Whether you’re well-schooled in the art of marketing or an outsider looking for a creative outlet, we’ve got a place for the people with a passion for creating great ideas.

  • You think there is no such thing as a bad idea.
  • You like to use the phrase “outside of the box.”

  • You already stopped reading this list.
  • You’re easily offended. 

First, a little about us: We’re not your typical agency. We have fun, but we’re serious about our work. We’re smart, but also a little crazy.

Over the past 30 years, we’ve continuously grown services and staff. We have some great clients to thank for that. But, it really all comes down to the team that develops and executes big ideas.

We look for talent from both in- and outside the marketing industry to grow along with the agency.

We look for talent from both in- and outside the marketing industry to grow along with the agency. We’ve been known to have account executives who craft great content and traditional designers who lend impressive visions to web production.

Now let’s talk about you: We hire people, not positions. So if you’re up for the challenge, then we’re willing to challenge you. The only true job requirement is creativity. Inventive minds capable of adaptation to virtually any marketing tasks are welcome.

Web Developer

ABC is looking for a highly motivated, detail-oriented go-getter who thinks outside of the box and knows how to maximize … blah, blah, blah. Look, if you know how to build flawlessly functional, beautifully designed and generally kickass websites, we’d really like you to work here. We’re looking for someone who doesn’t use any of the aforementioned resume clichés and just knows how to get the job done.

What’s the job? Our web developers are first and foremost a member of the creative team, lending ideas and digital expertise to achieve client goals.

Candidates must be fully capable of managing our clients’ sites and translating code into stimulating visuals that capture the concepts we come up with.

Skills:

  • Develop & Maintain WordPress sites using PHP
  • Proficient in HTML, CSS, JS
  • Ability to translate site prototypes into visual working web experiences
  • Site Design Prototyping a plus
  • Ability to follow consistent coding methods
  • Understanding of ADA Compliance a plus
  • Knowledge of site speed techniques a plus
  • Ability to develop API connections a plus

Send your best work and a little bit about yourself to careers@abcideabased.com and we’ll get back to you if we like what we see.

Social Media Strategist

If you’re going to make a living doing social media, your copy better be a step or two or three above cute or cliché. ABC is looking for a social media strategist capable of capturing sometimes-complex material with brevity. The copy may be concise, but the challenge is real and ABC needs someone real good at accepting it again and again and again. We’re talking upward of 40 posts a week for about a dozen different clients, each with a unique voice that you will need to project in each post.

Don’t get us wrong, the social media grind is as cool as they come, with lots of opportunity to get creative and have some fun. You’ll manage a numerous and diverse mix of clients, so excellent organization is a must. One minute you are recruiting for jobs or volunteers, and the next you are launching a brand-new product to a very select audience – maybe even reaching out to influencers to help you do all of it. Oh, and don’t forget the platforms. Every one is different in how we approach the post and the content.

What used to be throwing up a quip with a link will not suffice in this field where we’re always competing for attention. Social media is a major part of what we do as a full-service agency, so you’ll work closely with designers and videographers to create some kickass content.

You’ll also be responsible for monitoring and reporting on all this stuff, helping us determine what’s working, what’s not and what new industry trends to take advantage of, so stay up on that. Social monitoring is extremely important, as you’ll need to keep up with comments and DMs, working closely with account managers and clients to respond accordingly.

You’ll need to be as proficient with the pen as you are savvy on social. You’ll need to flex some PR muscle, primarily through influencer outreach to get popular personalities on board with our brands. You’ll be part of the Content Team, so expect to do some extended copywriting too in the form of blog posts, articles and press releases. It is essential that everything you write be grammatically sound and in accordance with AP Style.

All this activity is day-to-day, but you’ll also need to take the long view as you develop posts month(s) in advance and back this planning with strategic thinking. All this is to say you’re expected to be independent in terms of coming up with ideas and making them happen. But, you can also expect the assistance of the entire Content Team that you’re a part of.

If this sounds good, send in your resume and a handful of relevant samples to careers@abcideabased.com

Media Strategist

Here at ABC, we pour just as much creative energy into our media plans as we do our concepts. So, we’re looking for a media strategist who does more than just perform keyword research and place banner ads. We’re looking for someone who can collaborate with the creative team with the same passion they put into big-picture media strategies and account service.

Job candidates should have plenty of experience in and knowledge of it all: traditional, digital and emerging media. We’re looking for someone who can explain all that to clients in the form of media plans, presentations and reports as well.

Measurement is important, obviously, and we tend to show proof of execution in the most digestible facts and figures possible. So we need an analyst, not just a strategist. We need someone capable of boiling down complex material to something that makes actual sense and makes clients happy.

You’ll work closely with your Media Director and Creative Director to get things done, so you’re not on your own. This is a collaborative environment where we tackle marketing challenges as a team, where you’ll play a major role in digital marketing specifically.

We get creative here, especially with emerging media. We like to get our kickass concepts out into the world efficiently and effectively. If you can help us accomplish this on a regular basis, we want you to join us.

The media strategist gig is no game. You’ll have millions of dollars to place and you’ll be held accountable for the performance. So, we need a responsible rockstar capable of handling all these duties.
