Knak is a mission-driven company
Why? Because our time is limited, our competition is fierce, and our margin for error is small. For us to have the greatest impact on the world, we need to be laser focused on our core mission, which is...
Empowering people to be creative.
That’s why Knak exists.
We are a world-class enterprise email and landing page creation platform with a focus on making successful and happy customers by providing them with an incredibly powerful, yet easy to use creation platform.
Our industry leading SaaS solution is built by Marketers, for Marketers. We know that it’s the small things that make the biggest impact and that emails and landing pages are where the rubber hits the road when it comes to Marketing Automation. We change the way Marketers work by making them more efficient, while improving conversion rate of their campaigns and helping them stay on brand.
Oh, and we have a bit of fun while doing it, too!
We’re not looking for a content manager. We’re looking for a modern storyteller, creative producer, and internal showrunner to shape and scale Knak’s brand voice. You’ll be the one turning big ideas into bold campaigns - from video-led stories to sharp POVs on LinkedIn - and making sure Knak stands out in a crowded market.
We’re a small and mighty team, which means you’ll wear a few hats: part creator, part strategist, part orchestrator. You’ll work side-by-side with our Lifecycle Email SME, Digital Marketing Manager, and our exec team to make sure what we’re building gets the spotlight it deserves - and that our insights get turned into content that earns attention, trust, and action.
This isn’t about cranking out gated assets for MQLs. It’s about building a brand that earns trust, attention, and community - the real drivers of modern growth.
