We are a startup digital agency operating in the USA. We are looking for a long-term talented Social Media Content Writer to administer our social media accounts (LinkedIn). You will be responsible for conducting thorough research on industry-related topics, managing posts, responding to followers, and tracking user engagement. You will manage our company image in a cohesive way to achieve our marketing goals and promote our services on LinkedIn.

Our ideal candidate is an experienced VA with demonstrable creative B2B writing skills with whom we can build a long-term relationship. You should have excellent communication skills and be able to express our company’s views creatively. Feel free to share samples of your work or portfolio of your published articles, along with your application.

++ Work Schedule:
This is a full-time position. The position will start at 5-10 hours per week and gradually increase to 40 hours per week over a
30 day period as we train you. We will work initially from Monday to Friday. After training, we may work on shifts including weekends. All possibilities for raises are based on work performance.
You’ll be working with the CEO. As our business grows, you will have the opportunity to manage your own team of content
writers.

What is important is that you are a skilled copywriter who can generate leads through creative content & copy.

++Qualities needed to be successful:
Skills are something that can be learned and perfected over time. As corny as it sounds, there are 3 qualities that we are
looking for:

1. Integrity = Open communication and honesty are paramount to the team. If you aren’t able to hit a deadline or have made a mistake, be upfront about it, there is nothing scary or wrong about that, we are all humans after all.

2. Commitment = We are looking for someone who is looking for a long-term relationship with the expectation that this will become full-time. If you're just looking for a few months of work, this is not for you.

3. Desire to Learn = We are a small team, but growing fast. We want people who are open to learning new skills and taking on new projects. If you're not excited about improving your skills and trying other writing outside of social media; this is not for you.

If this sounds like you, please apply below and I will personally read your application, work samples and answer any questions you may have (seriously, the more questions the better!).
