📍 Berlin, Germany · Office-first setup

Team description

SumUp's Run My Business team builds the tools that help everyday business owners manage payments, finance, and customer relationships, all from one app used by millions of merchants worldwide. As Content Manager, you'll become the central reference point for product messaging, helping teams across Lifecycle, Sales, and Online Marketing turn product benefits into clear, compelling content for every channel. It's a role with real ownership: you'll set the standards for product storytelling, work closely with Design and Localisation, and help shape how SumUp's story reaches customers as the product line keeps growing.

What you'll do

• Create and maintain product narratives, messaging frameworks, content guidelines, and product documentation that establish a single source of truth for how we talk about our products. Educate internal teams and provide a consistent foundation for content across channels, including retail, website, sales materials, and product communications.
• Audit customer-facing copy across the website and product communications, maintaining and QAing existing content while partnering with the Content Guild to improve quality, accuracy, and consistency.
• Contribute to product storytelling through merchant interviews, visits, and other firsthand research, translating customer insights into clear and compelling product narratives.
• Own and maintain product webpage content, track performance, and identify optimisation opportunities based on competitor analysis and merchant insights.
• Partner with Design on sales and marketing materials, ensuring messaging and visuals work together to communicate product value clearly and consistently across relevant touchpoints.

What we’re looking for 

• Fluency in English, with strong verbal and written communication skills that turn product benefits into clear, convincing narratives.
• Track record of building and maintaining content guidelines, messaging frameworks, or documentation that act as a trusted source of truth for other teams.
• Experience turning competitive and consumer research into clear, well reasoned content decisions.
• Comfort briefing and working closely with design teams, co owning the point where messaging and visuals meet.
• Ability to translate complex product and brand information into practical, actionable guidance for non content teams such as sales and growth.
