Join us as we scale: take on ambitious technological challenges and shape the next generation of enterprise security at a company trusted by thousands of organizations worldwide.

Cato Networks is searching for a Director, Content Strategy with deep knowledge of Cybersecurity and Enterprise Networking who can elevate the quality, consistency, and differentiation of our content while shaping thought leadership, editorial strategy, and narratives that strengthen Cato’s market leadership. Reporting to the VP, Corporate Communications, this leader will partner closely with Communications and Marketing leadership, including the CMO, to translate company-level positioning and business priorities into a clear editorial agenda, helping determine which stories Cato should tell, where we have the credibility to lead, and how our content can stand apart in a crowded market.

The ideal candidate will strengthen how Cato plans and prioritizes content across announcements, campaigns, and thought leadership moments, helping teams determine the right mix of new, refreshed, repurposed, both gated and un-gated content, based on audience value, business priority, channel strategy, performance, and existing assets. They will partner across Corporate Communications, Product Marketing, Demand Generation, Brand, Social, Customer Marketing, Customer Advocacy, and executive stakeholders to guide flagship content, research-led storytelling, executive thought leadership, customer and partner narratives, campaign storytelling, and AI-driven discovery strategy.
