Content Platform & Digital Delivery Manager

Virgin Voyages • Plantation, FL

9d • Hybrid

About The Position

Virgin Voyages is redefining the future of travel—bold, effortless, and unmistakably Virgin. The Manager, Content Platform & Digital Delivery is a single role that intentionally combines three distinct functions: Product Owner, Scrum Master, and Content Management Lead. This is not a role where those responsibilities are split across a team—this individual owns all three, end to end, and is accountable for the full lifecycle of the content platform and everything it produces. As Product Owner, you define the vision and roadmap for the content platform—deciding what gets built, in what order, and why. As Scrum Master, you lead the CMS development team through agile delivery, removing blockers and keeping execution tight. As Content Management Lead, you are the ultimate authority on all content-related asks across the organization—whether they are business-driven (editorial, campaign, SEO, personalization) or technically driven (CMS architecture, templates, publishing workflows, integrations)—and you have the platform knowledge to bridge both sides without needing a developer in the room. This role requires an entrepreneurial mindset. You treat the content management ecosystem as a product to be built, evolved, and held accountable to measurable outcomes. You don’t wait to be told what to prioritize—you identify the opportunities, build the case, and drive decisions. Deep Magnolia CMS fluency is essential. Development experience is not required, but you must be able to operate confidently as a business user of the CMS, backfill any non-technical content role when needed, and serve as the go-to authority for every content management question in the organization. This individual is a self-starter who connects content strategy to commercial outcomes and sees every content touchpoint as an opportunity to move a metric. This gig is based at VVHQ - our swanky Virgin Voyages Head Office in Plantation, FL where we follow a hybrid work environment. We can't wait to 'sea' you in person during our Collaboration Days, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays, while you enjoy Mondays and Fridays' as remote days.
