Vacancy Details
Employer: My Content Pal
The Mission
This is not a traditional writing role. We're not looking for just another writer. We're looking for someone who can turn our clients ideas into content that makes readers stop scrolling and start taking action.
At My Content Pal, we're building a team of elite content creators who understand that great writing isn't just about words, it's about driving real business results.
What This Role Really Is
If you’ve been feeling stuck, undervalued, or unsure how to evolve in an AI-dominated industry, this role will give you the mentorship, skills, and strategy to future-proof your career and become irreplaceable in the content industry.
You’ll learn more in 12 months with us than most writers do in 3 years.
What You'll Do
-
Transform rough ideas into compelling content that captures attention and drives engagement
-
Create high-impact content across multiple formats:
-
Long-form SEO articles that establish authority (90%)
-
Social media posts that stop the scroll (5%)
-
Email sequences that convert (5%)
Who We're Looking For
We want someone who’s ready to evolve.
✅ You’ve felt frustrated by the AI wave but want to use it to your advantage, not fight it.
✅ You know that writing alone isn’t enough anymore, you want to expand your skillset.
✅ You’re obsessed with understanding what makes people read, click and take action.
✅ You don’t just want to write, you want to strategize and grow.
✅ You’re ready for mentorship and rapid skill-building instead of just doing “another gig.”
✅ You take ownership of results, not just tasks.
Why this role is different:
✅ Be mentored directly by our founder, skip the years of trial and error.
✅ Join a high-performance team
✅ Get paid to grow, not just to write.
Warning
This is NOT a role for someone looking to coast. The pace is intense, the learning curve is steep, and the expectations are high. But if you're hungry for accelerated growth and want to build a career, not just hold a job, you'll thrive here.
Our Core Values
At My Content Pal, we live and breathe these principles:
Client Obsession
Our clients trust us with their businesses, their cash, and their careers. Every word we write, every strategy we implement, and every decision we make is focused on delivering exceptional value to them. Their success is our success.
Action Bias
We believe in rapid execution and learning from results. Perfect is the enemy of progress. We take intelligent risks, move fast, and adjust based on data. Our team members are empowered to make decisions and take ownership.
Growth Obsession
We're fanatical about growth - our clients' growth, our personal growth, and our company's growth. This creates a powerful flywheel effect where everyone wins. If you're not excited about constant improvement, this isn't the place for you.
Operational Excellence
We run a tight ship because our clients deserve nothing less. Every process, every system, and every deliverable is optimized for maximum impact with minimum waste.
