Welcome. We're glad you're here. And we're not just saying that. We're glad we're here too. We are proud of this company and take great pleasure in introducing you to the Watson difference.
We are builders. For more than 60 years we have designed and built revolutionary and award-winning workplace solutions for some of the most dynamic and innovative companies. Our designs are functional, simplistic, and manufactured with a high respect for our environment and our people. We are proud to source the best talent and materials at our manufacturing facility in Poulsbo, WA.
We're looking for a Content & Brand Manager who can translate strategy, products, and customer insights into compelling stories that move people to action. This role serves as a steward of the Watson brand and is responsible for helping shape how we communicate with customers, dealers, architects, designers, and the broader market. You'll partner closely with the Director of Marketing, Art Director, Product teams, and business leaders to develop messaging, launch plans, campaigns, and content that support business growth and strengthen our brand.
You are equal parts storyteller, strategist, and editor. You understand how to turn complex information into clear, engaging messaging and know when to leverage AI tools - and when human judgment, creativity, and brand stewardship matter most.
If you enjoy finding the story behind the product and helping others understand why it matters, we'd love to meet you.
