You will be Keycafe's go-to storyteller. Our product solves a real, everyday problem for dealerships, hotels, property managers, fleets and facilities teams, and our customers have great results to share. Your job is to turn that into a steady stream of clear, credible communications that build our brand, support sales and keep our customers informed.

This is a hands-on role for someone who loves to write, can juggle many projects and is comfortable working closely with sales, customer success, product and leadership. We are a small organization that operates globally and you will be asked to think creatively and take on other projects as needed such as running a podcast.  We are also launching several new products that will require building a new set of communications tasks to industries new to the organization.

  • Identify and submit to industry awards and speaking opportunities

Social media and community

  • Manage Keycafe's company LinkedIn and other social channels: plan, write, publish and engage
  • Support employee advocacy so the team shares Keycafe content
  • Monitor conversations about Keycafe, competitors and our industries
  • Develop a Keycafe podcast and interview customers and industry specialists about their own industries for general awareness not just about key management. 

Customer, partner and internal communications

  • Write product update announcements, release notes summaries and customer newsletters with product and customer success
  • Produce co-marketing content with partners and integration partners
  • Support internal communications such as all-hands updates and company announcements

Events, measurement and operations

  • Support trade shows and industry events with booth messaging, collateral and pre- and post-event communications
  • Report monthly on communications KPIs (share of voice, coverage, engagement, traffic, content-influenced pipeline)
  • Manage freelancers or agencies as needed and keep the asset library organized

Requirements
  • Bachelor's degree in communications, public relations, journalism, marketing or a related field
  • 3 to 5 years of experience in communications, PR or content marketing, with at least 2 years in B2B SaaS, technology or a related B2B environment
  • Excellent writing and editing skills in English, with a portfolio showing range: long-form content, press releases, case studies, web copy and social posts
  • Proven ability to explain technical products in plain, persuasive language for business buyers
  • Experience with media relations: writing releases, pitching journalists and securing coverage
  • Experience running a company LinkedIn presence and creating content for social channels
  • Strong project management: you can run several projects at once and hit deadlines
  • Comfortable working closely with sales, customer success, product and leadership, and interviewing customers
  • Comfortable using AI writing and research tools responsibly to work faster while keeping quality high
