About the role

  • Own and drive Orbital's content strategy with a clear line of sight to commercial outcomes - pipeline, lead conversion, and revenue acceleration - balancing long-term brand building with short-term GTM needs.
  • Act as a strategic partner to Sales, identifying gaps in the buyer's journey and building the assets that move prospects forward, from awareness content to technical deal-closers.
  • Use data and performance insights to measure effectiveness, iterate quickly, and make the case for where to invest next.
  • Own Orbital's editorial voice, tone, and standards - establishing the processes (briefing, drafting, review, publication) and acting as an editorial partner who enables subject matter experts to contribute without sacrificing quality.
  • Produce thought leadership connecting Orbital's materials innovation to pressing challenges in data centres, energy efficiency, cooling, and sustainability.
  • Lead production of high-impact content across formats: presentations, product specs, technical blog posts, and scientific explainers - using AI tools to work efficiently without sacrificing rigour.
  • Work cross-functionally with Sales, Product, Science, and Leadership to originate ideas and ensure content is accurate, relevant, and aligned to business priorities.
  • Track developments across AI and data centre infrastructure to keep content timely and credible.
  • Build Orbital's presence across key communities - data centre, infrastructure, AI research, chemistry, and engineering.
  • Develop content that strengthens positioning with technically fluent decision-makers globally.
  • Pioneer new ways to activate content and grow Orbital's reach.

Requirements

  • A builder mindset with a genuine passion to create a foundational content function from scratch.
  • Data-driven: you use analytics and performance data to inform decisions, optimise content, and report on impact clearly.
  • Startup or early-stage company experience is a plus - we move fast, priorities shift, and we're looking for someone who finds that exciting rather than uncomfortable.
