Newbie MDM user here. Signed up for Jamf Now and have 6 iPhone 14's being managed for work. The iPhones are not signed into an iCloud account. What is the best/easiest way to push a managed list of contacts to the phones?

If I am not mistaken you want to setup a CardDAV server and send the configuration down with a configuration profile. Though this is getting more in to the JAMF Pro territory, especially if you want to do it easily as I dont think JAMF Now has a blueprint for this. You can try to upload a custom configuration profile, the template for a CardDAV would look something like this.
