Content Marketing Writer, Principal

Overview

You will be a highly effective content creator on the content team, owning a broad range of diverse projects with agility, versatility, and high-volume output. You are adept at sourcing relevant new content ideas; collecting—and filtering input from customer facing teams, and leveraging subject matter experts for source materials and factual reviews; and developing and owning the editorial narrative of content assets to support inbound demand generation and MDR outbound activities. 

You are adept at utilizing your domain knowledge in the Life Sciences, Healthcare, and/or Pharma industries to build persona-based messages and intentionally test message effectiveness to determine what works. 

You think strategically about how each asset fits into solution go-to-market plans—whether it’s top-of-the-funnel education or deeper and solution-focused; are always driving to engage, progress, and convert our target audiences. You stay focused on what will move the needle, and are able to filter out distractions that don’t contribute to our primary business goals.  

You have superior writing and self-editing skills, requiring fewer review cycles.  You are flexible, moving seamlessly from short-form and long-form assets, and are able to independently keep on top of many moving pieces.
