Content Strategist
Smooth Media is an agency built for knowledge creators — the people teaching, explaining, and bringing clarity to the world through smart, insightful content. We help them build sustainable, long-term businesses — and we help brands tap into this world in a way that’s strategic, thoughtful, and impactful.
We’re looking for a Content Strategist to work closely with some of the smartest creators in the business/tech/knowledge space. You’ll help shape their content direction, support their growth, and be a trusted partner as they navigate new opportunities. You’re the person they’ll call when they want to refine an idea, evaluate a new project, or think bigger about where their content can go.
You’ll also play a key role in bringing new creators into the Smooth ecosystem and helping them set the foundation for their long-term success.
This is a high-impact, external-facing role for someone who understands storytelling, content, and audience — but also loves the operational side of helping a creator’s business run smoothly. You think strategically, move quickly, and genuinely enjoy supporting creative people.
What you'll do:
Guide creator strategy — help creators refine their positioning, content direction, and growth roadmap
Build strong creator relationships — act as a strategic partner who supports them across creative, operational, and business moments
Collaborate cross-functionally — work closely with Brand Partnerships to execute brand campaigns with the creators you support
Help onboard new creators — identify talent that aligns with Smooth’s thesis and help set them up for success
Spot growth opportunities — new formats, new channels, events, partnerships — you’ll help creators think bigger and smarter
Represent Smooth externally — communicate with creators and partners clearly and professionally
What we're looking for:
4+ years of experience in content, partnerships, editorial, media, or creator-facing work
You get people. You’re a natural relationship-builder who thrives on trust, communication, and helping others succeed
You’re organized and proactive. You can juggle multiple projects without losing the thread
You care about quality. Whether it’s refining a content idea or writing a clean email, you take pride in doing things well
You understand media/creators. You follow content trends, platforms, and know what makes audiences stick
Based in NYC or open to being in NYC (our team is in-office Mon–Thurs)
What we can offer:
Competitive compensation (base + commission)
Health, dental, and vision insurance
Unlimited PTO (mandatory 10 days per year minimum)
