WHAT YOU’LL DO
The editorial strategy director will shape and implement content strategies for key topics that span the business, such as artificial intelligence and climate change, while also collaborating with BCG’s practice areas to develop and implement their content strategies.
The editorial strategy director will partner with practice area and topic leaders to identify and articulate their editorial priorities, develop a pipeline of content that supports their agenda, scan the competitive landscape, and continuously refine the strategy using insights into performance, both quantitative and qualitative. The editorial strategy director will identify the most effective mix of formats and channels—within and beyond BCG’s own platforms—to advance the content strategy.
While closely aligned to the practice areas and topic leaders with which they partner, the editorial strategy director’s organizational home is the BCG Content Studio where they are core members of our global hub of writers, editors, producers, and strategists.
Sophisticated and flexible editorial skills are essential. The editorial strategy director will improve quality in formats ranging from articles and reports to videos and infographics. The editorial strategy director will work closely with stakeholders in the business to ensure content is compelling and differentiated. For high-priority pieces, and on high-priority topics, the editorial strategy director will play an active role in shaping and refining the narrative.
Communication and project management skills are critical. The editorial strategy director will cultivate relationships across the business and act as an adviser, influencer, and problem-solver when it comes to partnering with the practice areas and topic leaders on content strategy and development. The editorial strategy director will take a portfolio-wide view of the firm’s approach to content, identifying opportunities to improve quality and streamline the development process.
The editorial strategy director’s impact will be evident on several fronts. Published content will reflect clear priorities and will be supported by well-defined amplification and channel strategies, resulting in stronger reach and engagement. Processes for developing content will be more efficient, with a faster path from ideation to publication and a higher rate of projects set up for success. Content development, in general, will benefit from greater collaboration across the business, the promotion of best practices, and the strategic use of metrics to drive improvements.
The editorial strategy director will report to the Deputy Editorial Senior Director in BCG’s global Content Studio.
