Job Summary
Who You Are:
Youre the person who sees a mess and instinctively creates order. When someone says weve never done this before can you figure it out you dont panic you get energized and curious.
Youre equally comfortable wading out into the internet to build lead lists as you are spotting which 30-second clip from a podcast will actually get shares. You know that AI is here to stay and you have developed your own workflows for the repetitive stuff so you can focus on the human work. You ask clarifying questions upfront to avoid redoing work later. You cant help but document as you go because you know future-you (and others) will need it. When somethings blocked you find the workaround or flag it immediatelyyou dont let things sit.
Youre not looking for a job where someone tells you exactly what to do every day. You want to build something see the direct impact of your work and have real ownership over how things get done. You like the idea of starting in this role and one day having a team or running an agency.
