Director of Content Marketing

Syllo • New York, NY

17h • $190,000 - $195,000 • Remote

About The Position

Syllo is defining the Litigation AI category with its unified platform designed to autonomously manage the entire litigation lifecycle. Founded in 2019, Syllo enables legal teams to securely harness AI across any matter. The company supports Fortune 500 companies and AmLaw 200 firms and has been recognized with industry awards. Syllo is experiencing rapid growth, having doubled its team in the last six months.

This role owns Syllo's content marketing function, responsible for editorial strategy, content production, distribution, and measurement to build credibility with attorneys, legal operations professionals, and litigation technology buyers. The Director will develop the editorial calendar, manage the content team, and produce various forms of content to drive organic pipeline and category authority. Content at Syllo is a primary channel, not just a support function for demand generation. The ideal candidate will have a high editorial standard, experience developing writers, and the ability to produce content that resonates with senior legal professionals. Prior experience in writing for or marketing to legal audiences is a significant advantage.

Requirements

• Editorial standard: You write and edit at a level appropriate for a senior legal audience. Content from your team does not read like vendor marketing — it reads like expertise.
• Legal or professional services content experience: You have produced content for attorneys, compliance professionals, or financial services buyers — audiences that require precision and will notice when it is missing.
• Long-form content production: You have owned the white paper, research report, and practitioner guide format — from brief through publication. You know what makes them worth reading.
• SEO and distribution fluency: You understand how to build a content program that generates organic pipeline, not just brand impressions. You have done it before.
• Team development: You develop writers, hold an editorial standard without rewriting everything yourself, and build a team that improves over time.
• Content operations: You run an editorial calendar, manage contributors, maintain a consistent publishing cadence, and track performance without losing the plot.
• Cross-functional partnership: You translate the needs of Sales, Product, and CS into content that serves both internal stakeholders and external audiences.
• 6+ years in content marketing or editorial roles, with at least 2 years managing a content team at a B2B SaaS company.
• Demonstrated track record of building content programs that drive organic pipeline and category authority.
• Published writing samples in a legal, technology, or professional services context required.
• Experience with SEO strategy, content distribution platforms, and marketing analytics tools.

Nice To Haves

• Legal industry knowledge or prior experience at a legal technology company is a strong advantage.
• Bachelor's degree in journalism, communications, English, or a related field preferred.

Responsibilities

• Own the content strategy: Develop and maintain the editorial calendar, content pillars, and distribution strategy that position Syllo as the authoritative voice in Litigation AI.
• Build and manage the content team: Hire, develop, and manage content writers, editors, and subject matter contributors. Hold a high editorial standard on every output.
• Produce flagship content: Own the long-form content program — white papers, research reports, case studies, and practitioner guides — that earns Syllo credibility with senior legal audiences.
• Develop the thought leadership program: Support Syllo executives and subject matter experts in developing published content, conference presentations, and media placements.
• Drive organic pipeline: Build the SEO and content-led growth strategy that generates inbound pipeline from attorneys and legal operations professionals actively researching the category.
• Measure content performance: Define and track the metrics that connect content to pipeline — organic traffic, lead quality, content-attributed opportunities, and customer engagement.
• Partner across the team: Align content production with demand generation campaigns, sales enablement needs, product launches, and customer success programs.

Benefits

• Competitive base salary + equity options.
• Medical, dental, vision, and voluntary insurance options.
• Vacation, sick leave, and paid holidays.
• Access to benefit counselors and fitness class reimbursements.
• Annual learning and development budget and real career growth in a fast-scaling organization.
