What to Expect

Wonderist Agency is a full-service marketing agency that supports almost 1000 dentists around the country. We pride ourselves on ditching the old fashioned marketing model of stock photos and templated sites. We strive to tell our clients' stories with bespoke brands, impactful photo and video shoots, and stunning website design. We also provide ongoing services such as SEO, PPC, Social Media Marketing, and Funnels to help our practices get butts in seats. (Here is a great example of our work: www.strahlerdentalpartners.com)

We need someone with the flexibility to turn on their heels when priorities change, the thoughtfulness to do what's in the best interest of the team, and the desire to always produce their best work.

We're a team of over 60 passionate marketers nestled in sunny San Diego. We are walking distance from local hangouts, bars, and the famed Liberty Station. While many companies simply check the required boxes when it comes to culture, a well-balanced team and positive office culture has been the core of our success from the start. We are a social team at heart, and have embraced a hybrid work model where team members come in at least two days a week. This allows us to work from home and have flexibility, without altogether forgoing the excitement and moments of collaboration and inspiration you can only get from in-person time. Not to mention, we also genuinely enjoy spending time together and socializing.

We celebrate new ideas and prioritize a culture of trust and respect where team members can grow and take risks. Each quarter we host events under our four cultural pillars; health & wellness, personal & professional development, social good, and social. We are proud to have been named one of San Diego Business Journals Best Places to work in 2018, 2021, 2022 and 2023, made the Inc 5000 Regionals Fastest Growing Companies 2021, 2022, and 2024, made the San Diego Business Journals Fastest Growing Private Companies list in 2019, 2020, 2022, and 2023 and made the Inc. 5000 for the last 4 years!

If you work at Wonderist, you likely enjoy a challenge, appreciate autonomy, actually care about clients, and are looking for a team that you can enjoy being part of.
