We are looking for a strategic travel content leader to help shape the future of our travel content experience. This person will lead the editorial strategy for a content-first travel platform designed to guide users from inspiration to booking. With a strong understanding of travel behavior, editorial systems, and high-intent user needs, this individual will work hand-in-hand with product, SEO, commerce, and design teams to develop content and tools that inform, inspire, and ultimately help users book their best travel experience.

**What You’ll Do**

• Own the editorial vision and performance strategy for Yahoo Travel’s Destination Hubs and commerce content

• Partner closely with product and commerce teams to develop content experiences that support real booking behavior

• Build out a content system designed to convert — through trip planning tools, FAQs, travel deals, product recs, and more

• Create a scalable approach to travel deal storytelling, surfacing relevant flight, hotel, and package opportunities at the moment of planning intent

• Lead the editorial integration of content from licensed partners, travel creators, and Yahoo’s in-house team

• Oversee the production of multi-format content: longform explainers, creator Reels, shortform tips, podcasts, narrated itineraries, interactive modules

• Ensure all content formats help users progress through the planning funnel, with clear opportunities to click, save, share, or book

• Collaborate with SEO, design, social, commerce, and video to ensure content is discoverable.

• Build and manage a team of editors, writers, and content producers, aligned around content performance and booking behavior

**What You Bring**

• 10+ years of experience in digital travel editorial, including experience with content that drives bookings, purchases, or affiliate conversion

• Deep knowledge of the full traveler journey, from inspiration and research to decision and booking

• A track record of building content systems that are modular, structured, and performance-driven

• Experience working closely with product teams to shape UX/content tools, CMS workflows, and user flows around commercial goals

• Understanding of how to pair content with deals, incentives, and loyalty logic to drive action

• Familiarity with travel creators and how to surface their insights at scale while maintaining editorial integrity

• Strong grasp of GEO principles (Generative Engine Optimization) and voice-first design — even if we don’t lead with it in messaging

• Comfort analyzing performance data and user behavior to optimize content decisions
