Content Marketing Manager

Relay is building banking that creates total cash flow clarity and control for small businesses. We’re looking for a **Content Marketing Manager** to help us scale our thought leadership function and forge meaningful, lasting connections with our customers. We’re after the 33-million ‘Heart of America’ SMB market—the small businesses that underpin the economy. The boutique creative agency, the family-owned plumbing business, the online store selling handmade jewelry, the accounting firm next door. Collectively, these businesses employ over half of the US workforce. But despite their impact on all of us, they regularly struggle with cash flow (68% will experience a cash flow crisis in their lifetime) and continue to be drastically underserved by traditional banking. Relay is changing that. We’re doing it through a banking platform that gives them cash flow control, partnerships with small business advisors and communities like Profit First, and content that shows small businesses a better way to get on the money. That’s where you come in. Content has been an integral part of our growth at Relay, and will play a major role as we grow our thought leadership function. Reporting to the Content Marketing Lead, the **Content Marketing Manager** will join a team of quality-obsessed marketers and creatives.
