ABOUT US

Since 2014, ‘Vubo’ has helped businesses looking to scale by providing them quality sales ready leads generated from our own websites. Over the last few years we have grown significantly and we are particularly proud of:

  • Having large national and international businesses buy our leads year after year
  • Generating 1000+ leads month after month in competitive niches with organic traffic
  • Ranking our sites in top 3 spots for competitive keywords
  • Developing a content marketing process that attracts natural links from high quality sites like CNBC, Google Cloud, Entrepreneur.com, Trello, Intuit, NerdWallet, WeWork, and SquareUp

We have ambitious plans to continue our growth through systemising and scaling our content marketing processes, developing paid marketing capabilities and completing some significant website re-designs.

ABOUT THE ROLE

I am looking for a Content Manager who will manage the execution of the content strategy in order to increase organic traffic from target customers or attract topical links. This role will be interacting directly with the founder and the freelancers who are carrying out the work.

There’s plenty of opportunity for growth including taking on content planning, direction and strategy as we grow.

Your main responsibilities as a Content Manager will include:

  • Carry out user intent and market research to create content briefs
  • Create a content plan for each site that includes guides, reviews, lists, resources etc that match the search intent of our target audience or will attract topical links
  • Recruit and manage any additional freelance writers, researchers or designers we need
  • Finding subject matter experts to review or contribute to content (they could be found on Linkedin, Upwork etc)
  • Manage writers, researchers and designers to ensure the content plan gets executed
  • Determine which content needs refreshing or updating based on our KPIs and organise this to be done
  • Provide clear content briefs for each writer with target completion dates
  • Proofread, edit and improve content before publishing on Wordpress (uploading can be outsourced if you prefer)
  • Improve our content creation processes and SOPs to enable scalable growth (at present we have writer guides in Notion and Monday.com is used to manage all tasks and freelancers).
  • Creating SOPs and templates to develop a content production workflow that allows us to scale up efficiently and maintain quality standards
  • Take care of imagery, illustrations, charts, tables etc
  • Get content published on Wordpress

If you’d been working with us then in the past few weeks you’d have worked on:

  • Creating content briefs for guides and company / product reviews I've already planned for Merchant Savvy
  • Updating existing guides and reviews on Merchant Savvy
  • Managing the creation of a new Stats / Data article (link magnet) and updating an existing one
  • Finding a writer for Merchant Savvy
  • Start working on creating / improving SOPs
