Senior Content Creator Editorial — Houston, TX

OVERVIEW

The Senior Content Creator, Editorial is a hands-on creative lead who both produces great editorial content and raises the bar for the team producing it. This role combines strong writing and editorial skills with visual design and video capabilities to bring the company's newsletters, email communications and website content to life —

while leading a team of Content Creators, Editorial, reviewing their work and developing their craft. Briefs are staffed and assigned by the pod's Resource Coordinator; this role owns the creative and editorial quality of the work once it lands with the team.

This is a player-coach role: equal parts maker and team lead, comfortable taking an assignment from brief through polished execution while also elevating the work of the creators around them.
