Job Description

Objective

To support client’s conference growth strategy by transforming SEO keyword research into high-quality, idea-first content that attracts qualified, high-intent audiences. The writer will create compelling, community-driven articles that integrate insights from speakers, attendees, and contributors through interviews and collaborative storytelling.

Profile Overview

Client is seeking a seasoned SEO content writer who can balance strategic search optimization with premium, thought-leadership storytelling. This role requires working from a Compose.ly-provided keyword research report and translating it into content that aligns with the client's brand: intellectually rich, community-led, and non-transactional.

The ideal candidate understands how to:

  • Maintain an idea-first narrative (not sales-driven)
  • Collaborate with multiple contributors and co-authors
  • Conduct and synthesize expert interviews into cohesive content

Scope

  • Ongoing monthly engagement (starting after initial SEO research phase)
  • 2 articles per month (20 hours total)
  • Articles will incorporate interviews with speakers, attendees, or community members
  • Writer will collaborate directly with client stakeholders to refine topics and direction

Responsibilities

  • Translate SEO keyword research and content strategy into compelling article topics
  • Develop outlines and structure aligned with SEO goals and editorial voice
  • Conduct interviews with community members (e.g., speakers, attendees, experts)
  • Synthesize multiple contributor inputs into a single, cohesive narrative
  • Ensure content reflects client’s community-first and idea-first positioning
  • Integrate keywords naturally while maintaining a premium tone
  • Collaborate on content workflows that may include co-authorship or contributed sections
  • Maintain consistency across articles while adapting to different subject matter experts
  • Ensure all content aligns with client’s brand standards and avoids overly promotional language

Skills and Qualifications

  • Proven experience in SEO content writing and strategy execution
  • Strong background in interview-based or thought leadership writing
  • Ability to write for high-level, intellectually sophisticated audiences
  • Experience working with content briefs, keyword reports, and search intent
  • Exceptional storytelling and editorial judgment
  • Ability to manage multiple contributors and perspectives in one piece
  • Familiarity with luxury brands, media platforms, or mission-driven organizations
  • Strong research and interviewing skills
  • Ability to adapt tone to be inspirational, insightful, and non-salesy
