About The Role

Reporting to the Head of Content Strategy, the Senior B2B Content Marketing Manager will play a key role in elevating Niche’s brand by planning and producing expert content that engages our audience of K–12 and higher education professionals. From blog articles, white papers, and e-books to short-form videos, your work will span multiple formats and channels.

The ideal candidate is a creative and curious storyteller with a results-driven mindset and a passion for building audiences. You’re someone who’s just as comfortable writing a blog post as you are jumping on camera for a brief video or hosting a webinar. You embrace new formats and tools (including AI) to improve your work, collaborate effectively with cross-functional partners, and can manage a roster of freelancers. Experience in B2B edtech content marketing is highly desirable.

What You Will Do

During the First Month:

• Onboarding & Training: Meet the team, attend onboarding sessions, and get up to speed on tools like WordPress and Asana.
• Collaboration & Introductions: Connect with Communications, B2B Marketing, Sales, and Customer Success to understand products, tools, and key stakeholders.
• First Projects: Draft and publish a piece of content, and pitch new content ideas to learn the production process.

Within 3 Months:

• Strategic Planning: Partner with the Head of Content Strategy and cross-functional teams to draft next quarter’s B2B content plan.
• Leveraging Buyer Insights: Deepen your understanding of our audience by developing Ideal Customer Profiles (ICPs) and identifying buyer pain points to inform and shape relevant, impactful content.
• Trend & Competitor Analyses: Stay on top of industry trends and competitor moves in K–12 and higher ed to inform strategy with timely insights.

Within 6 - 12 Months:

• Content Strategy & Creation: Develop high-quality, conversion-focused content (articles, videos, landing pages) that aligns with our brand and drives measurable outcomes (e.g., MQLs/SQLs).
• Content Repurposing: Expand the reach of long-form content by adapting it into short-form assets for social, email, webinars, and more.
• Content Reach: Work with SEO, Web, and Creative teams to optimize content for discoverability and engagement.
• Campaign Development: Partner with Product, Sales, Creative, and Marketing to craft messaging and content that supports campaigns and reinforces Niche’s distinct value.
• Video & Webinar Leadership: Bring experience and enthusiasm for being in front of the camera for videos, webinars, etc.
• Innovation & Experimentation: Explore new storytelling formats and ideas to keep content fresh, engaging, and differentiated.
• Measurement & Iteration: Analyze performance metrics on an ongoing basis to evaluate content effectiveness and inform future strategy.
• Company & Industry Knowledge: Develop a deep understanding of Niche’s products, value, and the broader education landscape to create informed, impactful content.

What We Are Looking For

• B2B Content Experience: You have 7+ years of experience creating and executing content strategies in B2B environments, ideally within SaaS or edtech.
• Industry Savvy: Familiarity with the education sector, especially K–12 and/or higher ed, is a strong plus. You understand the key players, pain points, and trends shaping the space.
• Exceptional Writing Chops: You craft compelling narratives, write in a conversational tone, and know how to grab attention with sharp, effective copy and headlines.
• Multi-Channel Content Creation: You’re comfortable developing content across formats—from articles and e-books to video scripts and customer stories—and tailoring it for different audiences, channels, and use cases.
• SEO Knowledge: You understand SEO best practices and how to integrate them into content without sacrificing voice or clarity, and are eager to do the same for AEO.
• Collaborative Spirit: You thrive on cross-functional teams, working closely with Creative, Product, and Marketing partners to bring content to life.
• Data-Informed Mindset: You know how to interpret content performance metrics and use insights to optimize future work.
• Strong Project Management: You’re organized, deadline-driven, and adept at managing content calendars and coordinating input from multiple stakeholders.
• Curiosity & Creativity: You’re eager to learn, open to feedback, and always looking for new ways to tell stories and drive engagement.
