The ideal candidate brings hands-on experience in content creation, a working knowledge of SEO best practices, and the ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously with minimal supervision. This is a structured part-time role with consistent hours, not a freelance or per-project engagement.

  • Ensure all published content adheres to brand guidelines and style standards

Requirements

  • 2 or more years of experience in content marketing, copywriting, or a related role
  • Strong written communication skills with careful attention to grammar and style
  • Proficiency with a content management system such as WordPress
  • Experience using social media scheduling platforms such as Buffer or Hootsuite
  • Familiarity with basic SEO principles including keyword usage and metadata
  • Ability to manage deadlines and deliver work independently
  • Comfort using Google Analytics or similar tools to review content performance
  • Associate's or Bachelor's degree in Marketing, Communications, English, or a related field

Benefits

  • Competitive hourly pay ranging from $28 to $38 based on experience
  • Flexible part-time schedule averaging 20 hours per week
  • Hybrid work arrangement with two to three days on-site per week
  • Paid sick leave in compliance with California state law
  • Access to professional development resources and industry tools
  • Inclusive and collaborative team culture
