Compensation: $1,500 – $2,000 / month USD  Contractual | California business hours | Compensation is based on experience, depth of B2B SEO/content expertise, and demonstrated results. There is strong potential for compensation growth based on performance and impact within the first 3–6 months.  ABOUT CDMS  CDMS is a B2B Environmental, Health & Safety (EHS) services company. We work directly with manufacturing and industrial clients, helping them stay compliant, safe, and operationally sound.  We have strong technical expertise and a clear brand. This role is about turning that expertise into a consistent, credible, and results-driven digital presence.  THE ROLE  This is a senior contractual role, not a management position, but one that requires you to operate independently and with sound judgment. You will own our digital marketing output end-to-end: SEO strategy and implementation, content creation, LinkedIn presence, and brand collateral. You will deeply learn our voice, our clients, and our industry, and use that knowledge to build a presence that earns trust in a technical, compliance-driven space.  You will work closely with our leadership team, who will brief you directly from client conversations and field intelligence. Your job is to transform that raw material into polished, on-brand content that sounds like us: credible, clear, and grounded in real EHS work.  If you have ever built a B2B content engine from a standing start and you understand what it takes to earn authority in a niche technical industry, this role was written for you.  WHAT SUCCESS LOOKS LIKE (3–6 MONTHS)  Grow LinkedIn presence by 50%–100%, with a focus on relevant, industry-aligned followers  Increase qualified inbound leads by 30%–70%, supported by consistent content and targeted outreach  Improve organic website traffic by 20%–40% through SEO optimization and new content  Establish a consistent, high-quality content cadence across blog, LinkedIn, and newsletters  Build an initial pipeline of case studies and thought leadership content based on real client work  Deliver clear monthly reporting with actionable recommendations - not just data  Note: These targets are supported by timely input from leadership, tool access (Ahrefs, etc.), and shared alignment on priorities.
