Content Marketer

Compound Content Studio

1d • $75,000 - $95,000

About The Position

Compound is a content and creative services agency that helps founders and companies use content to drive business outcomes, with a focus on executive-led LinkedIn content. The Content Marketer will own the day-to-day execution of Compound’s marketing and build a consistent process from idea generation through publication. The role includes developing ideas, gathering input from the CEO, drafting newsletter and LinkedIn content, and coordinating external partners, including the YouTube agency. The goal is to publish consistently and grow Compound’s audience without relying on the CEO to drive every step.

The Content Marketer will stay close to discussions on LinkedIn and X, identify emerging topics and audience questions, and develop original angles that connect those conversations to Compound’s expertise. The CEO will initially oversee strategy and provide direction and feedback. As the marketer develops a stronger understanding of the audience, positioning, and business, the role will take on increasing ownership of content planning and marketing strategy.

The position is open to candidates with approximately 2–5 years of relevant experience, as well as earlier-career candidates with strong writing samples and the ability to learn quickly. Compound values the quality of a candidate’s work, judgment, and follow-through over a specific number of years of experience. The role is open to candidates located in the US or Canada, offers annual compensation of USD 75,000–95,000, and reports to the CEO.

Requirements

• Approximately 2–5 years of experience in content marketing, writing, communications, or a related role; candidates with 1–2 years of experience and strong work samples are encouraged to apply.
• Excellent writing and editing skills, including the ability to clarify ideas, find interesting angles, and remove unnecessary words.
• Strong content instincts and the ability to explain why a topic matters, what makes an angle interesting, and why someone would stop to read or watch.
• Active interest in conversations on LinkedIn and X, familiarity with relevant voices, and the ability to distinguish useful content opportunities from passing trends.
• Writing samples demonstrating the ability to create engaging content; newsletters and LinkedIn posts are especially relevant.
• Ability to capture another person’s voice and turn rough ideas into a cohesive draft.
• Initiative and follow-through, including bringing ideas, identifying next steps, and moving work forward without needing detailed instructions at every step.
• Strong organization, attention to detail, and clear communication with teammates and external partners.
• Comfort receiving feedback, reviewing performance, and adjusting approach.
• Desire to grow from owning marketing execution into greater strategic responsibility.
