Remote Content Manager at Ellipsis

Ellipsis is a world-class SEO Content agency. SEO is winner-takes-all, and we make our clients the winners. We produce SEO Content that achieves top rankings for clients at scale.

As one of our Content Managers, you’ll play an important role in ensuring we continue to produce great SEO Content for our clients that’s delivered on time and gets results. You’ll be the main point of contact for your clients throughout the Content Growth process and will be responsible for managing their content, keeping them happy, and making sure we produce great work for them.

We are on a mission to be the best in the world at SEO Content. Your role as our new Content Manager is at the heart of the content production.

Ellipsis is a 100% remote team, and we’ve been fully remote since our first day 5 years ago. We lean into the best things about being remote: we balance collaboration, “Deep Work”, regular team retreats, and we put a lot of work into a supporting and inclusive culture where everyone can do the best work of their careers.

We’re distributed across the world, but our core collaboration hours are GMT/UTC-based. Our team is distributed across the US, Europe, and Asia. We often meet up with colleagues for team meetups and conferences.

Our SEO Content work is branded as Content Growth, and clients engage us to produce a set number of posts each month on retainer based on an SEO Content strategy we formulate for them which is focused on bringing them impressive results.

With Content Growth, we take care of everything end-to-end, from high-level SEO strategy, keyword selection (which is powered by our proprietary FALCON AI – which was in the New York Times last year), content briefs, content production, publication, promotion and link building, rank tracking, and troubleshooting SEO queries. Our Content team leads these projects and takes care of the content production, and our SEO team takes care of the SEO requirements.

Ellipsis is growing quickly. We do outstanding work and are building something special. It’s an exciting time to join us.

As our new Content Manager, you'll work closely with our Head of Content, Writing team, and Strategy department, to deliver amazing, SEO-driven content marketing which gets results to clients.

You’ll be a key part of the Content team, joining three other Content Managers, with your own portfolio of clients to manage. There’s plenty of scope to grow within this position, and we’ll offer you rapid progress for your skills and career

This position can be broken down as follows:

• 40% content process and project management
• 40% proofreading, copy editing and writing outlines

Similarly, you’re obsessive with processes: you’ll proactively improve our existing processes wherever possible, and have enough experience with project management to know that smooth internal processes lie at the heart of every successful business.
