SEO Strategist at Disruptive Advertising

*Company located in Utah - Employees can work in the office or remotely in most locations in the US. This is a full-time opportunity, not a contract opportunity.

What we are actually looking for: You're passionate about SEO. Really passionate. You LOVE to nerd out on chatting SEO tactics, big SEO wins and industry trends. Algorithm updates? Those just keep you on your toes and that's what you love about SEO - the ever-changing SERP landscape. You can pivot quickly and you're not afraid to take calculated risks when the data supports the need to do so. You're focused and results-driven.

Are you really looking for another unfulfilling marketing job where you spin your wheels and watch your skills and potential dwindle away? Didn’t think so. You’re the type of person who needs to be challenged both personally and professionally. As much as you love business and marketing, you’re equally excited to grow yourself personally. You’ll love participating and contributing to our personal development programs at Disruptive, helping us realize and live our potential together.

We’re not like other agencies who cap the growth of their people. Instead, leaders come to Disruptive to accelerate their career growth and unlock their full potential as a marketer. Employees have even said, “1 year of marketing experience at Disruptive is comparable to 3 years anywhere else.”

Core Values:

• Authentic - We live in alignment with our strengths, values, and unique abilities.
• Grateful- We find joy in the journey!
• Inside Out- We focus on what we can control and don't waste time worrying about what we can't. We lead with what we can improve and do better, not with what others should change.
• Growth Minded - We choose and love the growth process. We push through the pain and challenges when others would quit. We enjoy the growth journey and don't get sucked into the "I'll be happy when" syndrome. We are willing to take a step backward when that sets us up for two steps forward.
• Caring- Those we interact with feel seen and understood. We show up to serve the moment, others, and our community.
• Win/Win/Win - We are committed to the win/win/win; if it’s not a win for any 3 of these parties (Company, Client, Employee), I do what it takes to make it so.
