About The Position

Great Gray is looking to add a Senior Content Manager to our Marketing team. In this role, you will own the production and management of content for the Great Gray Trust Company (GGTC) brand - our institutional CIT trustee platform. You will build and execute against defined content pillars spanning CIT education, TDF thought leadership, and emerging retirement strategies.

Requirements

• Bachelor's degree in communications, marketing, journalism, or a related field

• Experience with sales enablement content and an understanding of how content supports pipeline and buyer journeys
• Fluency with AI-assisted content production tools, with a clear understanding of where AI helps (research, first drafts, repurposing, SEO) and where human judgment is non-negotiable (market thesis, SME expertise, compliance accuracy, brand voice, and final editorial sign-off). We operate a “humans author, AI assists†model
• Ability to thrive in a fast-paced, dynamic environment and manage multiple priorities effectively.
• Comfortable navigating ambiguity.
• Entrepreneurial mindset to bring best practice ideas to the team.
• Your standards reflect our core values: Growth Mindset, Disciplined Curiosity, Grit, Results Ownership, Collaboration.

Nice To Haves

• Partner closely with senior leaders in compliance and legal to conduct thorough reviews of content for adherence to applicable laws, regulations, and industry best practices, ensuring all published materials meet regulatory standards
• Write and edit high-quality content aligned to Great Gray’s content pillars, ICPs across advisors, institutional buyers, asset managers, and recordkeepers, and brand voice standards (authoritative, institutional, precise).

• Track content performance using established measurement frameworks (attention, engagement, commercial impact) and contribute insights to weekly and monthly performance reviews
• Manage the quarterly editorial calendar for Great Gray Trust Company, maintaining the planned monthly rhythm: one thought leadership article or whitepaper, one distributor brief or case study, one earned media or event feature, one executive blog post, and one newsletter issue
• Collaborate with design and digital teams to bring content to life across owned, earned, sales-led and earned channels.
