Tradeshift is disrupting a stale e-invoicing, procure to pay, and financial solutions market. We are connecting companies of all sizes and providing them with the platform and network needed to create value from old processes like procurement, invoicing,  payments, and workflow. Tradeshift is redefining an enterprise space that has seen little change in many years. We recognize that business is messy and business is social. Understanding these two facts drives the development of Tradeshift - a platform for all your business interactions. 

Your work should always make a difference. But what if it helped 1,000 of your fellow teammates love coming to work every day?

Tradeshift is looking for a seasoned Internal Communications & Content Manager with wit, imagination, project management skills, and a deep understanding of what makes people feel engaged. The Communications & Content Manager will create and distribute the information and stories your coworkers talk about, shaping Tradeshift culture through our brand-new employee app to reach all Tradeshifters.

Tradeshift is redefining the way companies do business together by providing an innovative platform and network to create value from age-old processes like procurement, invoicing, payments, and workflow that have been untouched for years. We understand business is social and that stories matter. That’s why we’re looking for an Internal Communications & Content Manager to help tell the internal stories that support our company narrative around the world, across all of our offices.

You’re perfect for this role if you have a keen ability to write, prioritize and edit internal newsletter-type news stories and create content. You like the challenge of writing on a variety of topics, from birthday cake updates to round E investment summaries, and you can switch between styles in an instant. You feel comfortable as you draft or shape stories about who we are, what we do and what we stand for, and you can turn (somewhat complex) stories and information related to Tradeshift innovations into compelling, short copy that informs and helps educate employees about the strategy and business, culture and their role in delivering results.

You’re experienced with CMSs and you have a strong understanding of the technical and production side of creating content. You have a social media mind—you love putting together and making on-the-fly videos, putting photos into a narrative, you’re app-savvy, and you get how to compel readers with bite-sized content. You’re also an experienced, collaborative project manager who’s the perfect blend of detail-oriented and results-driven. You love to collaborate and excel at working closely with multiple, global teams. You’re excited about helping to create a content strategy for an internal app from the ground up.
