About the role

Key responsibilities & impact

Define and evolve Calendly’s Customer Education strategy, setting a clear vision for how educational content — video demos, self-serve tutorials, Help Center articles, Learning Hub courses, and live programming — maps to customer segments, product surfaces, and lifecycle stages from onboarding through deep feature adoption.
Lead and develop your team of education specialists and multimedia content producers, setting clear goals, providing coaching, and building an environment where each person can do their best work. Hold the team accountable to outcomes while advocating for the resources needed to execute.
Partner closely with Product Marketing to ensure education content is embedded in every product launch — developing Help Center articles, demo videos, feature walkthroughs, and in-product guidance that help customers understand and adopt new capabilities quickly.
Partner with Customer Success and Support to identify where customers are getting stuck, surface education content gaps that are contributing to support volume or churn risk, and build content that proactively answers the questions customers have before they need to ask.
Build and scale the Calendly Learning Hub as a best-in-class self-serve education destination — developing a curriculum strategy, overseeing course development, and creating a content roadmap that keeps pace with Calendly’s product evolution.
Raise the bar on multimedia content quality across the education function, partnering with your multimedia producer and the broader creative team to develop demo videos, feature tutorials, and educational experiences that are compelling, on-brand, and built for how customers actually learn.
Establish KPIs and a reporting cadence to measure the impact of education content — tracking metrics like feature activation rates, Help Center deflection, Learning Hub engagement, and time-to-value for new users. Use data and insights to continuously improve strategy and communicate program effectiveness to senior leadership.
Build the operational systems and workflows that allow your team to produce high-quality content at the speed of Calendly’s product cadence, including processes for content planning, review, localization, and maintenance.

Proven ability to partner cross-functionally with Product, Product Marketing, and Customer Success to align education content with product launches and customer lifecycle milestones.
Strong track record of leading and developing direct reports, with experience building high-performing, accountable teams.
Excellent editorial judgment across written and multimedia formats, with a high bar for content quality, clarity, and brand consistency.
