Summary Statement

This Megger group content team is responsible for the development and implementation of the companys content strategy. This entails work in four principal areas:

  1. Experience design, which reflects how well Megger understands consumers and how well the companys content (i.e. the information and the overall experience Megger delivers) aligns with the consumers journeys what they want and need when they want and need it.
  2. Editorial design, which reflects the fundamental (consumer) thoughts that Megger wants to influence/cultivate, the impressions Megger plans to make, etc. through its content. While content planning attends to which subjects are being presented, editorial design plans subliminal messaging.
  3. Process design, or content management, that formulates synchronized processes resulting in consistent, high-quality content creation, translation, and maintenance across Megger; content reuse in other formats, content coordination, assessment of content performance, etc.
  4. Structure design, or content engineering, that facilitates quick, intuitive (internal/external consumer) connection to the content that consumers want.

The Senior Technical Writer plays a key role on this team by developing and editing technical content to be used across the world via all available delivery mediums. This role will also be an integral producer of content for Meggers knowledge base.
