Content Marketing Manager

Marketing & Sales

Content Marketing Managers own the strategy, production pipeline, and distribution of content that drives organic traffic, brand authority, and marketing-qualified leads — not just writing but running the machine behind it. The role is sharply different from content-writer (production) and social-media-content-strategist (platform-first): a Content Marketing Manager sets the SEO and content-cluster architecture, hires and manages a team of writers and freelancers, owns the editorial calendar, partners with demand-gen and product on MQL targets, and is accountable for content's measurable contribution to pipeline. In India this is one of the fastest-growing marketing leadership roles: SaaS companies (Freshworks, Postman, Zoho, Razorpay, BrowserStack, Chargebee) have built content-led growth engines that rival top global SaaS blogs; D2C brands (Mamaearth, Nykaa, Healthify, PharmEasy) use content to own high-intent categories; and fintech platforms (ClearTax, Groww, Zerodha Varsity, Cred) treat content as a primary moat. At Indian SaaS unicorns, a strong Head of Content can directly influence millions of dollars of ARR through organic channels — making this one of the highest-leverage marketing seats in the ecosystem.
