At  Thomas, we're revolutionizing the manufacturing industry with our cutting-edge omnichannel growth marketing strategies. 

 

We are seeking a Manager, Content Marketing & Strategy to lead a team of content strategists, while serving as a hands-on editorial authority and senior point of contact for mission-critical accounts, and helping shape the future of marketing through applied AI and the evolution of scalable content products and processes within our marketing organization.

 

This role is ideal for a leader who both enjoys building teams and being hands-on with execution when needed, elevating craft, and is comfortable going down the AI frontier rabbit holes to understand where it does and does not make sense.

  • Lead, mentor, and develop a team of content strategists and editors across multiple manufacturing and industrial verticals
  • Set clear standards for content quality, strategic thinking, and client engagement
  • Serve as the senior escalation point for content-related challenges, delivery risks, or customer concerns
  • Provide guidance and intervention on mission-critical accounts when the stakes, visibility, or complexity are high

A confident team that knows when to escalate, trusts leadership support, and consistently delivers high-quality work for even the most demanding accounts.

 

Pillar 2: Content Strategy, Editorial Excellence & Client Stewardship

Primary goal: Ensure content excellence and strategic alignment for both core programs and high-visibility customer work.

  • Provide direct editorial and strategic involvement for mission-critical customers, especially during launches, repositions, or escalations
  • Shape content strategies for integrated campaigns, account-based initiatives, and industry-specific programs
  • Translate complex manufacturing, engineering, and industrial topics into compelling, customer-centric narratives
  • Ensure content aligns with brand voice, messaging frameworks, buyer-journey intent, and customer objectives, while also leveraging SEO best practices
  • Establish repeatable editorial frameworks that scale across clients and verticals

Success looks like:

Customers view content as a strategic asset, trust leadership involvement during critical moments, and see consistent quality across engagements.

 

Pillar 3: AI Strategy, Experimentation & Enablement (Including Client Impact)

Primary goal: Apply AI in ways that improve outcomes for teams and customers—without compromising trust or quality.

  • Act as a senior AI content strategist within marketing, with awareness of client-facing implications
  • Evaluate and pilot AI tools that support content creation, editing, research, optimization, and campaign planning, eventually broadening AI discovery into other marketing areas
  • Design and evolve the prompt frameworks, parameters, and governance standards that guide AI-generated content
  • Ensure AI usage enhances speed and insight while protecting brand voice, accuracy, and client confidence - providing editorial refinement and QA for AI-generated drafts
  • Enable teams and stakeholders through documentation, training, and transparent communication
  • Demonstrated ability to strategically apply AI content-generation tools, including prompt design and refinement, with an understanding of model capabilities, limitations, and governance considerations
  • Define when AI workflows transition from experimentation into standardized, repeatable practice across the content organization

Success looks like:

AI is used responsibly and confidently—even in high-stakes scenarios—because processes are well-defined and trusted.

  • 7–10 years of experience in content marketing or strategy, with a proven track record of delivering measurable performance improvements and presenting strategic recommendations to senior stakeholders

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
