Content Marketing Strategist (16 Month Contract)

The Purpose of the Role

We are hiring an experienced Content Marketing Strategist to work in tandem with our Demand Gen Manager, to help scale Social Nature’s B2B brand and content marketing to attract more health & wellness brands to our digital sampling and consumer insights platform.

When a natural / organic brand is looking to launch new products and acquire new customers, we want them thinking of Social Nature!

We are a lean marketing team with big dreams, that hires rockstar talent that helps us get to where we want to go quickly.

If you have a track record of creating content that helps businesses build their brand online and grow top of funnel leads, then we want to hear from you.

While this is a 16 month maternity leave contract position, there is potential for a permanent position following the contract end.

Your day to day will be producing great content that gets B2B marketers to click to learn more. One day you might be interviewing our brand customers for a case study, another day you might be developing a 7 touch email sequence to 5 different customer segments to convert and nurture leads, and on another you might be developing a presentation deck, ad copy and landing page for a webinar we are hosting.

Some days you might be getting new consumer insights and data from the community team to share in our B2B marketing and others you might be working with the product team to develop key messages for our new product launch.

In between this, you are thinking of ways to simplify our brand positioning and brand communications so that all of our content is singing the same tune.

To be successful in this role, you must be a quick synthesizer that can take a creative idea and turn it into 3 different pieces of content, easily adapt your writing style to the tone, persona and distribution channel, and have experience in B2B marketing communications - we are marketers selling to marketers.
