Head of Content Operation, VP I - State Street Investment Management
State Street
State Street Investment Management is seeking a Head of Content Operations (VP) to help ensure our content is delivered efficiently, accurately, and in line with regulatory, brand, and editorial standards. In this role, you’ll focus on the operational backbone of content—how it is planned, created, reviewed, approved, published, maintained, and governed across digital and client-facing channels.
You’ll partner closely with content, design, marketing, compliance, digital, and analytics teams to enable scalable, well-governed content delivery in a highly regulated yet agile environment. This is a hands-on, execution-oriented role centered on content governance, workflow design, taxonomy, operational agility, content UX enablement, and platform alignment—not content strategy or creative direction.
This is an ideal role for someone who enjoys bringing structure, clarity, and momentum to complex workflows, and who takes pride in making content systems and processes work better for everyone involved.
Responsibilities
Content Governance
Maintain and apply content governance standards, including workflows, approval requirements, and documentation
Embed compliance and risk controls into content workflows, templates, and systems to reduce rework and risk
Partner with Legal and Compliance teams to improve review efficiency while maintaining required controls
Content Workflow and Lifecycle Management
Own content workflows from intake and prioritization through creation, review, approval, publishing, updates, and archiving
Standardize processes across content types and channels to improve consistency, speed, and transparency
Track content demand, timelines, dependencies and capacity across teams and regions
Identify bottlenecks and implement practical process improvements
Content Production and Delivery Support
Support high-volume content delivery across web, insights, campaigns, and client communications
Manage editorial calendars and production schedules in partnership with content and marketing teams
Ensure always-on content remains accurate, compliant, and up to date
Coordinate with external agencies or vendors as needed
Content Platforms and Taxonomy
Partner with platform owners and marketing teams to ensure workflows, templates, DAM, and publishing practices support scalable, compliant, optimal content delivery
Act as the content operations point of contact for Digital Asset Management (DAM) standards, metadata expectations, and lifecycle practices
Collaborate with cross-functional teams to improve and align workflows across AEM, Workfront, and Smartsheet, supporting intake, tracking, review, and delivery processes
Provide content-specific requirements and feedback to inform system enhancements, workflow tooling, and usability improvements
Support the design and consistent application of taxonomy, metadata, naming conventions, and publishing standards to improve content findability, reuse, and governance
Measurement and Continuous Improvement
Use data and feedback to inform workflow, tooling, and process improvements
Stay current on content operations best practices and emerging capabilities, including automation and AI-enabled workflow support
What We’re Looking For
7–10 years of experience in content operations, marketing operations, or digital content management
Experience working in regulated environments, ideally financial services or asset management
Hands-on experience with enterprise CMS and DAM platforms (e.g., Adobe Experience Manager)
Strong understanding of content governance, review processes, and compliance considerations
Experience supporting workflow modernization or content operations improvement initiatives, especially through the use of automation and/or AI
Knowledge of taxonomy, metadata, and content lifecycle management
Familiarity with tools such as Workfront and Smartsheet for project intake, tracking, and workflow management
Exposure to automation or AI-enabled content workflows
Strong organizational skills and ability to manage multiple workstreams in a matrixed environment
Familiarity with content UX best practices
