This role is open to US, African, and Europe based applicants only.
Instructjet is hiring a Digital Marketing Consultant to work with our clients on their marketing. Some of them are local businesses, some are bigger, and almost all of them have the same basic problem: they want more customers and aren’t sure why they aren’t getting them.
That’s where you come in. You’ll sit down with a client, figure out how their business works, look at what they’re doing now, and tell them what’s holding them back. Then you’ll help them fix it. Sometimes that means rethinking who they’re targeting. Sometimes the offer isn’t strong enough. Sometimes people visit the website and leave, and you have to work out why.
You won’t be stuck on one type of business. One week it might be a neighborhood shop, the next week something completely different. If you like figuring out why something isn’t working, you’ll probably enjoy this.
What the work looks like
Day to day, you’ll be:
Learning each client’s business, customers, and competitors
Putting together marketing plans and deciding what the client should do first
Planning content for platforms like TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, and LinkedIn, and looking for chances to work with creators and customer-made content
Running small experiments, checking the numbers, and recommending what to change
Talking to clients directly, reviewing their current marketing, and explaining your findings in plain language
Many of our clients don’t have a marketing background, so a big part of the job is explaining things simply. We don’t just want you to tell them what to do. We want them to understand why, and how they’ll know if it worked.
Who we think would be a good fit
You don’t need an agency or consulting background. We care more about how you think than where you’ve worked. You might come from digital marketing, growth, content, analytics, product marketing, or a startup. You might come from somewhere else entirely.
What matters is that you’re curious about why businesses succeed or struggle, you’re comfortable with data, you write and speak clearly, and you like turning an idea into a real test. You don’t need to tick every box on a list.
Pay and the long term
The salary is US$60,000 a year. This is a long-term position, not a freelance project. We’re looking for someone who wants to build their consulting and strategy skills with us over time.
How hiring works:
Apply on Hubstaff with your resume or profile and a short note about your experience and why you want the job.
We review your profile.
If it looks promising, we’ll send you a short marketing test. It’s a realistic client problem, something like: a small business gets website traffic and social media engagement but very few customers, so how would you diagnose it and what would you test? It isn’t a big unpaid project, and we don’t expect a perfect answer. We just want to see how you think.
If the test goes well, we’ll have a conversation with you about your ideas and how you’d work with clients.
If it feels right on both sides, we’ll make you an offer.
Please keep everything on Hubstaff. If you really need to reach us by email, you can reach us on hubstaff message.
