Content Marketer

As the Content Marketer, you’ll get to lead our digital channels and take charge of Columbia Road’s content creation and development in the Nordics. Above all, you love writing and storytelling and are eager to jump into topics that might also be unfamiliar to you. In this full-time position, you will drive our business hands-on by writing content such as blog articles, reference cases, social media posts, ad copy, reports, and guides, to name a few. You will also support Columbia Road’s talent attraction efforts by producing recruitment-focused content. You will proactively write, conduct interviews, edit, and coordinate – to find a coherent voice to convey Columbia Road’s offering and our unique culture.

You have the skills and courage to investigate, analyse, and suggest small experiments as well as bold moves to our organisation. You are great at communicating your ideas in a business-driven and goal-oriented way. We aim high and want to be thought leaders in digital sales.

Therefore, in this internal role, you will work closely with our marketing team, our sales team, and our 150+ local and global professionals to understand the local market and clients’ needs.

You will be joining our small but mighty marketing team, which consists of our Marketing Lead, Suvi, and Brand Designers Ram, Jenni, Jakob, & Jonna. The team works tightly on a global level, and marketing responsibilities are also divided within the team. You have a lot of freedom and independence in this role, but you always have the support of your colleagues, and we love to spar with each other!
