Job Summary

Drive Crescendo’s B2B content leadership by shaping CX narratives, research, and launch campaigns that convert to pipeline.

  • Own the content program from thought leadership to launches, including research, case studies, and webinars.
  • Must-have: 6–8 years in B2B content marketing at a technology company with category creation or high growth.
  • Standout: Ghost-write for founders/executives and publish original, citable research.

Job Description

Responsibilities

  • The Crescendo narrative. You ghost-write and co-create with our CEO and leadership team. You turn their conviction about the future of CX into pieces that get cited, shared, and remembered.
  • Original research. You commission and produce data stories — the kind that journalists reference and analysts quote. State of AI CX. The cost of bad customer experience. What 100% QA actually reveals.
  • The category play. We're defining agent-native CX. You write the pieces that make that frame stick — methodology content, point-of-view essays, the Crescendo equivalent of Constitutional AI.
  • Launch content. Every product announcement, press release, and launch moment needs a content arc. You build it — from the pre-announcement thought leadership to the post-launch case study.
  • Competitive campaigns. You create the content that makes Zendesk, Intercom, and Sierra displacement happen. 'Your dashboard is lying to you' isn't a tagline — it's a campaign. You build those.
  • Industry content. Banking, Finance, Healthcare, Retail. Each vertical has specific pain. You write the content that makes a COO at an insurance company feel like we built this for them.
  • Webinar program ownership. Topic selection, speaker coordination, promotion, live execution, and repurposing. A webinar isn't a one-day event — it's a content asset that runs for six months.
  • Event content. Before, during, and after. Pre-event thought leadership. Live social amplification. Post-event repurposing into blog posts, clips, email sequences, and sales assets.
  • Customer stories. You interview customers, find the insight buried in their results, and turn it into a case study that closes deals. Not a quote and a logo — a story with a real before and after.

Requirements

  • 6-8 years in B2B content marketing, ideally at a technology company in a category-creation or high-growth phase
  • A portfolio of work you're proud of — thought leadership, research reports, campaign content, case studies. Not a content factory. Specific pieces with specific results
  • Genuine AI fluency. You use AI tools daily. You have a workflow. You can show us how you produce more without losing quality
  • Strong editorial instincts. You know the difference between content that earns attention and content that fills a calendar. You fight for the former
  • Comfortable working with technical subject matter experts to extract insight and turn it into something a non-technical buyer finds compelling
  • Experience owning a webinar or event content program — not just contributing to one
  • Track record of connecting content decisions to pipeline outcomes. You know what worked and why

Preferred

  • You've worked in B2B SaaS in a category-creation environment — where the market didn't have language for what you were building and you helped invent it
  • You've ghost-written for a founder or executive and can match a voice that isn't yours
  • You've published original research — not just curated statistics — that got cited externally
  • You have a point of view on where B2B content is going that most people in the field would push back on
