ABOUT THE ROLE We’re looking for a Content Marketing Manager focused on first-party and third-party events (examples include OpenAI DevDay, AWS re:Invent and vertical summits).

YOU MIGHT THRIVE IN THIS ROLE, IF YOU HAVE: - Experience in content marketing, editorial, product marketing or event content, with a portfolio of keynote or breakout presentations and a clear account of their contribution. - Strong writing and editing skills, including the ability to build a narrative, explain technical subjects clearly and write for spoken delivery. - Experience interviewing subject-matter experts and working directly with speakers through reviews and rehearsals. - The curiosity and judgment to research unfamiliar topics, test the strength of an argument and verify claims with the right experts. - Experience collaborating with demo, creative or production teams to bring a story to life. - The ability to manage defined content projects across multiple stakeholders and deadlines while maintaining a high editorial standard. - Practical experience using AI tools to support research, drafting and iteration, with careful review of the final work.
