LEAD CONTENT STRATEGIST

Boston, Massachusetts

Company Description

Our Lead Content Strategists help shape the content architecture of digital products and services that people love to use.

At Digitas, we do CS a little differently. Our Content Strategists are an integral part of our Design team. Their backgrounds run the gamut from UX to publishing, startup to agency. They empathize and solve users’ problems, they are well-versed in modern digital experiences, and they are driven by delivering—and supporting—the best possible solution. They are team players who collaborate on a vision and drive it forward, and they aren’t afraid to get their hands dirty making things.

Job Description

  • Work with your team to solve complex problems and find the clearest, most compelling way to communicate the solution
  • Craft deliverables including the strategic vision, site maps, content authoring guidelines, taxonomies, and maybe things no one has a name for yet
  • Collaborate deeply with design, strategy, technology, account management and other disciplines
  • Practice and evangelize customer-centric thinking
