markets and organisation segments
• Experience leading multi-language or localized content efforts and collaborating with regional stakeholders
• Deep understanding of SEO, digital channels, and how content drives performance across the funnel
• Familiarity with AI tools and developing AI-assisted content workflows
