Technical Content Writer
Codal
About the role
We're looking for a driven, enterprise-calibre Technical Content Writer to own the voice of Codal across digital and editorial channels. You will be a cornerstone of our content engine shaping how Codal communicates its expertise in complex, regulated industries to sophisticated enterprise buyers.
This is not a role for someone who relies on AI to write. We want a writer who thinks deeply, crafts precisely, and produces content that earns trust with technical and executive audiences alike. You'll work closely with our Global Head of Marketing and internal subject-matter experts to develop a content strategy grounded in genuine expertise and clear market positioning.
What you'll own
Website and digital content
- Write and own key industry pages and solutions pages across the Codal website
- Develop copy that clearly articulates Codal's point of difference in a competitive market
- Work with the Global Head of Marketing to ensure website content reflects our positioning and service lines
Thought leadership and editorial
- Produce authoritative blog articles in collaboration with internal SMEs across engineering, design and strategy
- Write and distribute press releases that reinforce Codal's market position and announcements
- Develop and execute a content strategy alongside the Global Head of Marketing, contributing ideas, flagging what's resonating, and shaping the editorial calendar
Case studies
- Lead end-to-end case study production from stakeholder brief and client interview through to published asset
- Design and implement a scalable case study process to accelerate output and reduce time from project completion to publication
- Work cross-functionally with delivery, sales and design to source stories, gather approvals and get case studies out faster
Brand and positioning
- Communicate Codal's point of difference clearly and consistently across all content formats
- Maintain a consistent enterprise tone of voice across all channels and asset types
- Contribute to how the team plans and prioritises content, not just what gets executed
Data and performance
- Track and report on content performance across key channels: organic traffic, engagement, lead attribution and pipeline influence
- Use data to inform content decisions: identify what's working, what isn't, and where to focus effort
- Set measurable goals for content initiatives and report results in terms of business impact, not just pageviews
- Work with the marketing team to connect content activity to CRM data and pipeline outcomes in HubSpot and Salesforce
What we're looking for
- 10+ years of B2B or enterprise content writing experience, ideally in digital services, technology, agency or consultancy
- Proven background writing for regulated industries: healthcare, financial services, compliance, or similar
- A portfolio that demonstrates range: long-form editorial, web copy, case studies, press releases, thought leadership
- Exceptional command of the English language: grammar, structure and nuance, with a strong editorial instinct
- Experience interviewing SMEs and distilling complex technical ideas into compelling, accessible narratives
- Strong project management instincts: able to manage multiple workstreams without dropping the ball
- Comfortable owning processes, not just executing tasks, you'll build systems as well as write content
- High standards, high output, and the drive to do both at once
What we’re not looking for
We will not consider candidates who rely on AI-generated drafts as a substitute for original writing. We expect every piece of content to reflect genuine craft, strategic thinking and a thorough understanding of the audience. If your process starts with a prompt box, this role is not for you.
How this role will be measured
- Quality and consistency of content across website, editorial and campaign assets
- Volume and velocity of case study output, and improvement in time-to-publish
- Contribution to content strategy and editorial planning
- Engagement and performance of content across key channels
Location and logistics
- Based in Chicago (hybrid, 3 days in office)
- Reporting into the Global Head of Marketing
