Head of Content
ITURA Jewelry. Lagos, Nigeria
About ITURA
ITURA Jewelry is a Lagos-based jewelry brand creating timeless, elegant pieces for modern Nigerians.
We are building more than a jewelry company. We are building a respected, systems-driven brand known for beautiful design, strong customer experience, thoughtful presentation, and operational excellence.
At ITURA, we care deeply about quality, clarity, and the feeling people get when they interact with our brand, whether they are customers, team members, or partners.
As we grow, we are looking for an exceptional Head of Content to lead how the brand shows up across every owned and organic touchpoint, and to build a content function that is elevated, disciplined, and commercially effective.
About the Role
This is a senior leadership role for someone who knows how to shape a brand, lead creative teams, and build a high-performing content organization.
The Head of Content will work closely with the CEO to define how ITURA shows up across every owned and organic channel, improve the quality and consistency of our content, and ensure that the brand is expressed with clarity, taste, discipline, and strategic intent.
This role is ideal for someone who can set direction, manage strong creative and channel leads, improve content systems, and raise standards across social, website, email, SMS, and every other brand touchpoint.
You will not be expected to personally create everything yourself. Your job is to ensure the right people are creating the right content, for the right channels, with the right standards, tone, timing, and commercial purpose.
The CEO will continue to own paid ad creative strategy and campaign messaging, but the Head of Content will be a critical strategic partner in shaping that thinking and ensuring strong alignment across the wider brand ecosystem.
What You’ll Own
You will lead the content strategy, quality, and execution standards across the business by:
Content Strategy Across Channels
- Defining how ITURA shows up across every owned and organic channel, including Instagram, Website, Email, SMS, TikTok, Pinterest, LinkedIn, and future platforms
- Creating clear channel roles, content direction, and content priorities across the customer journey
- Ensuring each channel has a strong purpose, consistent output, and a clear connection to brand and business goals
Brand Stewardship
- Helping lead brand strategy in practice across all content touchpoints
- Protecting and evolving ITURA’s voice, tone, and visual consistency
- Recommending updates or refinements to the brand book, with final approval sitting with the CEO
- Ensuring the brand feels clear, elevated, warm, and consistent everywhere it appears
Website Experience and Content Layer
- Owning the website experience and content layer across the brand
- Improving homepage storytelling, collection pages, product pages, landing pages, campaign pages, and merchandising content
- Working closely with the CEO, especially in the first six months, on website direction, CRO-related copy, storytelling structure, and content decisions
- Helping ensure the website feels both premium and commercially effective
Team Leadership
- Leading the broader content and creative organization
- Managing content leaders, Content Managers, Senior Graphic Designer, Email Marketing Lead, Social Media Managers, videographers, photographers, UGC leads, copywriters, Pinterest and TikTok specialists, website designers, UX researchers, and UX designers
- Supporting team structure, role clarity, output quality, and performance management
- Ensuring the content team operates with strong standards, accountability, and creative judgment
Editorial Oversight and Creative Quality
- Reviewing and improving the quality of content across all owned and organic channels
- Ensuring everything published feels on-brand, strategically sound, visually strong, and commercially useful
- Raising the bar on storytelling, creative direction, channel relevance, and execution quality
- Serving as the final internal content leader before major content goes live
Content Operations
- Building stronger systems for planning, briefing, reviewing, and delivering content
- Improving content calendars, production workflows, approval systems, and team coordination
- Reducing confusion, duplication, weak handoffs, and last-minute execution issues
- Helping the content function become more scalable and less founder-dependent over time
Strategic Partnership with the CEO
- Working closely with the CEO on launches, campaigns, website direction, brand refinement, and major content decisions
- Contributing meaningfully to creative thinking, campaign direction, offer storytelling, and brand expression
- Helping translate founder vision into a content system that a wider team can execute consistently

- We have a clearer and stronger content strategy across every owned and organic channel
- The brand feels more consistent, elevated, and intentional across Instagram, website, email, SMS, and other touchpoints

- Content teams are better managed, more accountable, and producing higher-quality work
- The content calendar is structured, realistic, and well executed
