We are a small company and will take the time to find the right cultural fit for us. Just know that all of us at Hook Agency come from different backgrounds. We have made it our duty to look at every single candidate’s ability, character, and spirit and not judge them based on their past, labels, or identity. Even if you don’t work here, we’d be honored to do anything we can to help you along your journey.

  • A solid understanding of marketing (someone who “gets it”)

  • Excellent verbal and written communication skills
  • Graphic Design ability + taste
  • WordPress content entry and basic editing
  • Ability to delegate, coordinate, and hold outside vendors and contractors accountable
  • Persuasive copywriting
  • Social media skills, including short form video experience (bonus points for any viral videos you’ve created + can share with us)

  • Nice to have: Creativity about weird campaigns that capture people’s imaginations + boost engagement (examples: we’ve made a Hook hot sauce, a Hook cologne, and just finished running a jingle contest) 🎶
