POSITION SUMMARY
UpKeep has strong roots with the practitioners and managers who run day-to-day maintenance operations. The next phase of growth requires earning the attention and trust of the directors, VPs, and C-suite leaders who control budget, drive strategic decisions, and champion platforms across their organizations.
The Brand & Content Marketing Manager will lead that shift. This role owns how UpKeep shows up across every owned channel: the website, content, social, video, and webinars. The mandate is to build a brand that resonates with executive-level buyers without losing the credibility we’ve earned with the frontline audience who uses and advocates for the product every day.
This is a high-ownership role for someone who can think at the strategic level, write and create at a high standard, and build programs that scale.
ESSENTIAL FUNCTIONS AND RESPONSIBILITIES
Executive Audience Development
- Build and execute a content strategy designed to reach and resonate with director, VP, and C-suite buyers in asset-intensive industries.
- Develop thought leadership positioning for UpKeep that speaks to operational efficiency, capital planning, and digital transformation at the leadership level.
- Create and run a webinar program targeting executive audiences: recruiting guest speakers, building co-branded content, and ensuring programs are tied to pipeline.

Content Strategy & Creation
- Develop and execute a content roadmap spanning blog, customer stories, video, and branded design, using AI to accelerate research, briefing, and first-draft production.
- Prioritize formats that build credibility with executive buyers: in-depth reports, benchmark data, executive interview series, and webinar recordings.
- Use AI tools to accelerate content repurposing across channels, turning a single webinar or report into blog posts, social clips, email copy, and more without proportional increases in headcount.
- Ensure all content reflects a consistent brand voice that works across the buying committee, from the technician to the CFO.
SEO & Organic Growth
- Own UpKeep’s SEO strategy and execution: keyword targeting, on-page optimization, backlink development, and traffic performance reporting, leveraging AI tools to identify opportunities and automate analysis at scale.
- Vet, select, and manage SEO vendors or agencies where relevant.
- Tie SEO work to measurable outcomes including traffic growth, lead volume, and pipeline attribution.
Social & Brand
- Maintain and evolve UpKeep’s presence on LinkedIn, YouTube, and emerging channels.
- Build coordinated brand campaigns that connect across blog, social, video, and webinar programs.
- Develop an executive social strategy, including content that supports UpKeep leaders building their own thought leadership presence.
Team & Cross-Functional Work
- Define content workflows, publishing cadences, and internal review processes, building AI into production steps to increase team output without sacrificing quality.
- Partner closely with Product Marketing on launches, campaigns, and positioning.
- Work with Sales and Customer Success to source customer stories and identify executive reference opportunities.
- Coordinate external partners (Web, SEO, designers, production vendors) to execute key programs.
EXPERIENCE
- 5+ years in content marketing, brand, or digital marketing, with at least 2 years in B2B SaaS or a comparable enterprise software environment.

- Track record of growing organic traffic and building content programs from a strategy through to execution.

KNOWLEDGE
- Strong editorial judgment with the ability to write and edit at a high standard across multiple formats and audience levels.
- Deep understanding of content SEO, including keyword research, on-page optimization, and how content drives pipeline.
- Comfortable with data: able to pull insights from analytics platforms, build a content performance report, and use data to make decisions.
- Hands-on experience with CMS platforms, marketing automation, SEO tools, and AI writing and research tools. Active use of AI in your current workflow is required, not a plus.
- Strong project management skills and a clear track record of shipping work on time across multiple concurrent priorities.
- Ability to translate technical product capabilities into language that resonates with executive and operational audiences.
