Foundry has been the trusted editorial voice for enterprise IT decision-makers for over 60 years. With a global audience of CIOs, CTOs, and tech leaders, our journalism has helped shape the way technology is evaluated, implemented, and understood across the world.

But the enterprise world is changing fast—and so are we.

We’re on a mission to redefine what B2B content means in the modern era—not just reporting on technology, but leading the conversation through powerful storytelling, smart data, emerging formats, and authentic connection. We believe great editorial doesn\'t just inform—it influences action, builds community, and creates long-term value.

We’re looking for a visionary, digitally native Editorial Director to lead that transformation.

The Opportunity

This is not a maintenance role. It\'s a modernization mandate.

As Editorial Director, you\'ll shape and lead a global editorial operation—building on our rich history while driving innovation in voice, format, platforms, and performance. You\'ll manage a high-performing international team, lead with data and creativity, and be empowered to test, iterate, and build new content experiences across every stage of the enterprise buyer journey.

From integrating AI tools into workflows to growing influential editorial voices, your mission is to turn content into one of our most strategic assets, serving both audience needs and commercial growth.

What You’ll Do

  • Own and evolve the global B2B editorial strategy across digital platforms (online, newsletters, social, community, events, and emerging channels).
  • Develop content themes, tones, and approaches that differentiate Foundry in a crowded market—delivering clear, opinionated, actionable content.
  • Blend traditional journalism values with modern engagement tactics to serve the needs of today’s enterprise IT buyer.

Modernize Operations

  • Leverage data intelligence, AI tools, and engagement modeling to streamline editorial processes and boost performance.
  • Foster a test-and-learn culture across the editorial team, where experimentation is encouraged and informed by real-time insights.
  • Optimize content creation and distribution across geographies, languages, and buyer stages.
  • Grow & Engage the Audience

  • Partner with Audience Development, Product, and Marketing teams to grow reach, engagement, and conversion across all channels.
  • Shape content strategies that support the full funnel—from awareness to decision—using intent data, SEO, and behavioral insights.
  • Innovate with new content types, formats, and delivery mechanisms to meet audiences where they are.
  • Hire, mentor, and develop a diverse and globally distributed editorial team.
  • Nurture individual editorial voices who can build influence, trust, and engagement within their domains.
  • Create a culture of creative freedom, accountability, and journalistic excellence.
  • Collaborate Cross-Functionally

  • Work seamlessly with events, data operations, sales, marketing services, and demand gen to align editorial output with company strategy.
  • Support commercial and client teams with insights, custom content strategy, and editorial expertise.
  • Maintain a healthy balance between editorial integrity and business collaboration.
  • Be a Thought Leader

  • Represent Foundry’s editorial brand publicly—on stage, on panels, and across digital channels.
  • Provide commentary and insight on enterprise technology trends, content strategy, and the evolution of B2B publishing.
  • What You Bring

  • 10+ years in editorial leadership, ideally in B2B tech, media, or adjacent industries.
  • Proven track record of leading high-impact, globally distributed content teams.
  • Fluency in digital publishing, content strategy, analytics, and platform engagement.
  • Familiarity with AI tools in content workflows (e.g., generative AI, tagging, summarization).
  • Strong editorial judgment and a passion for innovation, experimentation, and continuous improvement.
  • A deep understanding of enterprise IT buyers—their needs, their pain points, and their behaviors.
  • Collaborative leadership style, with the ability to work across teams and influence at all levels.
  • Why Join Us?

  • Lead the transformation of a respected global brand into a next-generation content powerhouse.
  • Collaborate with smart, passionate people across editorial, data, product, and marketing.
  • Work at the intersection of journalism, technology, and B2B innovation.
  • Be empowered to build, experiment, and make your mark on the future of enterprise media.
  • Foundry is an equal-opportunity employer. All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, religion, national origin, disability, veteran status, age, marital status, pregnancy, genetic information, or other legally protected status.

This accounts for the wide range of factors that are considered in making compensation decisions; including but not limited to business or organizational needs, skill sets, experience and training, licensure, and certifications.
