We're here to shape it in the best way possible. kaiko is a well-funded company with a growing international team, operating from Amsterdam and Zurich.

About the role

The Content Lead is the: strategist, designer of the engine, and editor-in-chief.

You’ll run kaiko’s content function with the production discipline of a media company. Every moment becomes multi-format content: long-form articles, video, social series, executive narratives, customer stories, research-driven pieces. You’ll lead editorial direction, do the writing and producing yourself, and build the operational rhythm that ships reliably.

We’re looking for a strong writer with producer instincts. Someone who can run a content engine, not just write essays. The right person has strong editorial taste, real production discipline, and is genuinely curious about healthcare and AI.

You will be based in The Netherlands, with the expectation of spending at least 50% of your time at the office.

Some areas of responsibility

• Run kaiko’s content function as editor-in-chief: editorial direction, production discipline, and multi-format output across written, video, infographics, social, and executive content.
• Turn high-touch moments (roundtables, conferences, hospital site visits) into multi-format content: long-form articles, insight reports, video pieces, LinkedIn series, customer stories.
• Build a testimonial and customer use case program from the ground up; support our founder and leadership in shaping their public voices.
• Partner with the customers, production agencies, and designers, to deliver the strategy. Own content KPIs.

About you

• 5 to 8 years in content marketing, editorial, or content production at B2B SaaS companies with complex products and technical, research, or clinical audiences. Reference industries: clinical AI-scale ups, medical and device diagnostics companies, pharma and biotech.
• A strong individual-contributor track record. You’ve written extensively yourself, with editorial judgment that comes from doing the work.
• You understand complex buying journeys and tailor content to distinct audiences, from users and buyers to board members and gatekeepers.
• Real producer experience: turning live moments (events, interviews, customer conversations) into multi-format content with a team of contributors (videographers, photographers, designers).
• Experience building or significantly growing a content function from zero or near-zero at a B2B SaaS company.
• A self-starter who operates with limited direction. You set your own brief, prioritize, and ship without waiting for a perfect spec.
• Working knowledge of Dutch (German is nice to have).

Nice to have:

• Experience supporting executive thought leadership or founder content.

We are excited to gather a broad range of perspectives in our team, as we believe it will help us build better products to support a broader set of people.
