About Animalz

Animalz is a content marketing agency that partners with B2B SaaS companies, venture capital firms, and other tech organizations to drive long-term, sustainable growth through high-quality content.

About the Role

As a Content Marketer on our SEO team, you'll write and optimize content for a portfolio of B2B technology customers. You'll work closely with your Head of Content and Associate Head of Content, who will provide strategy direction, training, and regular feedback as you grow.

• Learn to create performance reports and communicate results to customers
• Occasionally review freelancer work on your accounts to ensure it meets quality standards

• Contribute to team knowledge-sharing a nd internal initiatives

What We're Looking For

• 2–4 years of experience in content marketing, preferably in B2B SaaS or an agency setting
• Strong writing and editing skills with solid SEO knowledge (keyword research, on-page optimization, and the ability to analyze why content isn't ranking)
• Familiarity with content and analytics tools (e.g., Google Analytics, Ahrefs, Clearscope)
• Familiarity with AI tools (e.g., ChatGPT, Claude) and ability to use them to support, not replace, quality writing
• Technical curiosity: genuine interest in learning how software products work so you can write about them clearly
• Reliability: you deliver quality work on time, even when juggling multiple projects
• Coachability: you're open to feedback and eager to develop your craft
• Strong communication and remote collaboration skills

At Animalz, our values guide how we show up for our customers, our teammates, and the content we create.
