Director of Content and Creative

Job Description

Job Description

We offer a flexible working policy that supports a healthy balance between personal and professional well-being. This role requires in-office presence on Tuesdays & Thursdays to collaborate, connect, and learn from peers - while also maintaining the flexibility for meaningful work-life balance. 

Being a Director of Content & Creative at iManage Means… 

You will lead our content and creative function for a high-growth B2B SaaS company serving the legal tech and knowledge work markets. You will own content strategy and creative execution, working in close partnership with Brand to ensure strategic alignment while building a high-performing team that operates as an internal agency across two geographic locations. 

You thrive in mid-sized growth-stage environments where agility, strategic prioritization, and doing more with less are essential. You understand how generational shifts and changing buyer behaviors are reshaping B2B marketing, particularly in professional services and legal markets. You are building AI-first ways of working — not experimenting with AI on the side but actively architecting how a modern content and creative function operates when AI is at the center of every workflow. 

This is a transformational role with a clear mandate: evolve the function from a reactive, campaign-led model to a proactive, audience-led, AI-augmented content and creative engine. You will build the operating model, the capabilities, and the culture that makes this possible — while maintaining the quality and pace the business demands today.
