Content & Social Media Manager (80-100%) job description

Zurich Instruments is a technology leader in advanced test and measurement instruments and in control electronics for quantum computing. Our products are used in many challenging research fields by scientists all over the world and by leading high-tech companies worldwide. We help advance science and build the next generation of quantum computers.

In this role you'll contribute to the company's positioning and future growth, defining our place and voice in an exciting, rapidly evolving field.

Your responsibilities

  • Act as lead storyteller and editor, own copy and content across all channels and keep the ZI brand voice and product messaging consistent across.
  • Create and edit accurate and creative output across different formats; from newsletters, application notes, and blog posts to video scripts, employer branding content, and digital copy.
  • Own social media strategy and execution on LinkedIn.
  • Collaborate effectively across teams, including with designers, website managers, performance marketers, scientists, and senior stakeholders.

    • Your profile

  • 5-7 years of experience in journalism, science communication, or content roles with editorial ownership, ideally with a journalism background.
  • A track record of making technical or scientific material engaging to a wide range of audiences; from scientists to knowledgeable lay people.
  • Comfort operating independently: pitching your own stories, setting your own priorities, defending your editorial calls.
  • Strong social-native instincts - you know how a story changes shape from long-form to a 30-second clip to a single post.
  • Enough physics literacy (or hunger to learn fast) to hold your own in a conversation with a quantum scientist and to ask the right questions.
  • Native or native-level writing skills in English; comfort working in a scientist- and engineer-heavy culture where precision is paramount.
  • Excellent communication skills with a natural knack for relationship-building.

    • We offer a diverse work environment with an open and transparent company culture where personal development forms the basis of our success. We thrive on cooperation and support distributed decision-making that allows everyone to take responsibility and generate substantial impact from the start and on many levels.

    Now is a great time to join the team.

    We look forward to receiving your resume and motivation letter.
