• Own all touchpoints for creating social proof at Zinc, partnering across Revenue, Marketing and Customer.
• Execute on our G2 review strategy, supporting the content manager in finding the key moments to prompt advocates into reviewing us.

• Own Senja, our review and testimonial platform, to collect and share reviews and testimonials across the business and our website

• Find creative opportunities to get Zinc mentioned in relevant publications and PR opportunities, both in and outside of traditional PR efforts
• Turn product updates, new content, and thought leadership into punchy press releases, using freelance support where needed
• Impact how PR can influence Zinc's wider content strategy for the AI era

Every week looks different - if you love writing, switching gears, and being part of a friendly, ambitious team, you'll fit right in.

• Experience in a small, fast-paced team (startup environment = big bonus)
• Curiosity about SEO and how organic content grows brand reach

• Creative and performance-minded (you know your way around the data)
• Low ego - loves feedback, collaboration, and iteration
