As a small agency, we rely on our people to be both talented and versatile. Each day is different, but typical responsibilities for this position include:

Social/digital media: You will play a lead role in the development and execution of digital marketing and advertising for all King clients. This includes strategy development, content creation and analysis of paid and organic social media campaigns, Google Ads campaigns, email marketing campaign and SEO efforts. This also includes coordinating with external digital advertising partners to develop and execute targeted digital campaigns. Monitoring, optimization and analysis is also your responsibility.
Content development: You must be able to develop high quality written content. This includes copywriting for websites, with a particular attention to SEO; social and digital media; blogs; native content and more. You will also assist with writing and proofreading ad copy, press releases, proposals, contracts and other professional documents.
Project management: You will also be responsible for project management and other client tasks on select accounts. This will include communicating with vendors and media partners. You will be asked to support new business development by contributing to social/digital proposal development and project estimation.
Creative and strategic contributions: All team members are expected to contribute actively to the creative and strategic direction of all client accounts. This requires developing an in-depth knowledge of each client and bringing new ideas to team strategy sessions.
Client meetings and presentations: As the agency's social/digital subject matter expert, you will play a role in client meetings and presentations. You will be expected to present social/digital strategies to current and prospective clients, answer questions knowledgeably and follow up with additional information as needed.
Research and analysis: King's client solutions are strategically grounded, so you are expected to contribute to client research and analysis. You will prepare regular campaign metrics reports that clearly outline key takeaways gleaned from the campaign analytics. You will be expected to share these reports with clients and clearly explain campaign outcomes and recommendations for future campaigns.
Administrative duties: Each member of the King team is expected to perform various administrative duties in support of the company's goals. We all pitch in to keep our office running smoothly.
