Director of Content Marketing
Toast is driven by building the restaurant platform that helps restaurants adapt, take control, and get back to what they do best: building the businesses they love.
We’re looking for a Director of Content and Organic Marketing to own the vision and strategy for the next phase of Toast’s world-class content and SEO programs. In this leadership role, you’ll identify new ways to drive business value through these two critical demand channels for the business, and you’ll build and coach the high-performing team that will help us get there.
You’ll lead the prioritization, budgeting, and resourcing of our content and SEO investments and develop a content strategy that serves our business’ needs. You’ll partner closely with department leads to ensure we have a cohesive and effective content strategy that sets us up to scale as we enter new categories and broaden the role of content within the business. You’ll bring together content across the full customer journey and educate the business on the value and influence of a seamless end-to-end educational experience for our customers — attracting new prospects to Toast, engaging them as part of the community, educating them about our products, and ultimately connecting with them on a personal level as they grow their businesses and careers with Toast.
