Marketing & Communications

Salesforce is the #1 AI CRM, where humans with agents drive customer success together. Here, ambition meets action. Tech meets trust. And innovation isn’t a buzzword — it’s a way of life. The world of work as we know it is changing and we're looking for Trailblazers who are passionate about bettering business and the world through AI, driving innovation, and keeping Salesforce's core values at the heart of it all.

Slack is redefining what it means to work — not just with other people, but with AI. As the multiplayer OS for AI, Slack is the only place where human and agent collaboration actually happens 're looking for a senior content strategist and writer who can make that story impossible to ignore.

This is a hands‑on creative role for someone who thinks in narratives and writes in arguments. You'll own Slack's most important external content — from category‑defining whitepapers and trend reports to launch narratives and executive thought leadership — and set the editorial standard for how Slack shows up in the market.

You’ll report to the Director of External Narrative & Influence and work at the center of product marketing, editorial strategy, and market storytelling.

• Define and own Slack's editorial POV — develop the ideas, angles, and arguments that make Slack's content worth reading; go beyond feature explanation to genuine market insight
• Write and produce anchor thought leadership — whitepapers, trend reports, narrative essays, and POV pieces that establish Slack's position at the frontier of how AI and humans work together
• Own content for major product launches — develop the content narrative for Slack's biggest moments; translate product and messaging into content that earns attention and drives pipeline
• Shape Slack's digital content presence — partner with the web PMM on content strategy for ; ensure the site tells a coherent, compelling story at every touchpoint
• Support executive thought leadership — ghostwrite bylines, Linked In content, and long‑form pieces for Slack's senior leadership; capture voice without losing edge
• Set the bar — establish Slack's editorial standards, content quality benchmarks, and voice guidelines for thought leadership; be the internal expert others come to for what great looks like

• 7+ years in content strategy, product marketing, or editorial — with a portfolio that demonstrates both strategic thinking and exceptional writing
• A track record of producing content that did something: shifted perception, drove pipeline, earned press, sparked conversation
• Deep comfort at the intersection of product and market narrative — you can read a positioning doc and turn it into content that doesn't sound like one
• Experience owning content for major product or GTM moments, not just contributing to them
• Strong editorial judgment — you know the difference between content that informs and content that moves people, and you consistently produce the latter
• Fluency in the AI, enterprise software, or future‑of‑work space is a strong plus; genuine curiosity about where work is heading is a must
