Job Description


This role exists to turn brand and SME insights into scalable, digitally optimised content that drives engagement, nurtures audiences and supports pipeline creation. Evolving from a traditional copywriting remit, the Content Specialist owns content planning, optimisation, distribution and performance, ensuring our client's insight travels further, works harder, and contributes directly to commercial outcomes.


Core Objectives – what does success from this role look like?


 Shift content from “created” to “activated” across CRM, email, LinkedIn and web
 Improve reach, engagement and nurture effectiveness without increasing content volume
 Reduce manual effort through automation, templates and AI-enabled workflows
 Support the journey from brand & engagement & pipeline


Key Responsibilities:


Content strategy & planning


 Own the content calendar across brands and regions
 Translate brand narratives, propositions and SME insights into structured content themes aligned to campaigns, sectors and personas
 Repurpose content into multi-format pieces


Digital content optimisation & distribution


 Optimise content for email nurture campaigns, LinkedIn, websites and landing pages
 Manage content tagging, segmentation logic and CTA placement to support automation
 Ensure content is designed for reuse, repurposing and scale


Automation & workflows


 Write and structure email and outbound sequences that support brand awareness, engagement and lead warming
 Build and optimise content-led nurture journeys, ensuring messaging, cadence and CTAs align to priorities
 Partner closely with sales and marketing stakeholders to shape journeys that reflect real buyer conversations and consultant insight
 Ensure content is designed for automation, segmentation and reuse, improving efficiency without losing human, SME-led tone
 Review journey performance and refine messaging based on engagement signals and commercial feedback


AI-enabled efficiency – not AI-led content!


 Use AI tools to speed up editing, repurposing and formatting, reduce admin and duplication
 Maintain human, SME-led insight at the core to input to all content
 Ensure and uphold tone of voice


Requirements


Skills & Experience:
Essential
 Strong copywriting and editing skills
 Experience creating digital-first B2B content
 Understanding of marketing automation and nurture journeys
 Ability to structure content for reuse, automation and scale
 Confident working with templates, workflows and campaign frameworks
 Highly organised and process-driven
 Comfortable working across time zones and multiple stakeholders
 Collaborative, responsive and commercially aware
 Focused on outcomes, not just outputs!
