Employment Opportunities
We believe that a job is more than a paycheck and that search marketing is an exciting career.
We’re a company that strives to be a team. Our company culture reflects our passion for doing great work and supporting each other while doing it.
Note from Bruce
Bruce Clay Inc is an expert search marketing agency. Our SEO and PPC analysts have an average well above 10+ years of experience and our services are not for the timid. We focus on SEO and PPC deep dives to increase search traffic for small to large clients in competitive industries.
Our business is growing and we seek analysts all of the time. This is for people loving agency work, want to expand their expertise, and love solving a variety of puzzles. Sort of becoming a doctor by working in an ER room… you see it all.
We seek 10+ year SEO experts, PPC experts, and a hard hybrid role – SEO aware content creator across many disciplines. In all cases we provide our training on our methods so we move as a team, and it is a very rewarding experience. If you are great at what you do but are not with a leader and want to expand your career, contact us.
BUT we are also looking for an SEO content guru to work on internal websites. We have several and we would like to revisit every page. Time to refresh and expand, clarify and educate, and rise further above the others. These folks are not usually going to be involved in agency efforts (although we do sometimes need everyone involved), but rather they are mostly our in-house staff. Subtle to be sure.
These positions are all WORK-FROM-HOME, but candidates must reside in the USA. All positions are to be employees (not contractors). These are full-time positions with frequent communication needs, some is ad-hoc, so we do not allow side projects, second jobs or other activities that will interfere with our work. Nice benefits and 401(k) … read on.
Contractors: if you are able to provide reasonably dedicated time, do not live in California, but are within the USA then feel free to reach out to discuss options. Much of the description material still applies but you would not be an employee.
If any of these roles are of interest please contact us at bc-personnel@bruceclay.com. And, while these are fully work-from-home roles, we do require that you live in the United States to comply with our PEO.
Thank you!
NOTES: We are entirely a “hire-at-will” employer. Nothing here will at all be interpreted as a formal contract or in anyway limit the company from altering the descriptions or restricting at-will rights or conditions for itself or the employee. As is customary, we do not offer employment contracts or promises of employment, compensation or benefits. All positions will also require a comprehensive background check as allowed by law.
The salary range for our jobs varies by job of course, but lowest to highest is $44,000 to $144,000 (see the descriptions below). Each position will have their ranges specified, although the law permits fluctuation by geography (i.e., state), education, specific experience, competency, seniority, company needs, and some other skill factors. The wages paid are at the discretion of the company. Basically we pay a competitive wage within our means and strive to hire the best.
Seniority
Each position has five levels of seniority, each appropriate to the needs of the business and roles. Not all positions have all levels of seniority. In general they are:
- Base level such as Analyst – 1+ years commonly
- Senior Level – 10+ years commonly
- Staff level – 15+ years commonly
- Consultant – 20+ years commonly
Other titles are sometimes used such as Producer or Editor.
NOTE: We do occasionally hire Consultants-to-Employee staff (start as a consultant until deciding if we are right for each other) based upon project needs. If you are interested in trying us out and working on exciting projects please let us know.
Each position can have any grades and the grades are not automatic nor impact compensation. Compensation is based upon contribution. And we can have a Senior with 15 years in some roles. Fear not, we are fair and reward if earned.
Active Openings
We are currently not hiring. When we do it is in the USA as work-from-home employees.

Compensation
In some states it is illegal to post a “remote” or work-from-home position without stating a salary range. In many cases the salary range will be based upon what is considered competitive, but that shifts rapidly with the economy. We have reviewed salary ranges and have generally set ours from the low average to the maximum for each position. To make that a bit easier we commonly hire senior staff and we select an appropriate salary based upon many factors including most notably the experience of the candidate, the match to our needs, the urgency of our needs, the broad and deep skills for a specific project, occasionally the time zone or location of the candidate, and within all of that then to a comperable compensation to existing employees in your area. Our salary ranges are usually accepted. We feel that a rare skillset can create exceptions. Please understand that exceptional talent is desired. We can hire above or below these ranges as long as these were the intent when posted and exceptions are justified so please feel free to apply if you wish to work with us. Your mileage may vary.
Note, that the roles listed here are the posted positions. And that the ranges and availability of these positions are subject to change as business conditions fluctuate. No other compensation ranges on any other website are under our control and thus please refer to this page exclusively for current ranges, postings and benefits. There is no guarantee that positions will remain open so contact the company for details.
