Our users and buyers are specialists: threat intel analysts, SOC operators, OSINT investigators, financial crime teams, law enforcement. Their world runs on tradecraft and know-how. That expertise comes from our Product Marketing Manager, internal subject matter experts, customers, and external voices. You won't be writing the original thought leadership. You'll orchestrate it: brief the experts, edit their drafts, package their work, ship it, and turn each piece into a family of assets that reach every ICP across every channel we play in.
You'll report to the Head of Marketing, manage a Marketing Specialist, and partner with our Product Marketing Manager and other internal and external subject matter experts who fuel the content pipeline. You're a fit if you treat AI as a force multiplier (not a novelty), obsess over performance metrics, love a good A/B test, and get satisfaction from watching a bounce rate drop or a page climb the SERP.
What You'll Own:
- Serve as the primary owner of authentic8.com. You're the one accountable for what's on it, how it performs, and how fast we can change it
- Partner with internal operations and external web developers to plan, prioritize, and ship updates
- Manage the content roadmap across the homepage, product pages, use case pages, resource hub, and landing pages
- Keep the site fast, clean, and aligned to current positioning as messaging and products evolve
- Fix what's broken (links, forms, tracking, SEO issues) and prevent regressions
- Own the content marketing roadmap and editorial calendar, aligned to ICP (segment + vertical + use case) and full-funnel buyer journey (awareness to consideration to conversion to retention and upsell)
- Identify content gaps and pitch new ideas grounded in ICP needs, competitive dynamics, and search demand
- Prioritize what gets built next based on pipeline impact, not opinions
- Brief internal SMEs (Product, CTO, Sales, CS) and external voices (customers, partners, industry experts). Get them what they need to contribute, and manage the intake of their drafts
- Edit, refine, and package SME-driven content into publishable assets: blog posts, videos, case studies, solution briefs, whitepapers, webinars, newsletters, and nurture emails
- Partner with external designers, video producers, and editors to scale output without dropping quality
- Make sure every asset connects to something else: no orphan content, no siloed asset. Every piece has a place in a buyer journey
Lead and develop the team:
- Manage a Marketing Specialist who runs our organic social program. Set clear priorities, coach on craft, and unblock them
- Make sure organic social pulls from the same content strategy and asset library, so social becomes another distribution channel for the engine (not a side project)
- Build the content function as a repeatable, high-output engine, not a hero-driven scramble
- Bring the team along on AI workflows so productivity compounds
- SEO, AEO (Answer Engine Optimization), and GEO across the website, blog, and long-form assets
- Keyword research covering paid and organic terms for our products and competitors
- Heading structure, semantic keyword density, meta descriptions, and schema
- FAQ and content structure that makes our pages LLM-scrapable and citable in ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and Perplexity answers
- Third-party content placement to build authority signals
- Break long-form content (whitepapers, webinars, podcasts) into blog series, LinkedIn carousels, email sequences, short-form video, and sales enablement snippets
- Use AI workflows to repurpose at scale without losing quality or voice
- Daisy-chain smaller assets to drive deeper engagement and gated conversions
Optimize for conversion at every stage:
- Landing page optimization: tight CTA alignment, low cognitive load, clear pain/solution, social proof, single action
- CTA and offer testing by funnel stage (TOFU awareness, MOFU consideration, BOFU decision)
- A/B testing variants of pages, headlines, offers, and creative
- Improve scroll depth, dwell time, CTR, and bounce rate on key pages
- Track content contribution to MQLs, opportunities, and revenue, not just traffic
- Distinguish bot/engine traffic from human intent
- Feed insights back into the content roadmap so we double down on what converts
What We're Looking For:
- 7+ years of B2B content marketing experience, with meaningful time in a fast-paced startup or scale-up
- Experience managing and developing direct reports
- Direct experience owning a company website end-to-end, working with internal operations and external developers
- Proven ability to build and run an editorial calendar aligned to ICPs, use cases, and the full buyer journey
- Track record of orchestrating SME-driven content: briefing internal and external experts, editing their drafts, and packaging their expertise into ICP-facing assets
- Deep SEO fluency: technical, on-page, keyword strategy, and content architecture
- Working knowledge of AEO and GEO. You've already been experimenting with how to show up in AI answers
- Hands-on with AI tools for content repurposing, editing, and personalization at scale. You treat AI as an extension of your capabilities, not a threat to your craft
- Proven track record of measurable content wins: organic traffic lift, ranking improvements, conversion rate gains, or pipeline contribution
- Exceptional editing and copywriting chops. You can turn a rough SME draft into a publishable asset, rework a headline, sharpen a CTA, or restructure a landing page without needing hand-holding.
- Strong project management. You can juggle a dozen assets across a dozen channels without dropping the ball.
- Able to bring your best practices to the table and enhance current processes. Confident to present those ideas to key stakeholders
- Comfortable with the tools listed and confident pulling your own reports:Google Analytics, Google Search Console, Google Tag Manager, WordPress, Claude Code, SEMrush, Asana, Zoom, Google Workspace Suite, Frontify content management system
What success looks like in year 1:
- You've taken clean ownership of the website and improved its performance on the metrics that matter (organic traffic, ranking, conversion, page speed)
- Editorial calendar is running on rhythm, mapped to ICP and funnel stage, and every planned asset ships on time
- SME-to-published pipeline is smooth. Experts contribute, drafts land, assets ship, and no one is waiting on you.
- Your direct report is growing. Their output and range are visibly stronger than at the start of the year.
- Every high-priority page and asset is optimized for search, AEO, and conversion
- Content library is auditable, decay is managed, and we know what's working
- Repurposing engine is running: each major asset produces at least 5-8 derivative pieces
- Measurable lift in organic traffic, ranking for target keywords, and content-attributed pipeline
- We're consistently cited in AI answer engines for our ICP's most important questions
