Job description

What We Do

At My Content Pal (MCP), we help B2B founders and marketing leaders turn hard‑won experience into posts that drive leads. We partner with seven‑ and eight‑figure founders to build content engines that attract clients, investors and opportunities.

Responsibilities

• Ensure clients renew their contracts every month by delivering outstanding work that meets or exceeds expectations.
• Find original, high‑signal content ideas tailored to each client’s brand, audience and goals (not just recycled trends).
• Produce polished, high‑performing posts that flow naturally, engage readers and position founders as thought leaders in their category.
• Provide clear, creative direction to our design team for carousels, infographics and cheatsheets that enhance readability and retention.
• Maintain a 2‑week content runway across all clients.
• Plan, draft and deliver content ahead of schedule.
• Review post metrics biweekly to identify trends, analyze performance and evolve strategy based on what’s working.
• Treat every account like it’s your own – communicate proactively, take initiative and anticipate needs before they’re asked.
• Take full responsibility for the result – you don’t just “do your part.”

You see gaps and fill them.

You ask better questions, look beyond your to‑do list, and care deeply about the client’s success.

You care about details most people never notice.

Rhythm.
Clarity.
Cadence.

You read great writing for fun, study patterns that perform, and constantly raise your own bar.

Growth & Expectations

We want people who are hungry to grow fast, learn deeply and push their craft further than they thought possible. You’ll get mentorship, structure and exposure to world‑class founders, but the real growth comes from the pace, the pressure and the pursuit of excellence every day. All we ask in return is hunger, curiosity and discipline.

Non‑negotiable Values

1. Own the Outcome: We don’t just complete tasks, we take responsibility for results. That means questioning whether “good enough” really is, chasing deeper insight, and stepping outside our scope when needed. If there’s a gap, we fill it. If something’s broken, we fix it. Owning the outcome means putting results over ego, curiosity over comfort and progress over perfection.
2. Long‑Term Games with Long‑Term People: We hire for potential and invest in it. If you want to grow, compound skills and build something meaningful with the same team, you’ll thrive here. We care deeply about seeing clients win and get genuine fulfillment from helping founders grow. We’re in it for the long haul and expect the same from you.
3. Commercial Creativity: We want ideas that make people stop and take action. The best creative work is not just beautiful, it’s effective. We hire writers who think like strategists – imaginative enough to stand out, sharp enough to move the numbers that matter.

Time & Commitments

• This is a full‑time role (40+ hours per week). We care more about quality of output than clocked hours.
• You’ll work asynchronously most of the time, but should be available for Slack communication and client/team touchpoints between 9 AM–6 PM (your timezone).
• You’re trusted to manage your own schedule, protect deep‑work blocks and deliver ahead of deadlines.

Compensation

Competitive monthly salary based on experience and portfolio quality. (This is a high‑performance role and it’s compensated accordingly.) You’ll know exactly what growth looks like and we’ll help you get there. We reward initiative, not tenure – if you elevate the work and drive positive business outcomes, we’ll elevate you.

Logistics

• This is a remote position – work from anywhere.
• You’ll have the freedom to structure your day however you work best – as long as you consistently deliver on time and meet the standard our clients expect.
• Flexibility is earned through performance.
• If the work is exceptional, you’ll always have our trust.
• Clear communication and strong self‑management are non‑negotiable.
• Collaboration happens in Slack, Notion and Loom.
• We work asynchronously, but we move fast.
• Your setup matters: a reliable internet connection and professional video environment are required for smooth collaboration.

Application deadline : Nov 19th.
