About Compose.ly

We are an industry-leading SEO and content marketing agency that delivers measurable results through SEO insights and the creation of blog content, white papers, case studies, landing pages, and more.

Founded in 2017, Compose.ly was born from a team of entrepreneurs and content marketing experts with a proven track record of building successful brands. Compose.ly is a rare thing – a growing, profitable startup that has yet to take any outside investors. We’ve built this business through grit, hard work, and smart decision-making. We’re organized, experienced, and in growth mode, and we are looking for fellow entrepreneurs to join our team.

Job Overview

Compose.ly is seeking an entrepreneurial-minded Junior Account Manager to launch their career with our team.

Our Account Management team serves as the front line and main point of contact for our portfolio of clients, ranging from small startups to notable enterprise logos. We help our clients execute their SEO and content marketing strategies through a consultative and value-added approach. Our clients’ success is our success.

The ideal candidate must have a passion to pursue consultative-based client relationship management. You want to gain an understanding of your clients’ goals and advise them about achieving those goals, identify and ease potential pain points before they become problematic, and identify opportunities to grow accounts with value-added services. Your primary focus will be ensuring your clients’ success.

You’ll be responsible for building and nurturing each relationship through strategy-setting, solid execution, and excellent customer service. Your responsibilities will include onboarding new clients, consulting and guiding our clients on their content and SEO strategies, managing and successfully delivering ongoing client projects, monitoring results and adjusting as needed, completing monthly client check-ins, and driving continuous process improvement. We’ll train you on the ins and outs of content marketing and SEO, but prior experience is a huge bonus.

This is a great opportunity to become a critical member of a growing department and will give you the chance not only to learn new skills but also to contribute your ideas and be heard by your peers and managers. We are looking for a passionate, engaged, and capable team member who is driven to manage and nurture relationships. You’ll be working alongside a fierce, global team as our new Account Manager.
