Job Description
Kuno is a premium brand and agency that delivers high-quality marketing and sales services to clients. Clients expect this high standard in everything we do, which includes, but is not limited to, copywriting, proofing, editing, visual critiques, and recommendations on improving the quality of any and all client deliverables. Kuno is also a technology company that uses many digital platforms related to website design, marketing automation, and advertising. Clients expect the same high level of quality within these platforms that goes beyond basic copy proofing. Clients expect consistency in formatting, styles, links, tags, images, alt images, header tags, meta information, and messaging. One of the primary responsibilities of the Digital Content Editor role at Kuno is to ensure we deliver “agency” quality work to our clients.
General Responsibilities

- Editing, inputting and optimizing blog articles – Blog posts are often supplied in word processing documents such as Google Docs and need to be entered according to client calendars. Copy will need to be proofed and edited. Sometimes images (from our stock image library) will need to be found, cropped, optimized (for size) and added. Some articles will need SEO (search engine optimization) with the keywords, links (internal and external), and alt tags. Most articles will need call-to-action (CTA) references/links added to direct to landing pages (usually within the HubSpot software).
- Write website copy, emails, digital ads, etc. for Kuno clients based on best practices for SEO and according to advertising guidelines. We typically have several website redesign projects each quarter. Our brand journalist will conduct interviews to help you better understand the personas we are targeting and the key messages we want to communicate.
