Job Description
DemandJump is looking for a passionate creative writer with a mind for storytelling and for SEO to join our team as a Content Writer. This is a full-time, salaried position with medical benefits.
For this position, we need someone who is in touch with both sides of their brain. The work of a Content Writer is equal parts right-brained creativity and left-brained organization. When a Content Writer is imagining the perspectives of target readership, when they’re considering how to artfully educate and inspire through blog posts and case studies and ad copy, their right side runs free. When they switch gears and consider how all of that creative energy might help our clients reach their goals, when they’re segmenting audiences for content promotion or sifting through data to learn what works best, that left side takes over. The magic happens when those two parts come together to form one whole, and our talented Content Writers help clients put the written word to work to inspire their target audiences to think and feel and value exactly what those clients intend.
If you’re a skilled writer but you aren’t willing to learn something new and technical, please don’t apply. On the same token, we’re not looking for someone with lots of marketing savvy but minimal skill in writing. Above all else, we’re looking for a new member of a small but growing team, someone who is ready to put in the hard work and grow their own abilities while helping to grow a company that’s dedicated to providing creative writers with new opportunities in a work environment that respects initiative and demands responsibility.
Can you write? Can you learn? Do you have experience in digital marketing or the SaaS industry? Are you looking for a career with a company where you can grow for years to come? Can you give your best, see projects through? And when the work is done, can you hang? If the answer to all of these questions is yes, you might be the one we’re looking for.

- As with the rest of the white-collar world, DemandJump has moved to a 100% remote model.
