Content Strategy Lead
Job description
About the role
My Funded Futures is actively shaping the prop trading landscape by supplying traders with essential capital, advanced tools, and a thriving community designed for success. The company blends innovation, transparency, and performance to generate tangible opportunity, helping traders scale their efforts faster and smarter in a competitive environment. If you are passionate about fintech, financial markets, and data-driven growth, you will find a direct alignment with the team's mission and energy. This role is focused on building one of the most recognizable and engaging brands in the prop trading industry by owning the narrative across every customer interaction. You will connect business priorities with the content that our traders genuinely want to consume, creating a more cohesive and engaging brand experience across every channel. This position is not a traditional social media manager or content manager role; it demands a strategic thinker who understands how to build brands that people actively choose to follow.
