Your primary focus will be ensuring your clients’ success.

You’ll be responsible for building and nurturing each relationship through strategy setting, solid execution, and excellent customer service. Your responsibilities will include onboarding new clients, consulting and guiding our clients on their content and SEO strategies, managing and successfully delivering ongoing client projects, collaborating with our delivery teams, monitoring results and adjusting as needed, completing monthly client check-ins, and driving continuous process improvement.

This is a great opportunity to become a critical member of a growing department and will give you the chance not only to learn new skills but also to contribute your ideas and be heard by your peers and managers.
