About the role
The role involves understanding and executing our weekly marketing strategy, while managing time in order to meet deadlines.
Self-discipline and a strong work ethic are a must to be successful in this role.
You’ll be using our scheduling software for posting on social media, and other software to help you perform your job at a high level.
The combination of repetitive and occasional tasks, both familiar and challenging will keep your days fresh.
You’ll report to our Creative Director, who will assign you a number of weekly tasks, which you will complete before the deadlines.

Tasks

You’ll need to be able to perform a wide array of tasks; although, in the future, we may agree on a specific area you can take care of.

Writing SEO-friendly blog posts
Liaise with influencers, copywriters, video editors, communication agencies
Preparing videos
Sending regular newsletters
Creating Funnels
Researching keywords for the blog and social media

Setting up and managing sponsorship and other collaborations
Organising events
Writing press releases
Promoting our products and services effectively
Preparing new products launches
Preparing launches for books and courses (later on)
Ad-hoc requests

Please note that we do not expect you to know everything off the bat, but we do require you to learn quickly and execute every task at a high level.
We’ll help you achieve this by providing you with comprehensive training and ongoing support.
For us, it’s more important your attitude and work ethic than your knowledge at the time of your application.

This is NOT for you if:

You are looking for any job
You do not believe in our values
You are looking for a temporary job, including gap years
You have other projects in mind
You are not a hard worker
You do not like to take responsibility for your duties
You are not capable of working independently

At the end of the day, we all have to pay the bills – we get it!
But, there are other jobs out there that can suit you better, in that case.
We are looking for people that are not thinking only about the money.
We have a mission and a purpose, and want to bring in committed individuals that will feel proud to embody our values, and are motivated to help us with our long-term growth plan.

Last but not least, you won’t be asked where you get your protein from!
