WordPress Developer & SEO Specialist

We are seeking a WordPress Developer/Tech Support/SEO Specialist to work on 20+ websites and other projects as needed. We expect you to bring an eye for design along with practical web development abilities and strong problem resolution skills, growth hacking to help us build marketing tools and apps for our team and our audience, as well as identify creative new solutions to conversion growth. This role combines technical knowledge of WordPress development with in-depth knowledge of marketing best practices and testing.

The position requires attention to detail, project management skills, and talent for process reverse engineering (in case you are given a task that you have to independently figure out how to complete without an SOP - standard operational procedure). You may also be asked to fulfill a variety of Virtual Assistant tasks related to e-commerce websites.

The ideal candidate will display a dual-minded approach: being process-driven and analytical, think scale, and rely on data to make decisions and develop optimization strategies, as well as having a creative side.

Your level of curiosity in life and drive to grow should exceed your fear of the unknown. We are a trailblazing company led by a highly intuitively aligned female CEO with an innovative framework that is breaking into the mainstream marketing industry. So you need to have a forward-thinking mindset and interest in innovation and understand that innovation comes with a set of challenges when making the unknown known. If the terms "psychic, astrology, numerology, controversy" and the like scare you more than excite you, the job is probably not for you.

If you're up for the exciting challenge of bringing innovation to the marketing industry with us, apply for the job!
