So, what is crux? It’s the nitty gritty, the heart of the matter. It’s substance, the bottom line.

Crux merges executive-level marketing and business strategy to provide a simple, smart and affordable marketing solution for our clients. We like to think of ourselves as our clients’ in-house marketing department—outsourced. We bring the same loyalty and dedication to our clients’ mission but at the fraction of the cost of hiring and retaining a senior-level marketing team. We know the traditional agency model isn’t an ideal fit for everyone, so we take a different approach. Think of us as the “un-agency.”

And we’re growing! We’re looking for a talented and driven SEO Analyst to help us execute strategic and effective marketing plans for our clients. You’ll work with the team to support integrated multi-channel marketing campaigns. You should be extremely detail-oriented with excellent written, verbal, and analytical skills.

You should be a storyteller at heart, and recognize that if every piece of marketing material isn’t telling a story and communicating a clear message, then they’re not worth the paper or pixels they’re on.
