Content Strategist (m/w/d) in DACH-Region - (>25-40h Positions)

About notus:

Many companies already see the value of personal branding & content, but struggle to:

• come up with the right strategy
• find the time to produce content
• be consistent and play the long-game

That’s why we’re here.

At notus, we build content engines for B2B founders & executives.

We help them leverage the best marketing asset there is - people. (aka personal brands)

We believe that in the future, businesses will thrive on personal brand-led content, so it’s our mission to build an ecosystem of businesses driven by it.

Our roots are in New York City, where our founder, Marvin Sanginés, started documenting his journey starting a marketing agency in 2020.

In the process, he realized that what brought him the most value & opportunities was his personal brand - so he wanted to offer his clients the same.

Fast forward 4 years, and we’ve had the pleasure to work with some of the coolest founders & executives in the game.

From 9-figure entrepreneurs like Noah Kagan and Jesse Puji, to executives of billion-dollar companies like Swisscom and Rhomberg.

notus is young and growing fast.

Our team consists of driven individuals with a love for content, an eye for detail and a whole lot of positive energy.

The content strategist role is very popular because you literally get paid to learn from successful founders & execs every day. (yes, you read that right.)

In addition, we support you in building your own personal brand.

So, what will you be doing? Let’s take a closer look at the role:

What does a content strategist do at notus?

As a Content Strategist, you'll be responsible for managing the entire content operation of your personal branding clients.

We think of the content strategist position as a mix of:

• Copywriter
• Project Manager
• Customer Success Manager

To understand what this means, it helps to know what our process looks like:

Every client project starts with a setup phase, where we:

• craft their content strategy
• optimize their LinkedIn profile
• build their holistic media strategy

Once that’s set, we transition into our ongoing content engine process.

Here’s where we conduct bi-weekly content calls with the client, to extract their expert knowledge and personal insight as input for content ideas.

We then break down the call into content outlines, and write LinkedIn content that:

• represents their ideas and subject matter expertise
• helps them attract the right people
• achieve their business goals
• sounds like they wrote it

Our job as content strategists is to ensure smooth communication with the client and stay on top of project timelines.

On top of that, we create monthly reports to keep them up to date on how their content is performing.

If that sounds like a lot, don’t worry - you’re not starting cold.

All new hires run through our Content Strategist Academy, the training program that teaches everything we’ve learned from 110+ personal branding projects.

This is how we get all of our content strategists up to speed in no time.

On top of that, you will be paired with a more experienced Senior Content Strategist to guide you through the process.

You’ll make a great fit at notus if:

• you’re a proactive communicator and able to adapt to different personalities
• you have excellent English and German writing & communication skills
• you are highly organized and able to manage many moving pieces
• you possess strong emotional intelligence and empathy
• you’re curious and eager to learn about any topic
• you have excellent copywriting skills
• you have a passion for content
• you’re eager to build your own personal brand
• you are a team player that lifts other people up
• you are skilled at thorough research and understanding
• you are a detailed worker with high standards for quality
• you can take and implement feedback well and without ego

Additional details:

• We have slots for both full-time (40h a week) and part-time (>25 hours a week) positions. Depending on skill-level we also hire freelance Trainees (40h a week for 3 months) or more experienced applicants directly full- or part-time.
• Full-time salary starting at 2400€ gross a month. (Trainees are paid minimum wage during the training but will be compensated additionally with paid courses etc, and with the first pay raise after the 3-month training)
• The position is 100% remote. (with the occasional in-person team offsite)
• At the moment we are only hiring employees in the DACH-region (primary residence), but will have international freelance gigs again in the near future.
• We’re hiring for immediate starting dates (this will be a recurring opening every few months with adjusted starting dates.)
• All of our strategists have the opportunity to prove themselves and take on more responsibilities with great performance and commitment. (Take it from Luca Wetzel, who started as a content strategist 12 months ago, and now leads all projects as Head of Fulfillment)
• Content strategists have the opportunity for profit shares for bringing in new business.

Why should you work with notus?

• We invest in resources and learning material (access to courses, co-horts, and internal masterminds)
• You get to work directly with founders and entrepreneurs (build relationships and learn from them)
• You get to build your own personal brand (put out content and grow your audience)
• We're 100% remote (in-person events are part of the agenda)
• We're international (both our team and our clients are spread across the globe with a strong emphasis on the DACH region)

Okay, you applied for the position, what's next?

You'll receive an email with a Typeform questionnaire. To ensure we can give every application the attention it deserves, we kindly ask that all applicants complete the Typeform. Only those who do so will be reviewed and receive a response, as we are unable to manage the high volume of applications from online platforms. Thank you for your understanding!

We have a multi-step recruiting process:

2. receive an invite to complete an unpaid trial assessment to test your personal branding writing skills.
3. Once the previous steps are done, it's interview time. In three 30-minute interviews we get to know YOU, your people skills and determine your fit for the role and our organization.
4. If it's a match it could be one of the two options at notus: Traineeship (3-months, full-time & hopefully full hire afterwards) or full-time hire...

So don’t hesitate and apply now - we are looking forward to receiving your application.
