• Collaborate with Demand Generation and Offerings teams to develop content that supports customer acquisition and partner engagement.
• Contribute content for strategic capture campaigns, webinars, solution updates, and public sector outreach.
• Develop technology-focused thought leadership content including blogs, POVs, whitepapers, and executive briefs that translate complex IT services capabilities (e.g., cloud modernization, cybersecurity, AI-driven transformation, managed services) into business-aligned narratives for federal and enterprise audiences.
• Partner closely with technical SMEs, solution architects, and offering leaders to shape differentiated services positioning and modernization messaging.

• External & Internal Communications:

• • Draft and manage written communications for both internal updates (e.g., newsletters, CEO notes, townhall summaries) and external audiences (e.g., press releases, website announcements).
  • Act as the central coordination point for content-related comms across teams - ensuring message consistency across platforms and personas.

  • Ensure all external-facing content reinforces DMI's IT services value proposition and competitive differentiation across modernization, digital transformation, and managed services portfolios.
• Social Media Content Support

  • Collaborate with the Social Media Manager and design team to ensure timely delivery of posts tied to enterprise campaigns and internal milestones.
  • Monitor content engagement and audience interaction, contributing insights into what messages resonate.

• Web & Digital Content Management

• Organized, proactive, and comfortable managing multiple projects with competing deadlines.
• Familiarity with IT services marketing frameworks, modernization narratives, and B2B technology positioning across federal and commercial enterprise markets.
• Experience producing technology-focused long-form content such as whitepapers, solution briefs, or executive POV articles is highly desirable.
