ROLE SUMMARY
Marchay is looking for a modern content strategist with a strong growth mindset to help drive our next stage of growth.
We’re looking for an entrepreneurial, AI-native marketer who knows how to turn exceptional travel expertise into content that drives discovery, engagement, and new member acquisition.
Your primary focus will be top-of-funnel growth: finding new ways to reach the right prospective members and building a modern, scalable content engine to support that growth.
You’ll use AI and modern marketing tools to move quickly across SEO, social, video, content creation and distribution, landing pages, analytics, and experimentation. You should be someone who likes to build, test, learn, and improve—not simply manage agencies or write briefs.
At the same time, luxury sensibility is essential. You understand exclusivity, discretion, exceptional service, and the expectations of a sophisticated, affluent audience. Growth at Marchay must always feel consistent with the brand.
Please note that this is a remote role.
CORE RESPONSIBILITIES
- Develop and execute a content-led strategy to drive awareness and qualified member acquisition.
- Use AI extensively to research, create, optimize, repurpose, and distribute content across SEO, social, video, and emerging channels.
- Build and implement modern marketing tools, automations, dashboards, and workflows that allow a small team to accomplish more.
- Develop Marchay’s SEO and digital discovery strategy, including emerging AI-driven search.
- Rapidly test new content, channels, landing pages, partnerships, and acquisition ideas—and use data to determine what to scale.
- Turn Marchay’s proprietary travel knowledge into compelling, scalable content.
- Help build toward more personalized, AI-driven content experiences for prospects and members.
- Maintain a sophisticated and consistent Marchay voice and brand across everything we produce.
