Senior Manager, Content Marketing and Social

Relay is a digital banking platform that gives self-made business owners the tools and know-how to be great with money—bringing clarity, confidence, and control to every dollar earned, so they can turn hard work into lasting success. We do this by replacing financial guesswork with real visibility, transforming cash flow from a constant source of stress into a clear signal owners can use to run stronger, more resilient businesses.

We’re looking for a Senior Manager, Content Marketing and Social to own and scale Relay’s content marketing and social strategy. You’ll bring strategic storytelling, creative instinct, data-driven decision-making, and an audience-first approach to help define how Relay shows up for our customers and prospects.
