The Role
We’re looking for a highly capable, hands-on Content Creator who can take rough ideas, bullet points, conversations, and recordings, and turn them into exceptional written and visual content.
This is a creation-first role. You’ll be writing, filming, editing, shaping narratives, and extracting “the gold” from people and moments. Strategy exists, but execution is the priority.
What You’ll Do
Writing & Editorial
- Turn bullet points, rough notes, and conversations into polished content such as blog posts, thought leadership pieces, white papers, and landing pages
- Write confidently across different tones, audiences, and formats
- Take technical or complex ideas and make them clear, engaging, and readable
- Deliver strong first drafts that require minimal rework
- Prepare sales materials such as, RFPs, RFI, sales decks, one-pagers, three-pagers, etc.
Content Extraction & Storytelling
- Sit in on conversations or walkthroughs with team members and extract compelling content
- Ask thoughtful follow-up questions to uncover what truly matters
- Help communicate who we are as humans - not just what we do
Video & Content Days
- Run regular “content days” with leadership and team members
- Record video (primarily iPhone-level capture is fine)
- Edit footage into short-form video clips for social and other channels
- Extract written content ideas directly from video recordings
Social & Publishing
- Publish content to our social media channels
- Repurpose long-form content into short-form formats
- Create and maintain content calendars (you’ve done this before and know what good looks like)
Events & On-Site Content
- Attend conferences and events (travel required)
- Capture photos and video that tell a story - even if it’s just using your phone
- Create post-event narratives and recap content
What You Bring
- Exceptional writing fundamentals: you can adapt your style easily and write with clarity and confidence
- Strong knowledge of LinkedIn
- Proven ability to turn rough inputs into polished outputs
- Strong editing instincts (written and video)
- Naturally curious: you ask great questions and go deeper than surface-level answers
- Emotionally intelligent: people feel good talking to you, and it shows in the work
- Comfort owning content end-to-end, from idea to execution to publication
- Comfortable travelling for conferences and events
Nice to have
- Journalism background
- Comfortable appearing on camera yourself (bonus, not required)
- Personal creative projects (writing, video, photography, etc.)
Who This Role is NOT For:
To respect everyone’s time and set this role up for success, we want to be transparent about what doesn’t match with our needs for this role. This role is not a fit if:
- You primarily identify as a marketer or strategist and prefer planning over creating
- You rely heavily on templates, frameworks, or AI to do the thinking for you
- You need extremely detailed instructions before producing good work
- You’re uncomfortable asking questions or digging beneath surface-level answers
- You prefer polishing content that someone else has already fully formed
- You’re unable or unwilling to travel for events and conferences
Additional Information
We hire based on your skills and achievements. The team you can be part of is highly skilled and diverse, where everyone’s background, identity, and perspectives are welcomed.
