Description
As the Marcom/PR Manager for SmartTurn in Oakland, California, you’ll have one significant advantage over your Marcom brethren at other companies: a compelling story to tell. In a world of “me too” enterprise software offerings, our revolutionary, on-demand, online warehouse management system is a quantum leap forward from traditional batch-mode WMS systems. Now, as a forward thinking communications specialist. you’ll be in position to put the right spin on our outbound communications to editors, analysts, prospects and customers. If you’re a hands-on writer who’s been bursting at the seams to unleash your creativity, you’ll have a great story to tell about next-generation technology that can totally disrupt the WMS space. This is a full time position with a solid base salary and benefits as well as the autonomy to follow your muse.

SmartTurn is spin-off from Navis, a 20 year old leading enterprise logistics software company. SmartTurn is backed by two of the premier venture capital firms in the world: New Enterprise Associates (NEA), and Emergence Capital. SmartTurn has an established product (in production since Jan 07), established customers (including references, case studies and PR) and a strong flow of inbound leads (averaging over 400 per month). We continue to grow each month, and are the right place for bright, creative, energetic people who want an opportunity to get in on the ground floor of a great opportunity.

As our Oakland, California-based Marcom/PR Manager, you’ll effectively be the “king of content” here at SmartTurn. Your marcom experience with another software company or with a PR agency serving software company clients will provide a solid technical foundation for this role. Understanding the terminology and players in the warehousing, supply chain, logistics or inventory control space would be especially advantageous and allow you to hit the ground running. We’ll look to you for expertise in writing news releases to the trade and business press; to craft compelling case histories; to generate quarterly newsletters; to update website content and to exploit online opportunities for publicity via blogs and podcasts. Your work will significantly enhance awareness of SmartTurn and its product suite and help us build a larger footprint with the most advanced product in the market.
