About Maddox + You:

You will be an integrated part of a small, but powerful, marketing team. This role is responsible for writing the copy that reaches and resonates with our customers (commercial and industrial end-users, electrical contractors, and resellers of industrial electrical equipment). 

You will report to the marketing manager and will be responsible for writing the copy for articles, video scripts, emails, social media, website pages, and ad campaigns. You need to be great at managing multiple projects, be good with deadlines, communicating well with colleagues, and working collaboratively in a fast paced environment. 

You do NOT need to possess in-depth technical knowledge about industrial transformers on day one. In this role, you will work with and learn from the engineering team and other subject matter experts. The key aspect will be to take what you learn and to translate it in a clear, concrete, and creative way to raise awareness of the company’s products and services. 

This is an ideal role for someone looking to build a career with an employer who values your strong character, stable lifestyle, and dedicated work ethic.

More about You:

• Ability to write clear, concise, and persuasive copy.
• Ability to quickly learn and to be curious about technical subject matters. 
• Good at short and long-form content creation. 
• A creative mindset and the ability to think outside the box.
• A strong work ethic, with the ability to work independently and as part of a team.
• You enjoy having deadlines, as well as scheduling and managing multiple projects
• Strong writing and editing skills with a keen eye for detail.
• Proficient with basic computer software (Excel, Word, Email, etc.)
• Good communicator. You will need to maintain email conversations each day. If your grammar is poor, or you are slow at writing, you will struggle in this role.
• Savvy with using modern software and ability to learn new systems and processes quickly.
