• Establish and maintain a content performance reporting cadence (engagement, growth, and lead-generation impact where traceable) for leadership visibility.
• Partner with the VP of Sales & Marketing and the Director of Marketing as well as internal thought leaders and subject-matter experts across the company to support strategy for conference speaking engagements, panels, webinars, and other visibility opportunities that build brand authority.
• Work with company leadership on the rebrand of Guidewell Education brands, including messaging architecture, visual branding, content, and a brand communications framework.
