Content Lead

We are looking for a strategic yet highly hands-on Content Lead to own and drive our end-to-end B2B content strategy. This role is responsible for turning content into a genuine growth engine - building awareness, authority, and most importantly driving qualified leads. This role is all about content that drives results, rather than content for the sake of it.

This is a fast-paced, scale-up role suited to someone commercially minded who thrives in execution, moves quickly, and knows how to use AI and modern content tools to produce high-quality output at speed. While LinkedIn is our primary channel, this role owns a multi-channel content ecosystem and has the freedom to experiment, innovate, and truly pioneer our content approach. You will have the opportunity to shape what we do in our sector — a space currently full of “same same” content — by introducing fresh formats such as webinars, video series, podcasts, and other untested channels, creating something unique and differentiated.

Based full-time in Manila, this role works closely with Australian-based leadership (head of growth marketing and CGO), manages and mentors one direct report.
