Content Operations Specialist (Contentful)
Quietly
Operations
Vancouver, BC, Canada
USD 48-48 / hour
Posted on Jan 8, 2026
We’re looking for a strategic Content Operations Specialist who thrives at the intersection of creativity and technology. The successful candidate will be responsible for managing and deploying content across a variety of web surfaces.
We’re looking for a detail-oriented, highly-motivated individual to help us develop and deploy web pages, social content, and sales collateral for one of the world’s most trusted brands. In this role, you will coordinate day-to-day content marketing initiatives, and assist with sourcing, editing, and uploading of visual assets such as photography and videos. You will also help manage dashboards, trackers, and calendars to support content and campaign development and content publishing.
This is a hands-on role for someone who loves storytelling as much as they love headless content management systems. You’ll work closely with other teams — marketing, design, product, and engineering — to bring our content to life in an organized, scalable, and effective way.
This is a part-time contract opportunity offering a starting rate of $48/hr for up to 15 hours per week, with the flexibility to work remotely during North American business hours, from our Vancouver headquarters, or a hybrid of both. If this aligns with your values, we’d love to hear from you.
