Head of Narratives

Content Marketing & Editorial

• Define the themes and narratives LangChain is hitting; spearhead the direction on what LangChain should be known for and translate that into a rolling editorial direction
• Keep the editorial calendar always on; ensure there's always something worth reading, watching, or sharing coming from LangChain
• Review content; work closely with an existing content marketer to shape briefs, edit drafts, write when needed, and grow the team over time
• Set and uphold the editorial standard; define LangChain's voice and quality bar

Brand

• Shape brand direction in close partnership with the brand lead to align on where the brand is headed, what it stands for, and how it shows up
• Stay close to major brand moments; bring a point of view on concept and messaging for out-of-home, awareness campaigns, and other brand initiatives
• Ensure brand and narrative feel like one thing; the brand should feel like a natural extension of the editorial point of view

Social & Rich Media

• Partner with the social lead on strategy, themes, and goals to ensure social is amplifying the themes and narratives the broader team is driving
• Shape LangChain's rich media approach; develop a shared point of view on how video, audio, and other formats fit into the content mix
• Track what's working and what's not across content, brand, and social to sharpen direction

• Keep visual identity consistent across every channel

Team Leadership
