As Microsoft continues to lead innovation in productivity, the Organic Growth team helps millions of customers discover and engage with products through high-quality, SEO-driven content experiences.

We are hiring a Growth Senior Content Program Manager to drive execution across Microsoft's web ecosystem, including Copilot, Word, Excel, PowerPoint and Clipchamp.

This role owns and scales the content execution engine powering organic growth. The Growth Senior Content Program Manager is accountable for how content is delivered across the organization, ensuring programs are executed effectively through strong editorial standards, clear governance and efficient operational processes.

The role operates as a force multiplier, directly contributing to high-impact initiatives while enabling the broader team to deliver through systems, standards, coaching and operational excellence. The majority of the role's impact comes from empowering others to execute successfully and improving how content operations function at scale.

Microsoft’s mission is to empower every person and every organization on the planet to achieve more. As employees, we come together with a growth mindset, innovate to empower others, and collaborate to realize our shared goals. Each day we build on our values of respect, integrity, and accountability to create a culture of inclusion where everyone can thrive at work and beyond.
