Freelance Content Director - Global Creative Agency

We're looking for a Freelance Content Director to join an established creative team on a short-term contract, supporting a global tech B2B account. If you're a senior content or editorial lead with a journalistic edge, creative instincts, and strategic depth, this role offers a fast-paced and rewarding opportunity to help shape smart, omnichannel work for an informed, social-savvy business audience.

Day-to-Day Responsibilities:

• Lead the creation of editorially driven content across multiple formats - thought leadership, articles, social, digital, and internal comms

• Shape messaging frameworks, creative narratives, content ecosystems, and campaign platforms

• Collaborate with copywriters, art directors, strategists, and project teams to ensure ideas are fully formed, well-executed, and client-ready

• Present and defend creative ideas to stakeholders confidently and clearly

• Lead and contribute hands-on to deliverables - from messaging houses to tone of voice guides

• Provide strong creative and editorial direction in a fast-paced, startup-like environment

• Film treatments may occasionally be part of the brief, but are not a core element of the role

We're Looking for Someone Who:

• Has experience overseeing omnichannel campaigns for global brands - ideally in tech and B2B sectors

• Brings an impressive portfolio of content work that spans editorial, digital, and social, with results to match

• Is strategically minded and can concept, interrogate, and shape content with business outcomes in mind

• Is comfortable briefing across disciplines - from copy and design to strategy - to build cohesive campaign work

• Has a journalistic/editorial background and a passion for storytelling that cuts through

• Likes doing as much as directing - this is a hands-on role

• Is experienced in creating BTL content (e.g. thought leadership, internal pieces, articles)

• Has 5-7+ years in senior editorial or creative roles

• Is highly organised, self-sufficient, and thrives under pressure

Nice to Have:

• Familiarity with brand storytelling in the tech space
