Full Job Description
Overview

Our Associate Director Content Strategists drive the content architecture of digital products and services that people love to use.

At Digitas, we do CS a little differently. Our UX 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 collaborators who lead multidisciplinary teams to set and drive a vision forward, and they aren't afraid to get their hands dirty making things.

Sound good? Good.

Responsibilities

What you'll do
  • Own the end-to-end UX CS process from ideation to execution across multiple projects
  • Understand strategic business goals-and challenge them when needed
  • 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
  • Weigh in as a subject matter expert on content strategy topics with cross-disciplinary agency and client partners
  • Practice and evangelize customer-centric thinking

Qualifications

A few things we want to see in you
  • Demonstrable understanding of UX content strategy for digital products, content platforms, and branded experiences
  • Clear understanding of how content and design work together
  • Complete comfort ideating, sketching, and riffing with your team
  • The ability to execute, organize, and defend the work
  • A fanatical obsession with the quality of work that gets delivered
  • Enough development, research, and process experience to be dangerous
  • Informed opinions
  • A creative skill I wouldn't have thought to list here


The ideal candidate will have
  • A portfolio of relevant work: It should showcase your experience in the design process, creating XD content, working on enterprise-level content systems, and solving real user problems
  • At least 10 years professional experience, 6 years in content strategy with a focus on UX
  • Demonstrable experience in the future of content: conversation strategy and design, LLM behavior, and conversational AI platforms
  • Experience translating data into strategic recommendations
  • Understanding of user-centric design and product development best practices
  • Exceptional skills writing short- and long-form content
  • Experience with tools like Figma and Screaming Frog a plus
