How to Apply for Senior Brand Content Manager

at Radiant

🏢 About Radiant

Radiant is pioneering portable, zero-emissions nuclear microreactors to provide clean, reliable power anywhere—from remote communities to defense applications. This company uniquely combines cutting-edge nuclear technology with a mission-driven approach to solving global energy challenges, offering the chance to shape communications for a potentially transformative clean energy solution.

About This Role

As Senior Brand Content Manager at Radiant, you'll be the architect of the company's narrative across all channels—translating complex nuclear technology into compelling stories for diverse audiences including investors, policymakers, and the public. This role directly impacts how the world perceives next-generation nuclear energy by crafting everything from executive social media to investor materials while maintaining rigorous brand consistency.

💡 A Day in the Life

A typical day might involve drafting social media content that explains microreactor safety features for public audiences, reviewing renderings from external designers for an upcoming investor presentation, and coordinating with technical teams to ensure accuracy in press materials about a new regulatory submission. You'd likely balance long-term content calendar planning with rapid response to emerging industry news or policy developments.

🎯 Who Radiant Is Looking For

  • Has 6+ years specifically in B2B tech or energy sector communications, with proven experience making complex technical concepts accessible to non-technical audiences
  • Demonstrates portfolio examples of successfully adapting voice for different executives and creating content for multiple stakeholder groups simultaneously
  • Shows experience managing visual creative processes for technical products—not just writing but briefing designers on renderings, animations, or technical diagrams
  • Possesses strategic understanding of how to message nuclear technology to skeptical audiences while maintaining scientific accuracy and regulatory compliance

📝 Tips for Applying to Radiant

1

Include 2-3 writing samples that demonstrate technical translation—preferably from energy, defense, or deep tech sectors—showing how you made complex concepts accessible

2

Create a mock social media post or short blog excerpt explaining Radiant's microreactor technology to a general audience as if you were already in the role

3

In your resume, quantify content impact where possible (e.g., 'increased investor engagement by X% through refined messaging frameworks') rather than just listing responsibilities

4

Demonstrate understanding of nuclear energy's unique communications landscape by referencing current industry debates or regulatory considerations in your materials

5

Show how you've maintained brand consistency across multiple touchpoints by describing a specific project where you aligned website, social, and presentation materials

✉️ What to Emphasize in Your Cover Letter

['Explain your approach to translating complex nuclear/energy concepts for different audiences (investors vs. general public vs. defense stakeholders)', 'Describe a specific example where you managed external creative vendors to produce technical visual assets that supported a major announcement', "Demonstrate understanding of Radiant's positioning within the competitive clean energy landscape and how you'd differentiate their messaging", 'Highlight experience with executive thought leadership in regulated or highly technical industries']
