About the Role
CDI is seeking a versatile, fast, and editorially sharp Communications & Content Manager to serve as the production engine behind our communications and thought leadership. You will turn CDI's research and point of view into a steady stream of high-quality, on-message content that grows our audience and strengthens our reputation.
Responsibilities
- Manage the editorial calendar and owned content.
- Write, build, and send CDI's higher education newsletter, and produce the blog, maintaining a reliable publishing cadence, growing our audience over time, and holding a high bar for quality, accuracy, and on-message voice.
- Run a single, unified organic social calendar across brand, executive, and thought-leadership content, coordinating contributions from across the team to grow reach and engagement.
- Collaborate with Partnerships and Marketing to align communications initiatives with other key workstreams such as webinars and conferences, tailor content for target segments, and sequence content for outsized pipeline impact.
- Produce and repurpose thought leadership.
- Turn CDI's research (white papers, briefs, studies) into a full family of related content, blog posts, op-ed drafts, social posts, and newsletter features, maximizing the reach of each release.
- Draft and package thought-leadership content while our subject-matter experts provide the underlying substance.
- Coordinate production timelines with the Impact team and our subject-matter experts so content ships on time without overloading contributors.
- Support earned media and track coverage.
- Help build and maintain CDI's press lists, draft pitches, and support the VP in securing media coverage.
- Track and log CDI's media coverage and mentions, contributing to CDI's earned-media goals.
- Build more direct media relationships over time, as your familiarity with CDI's work grows.
- Produce marketing collateral and maintain brand standards.
- Produce audience-facing marketing collateral, directing external designers to a high standard and on deadline.
- Maintain and steward CDI's brand templates and standards (set with the VP), and run the intake and triage process for design requests.
- Produce marketing case studies and testimonials, partnering with the Demand Generation lead (who selects and secures permissions) and the Impact team (who supports research).
Requirements
- 5+ years in communications, content marketing, editorial, or journalism, ideally in a mission-driven, B2B, higher education, or advocacy context.
- Portfolio of published work across formats (newsletters, articles or blogs, social, long-form).
- Experience thinking in calendars, cadences, and systems, and managing multiple content pieces simultaneously.
- Experience thriving in a startup or scrappy environment, driving execution independently while building for scale.
- Exceptional writing and editing skills, producing clear, accurate, on-message content across many formats quickly.
- Ability to work fluidly across subject-matter experts, marketing, and partnerships colleagues, keeping work on track without constant direction.
- Understanding of what makes a story newsworthy and comfort drafting pitches and building press relationships.
- Strong eye for brand and design, ability to direct external designers, and maintain brand consistency.
- Political astuteness and mission alignment, with judgment to communicate constructively and credibly across ideological lines.
- Comfort with content and marketing tools (a CMS, an email platform such as HubSpot, social schedulers).
- Proficiency in using modern AI tools to accelerate drafting and production while prioritizing human editing and judgment.
