Hi there! We’re WebFX, a full-funnel revenue marketing agency based in the US. We’ve been 9x named a Best Place to Work, and we’d love to meet you!

While WebFX and our subsidiary companies, such as Nutshell CRM, SEO.com, and TeamAI, are growing rapidly, we are committed to growing strategically and sustainably, and that starts with growing our team of the #BestCoworkers - that’s where you come in!

We're looking for talented professionals to join our amazing Nutshell team. Nutshell is an award-winning CRM and email marketing platform, and as of 2022, WebFX and Nutshell have officially joined forces. Our teams work together closely to provide the very best products and services to our clients, and we're on the hunt for people just like you, who take pride in their work and want to be part of a company that does too.

To aid in your success, we also provide world-class industry training (Organic SEO, Local SEO, PPC, Google Analytics, etc.), long-term career track opportunities, and ongoing learning bonuses (yes, you can get paid to learn!), along with numerous other benefits! 

Some of the additional benefits our team enjoys include:

You can learn more about just some of our proprietary tools here.
- Be part of a rapidly growing company that, at the same time, only partners with clients who share our values. 🌱📈

- Annual merit-based compensation increases! 💰
- Access to virtual professional development opportunities with company experts and virtual team-building events like monthly meetups and hangouts.
- Invitation to our annual FXFest – a week-long, all-expenses-paid trip for our international team members (with a 1-year tenure) to our company headquarters. This event is filled with activities, learning, and motivation to help unite our U.S. and global staff! 🛫
- We have a very strong commitment to giving back globally - in fact, it’s one of our values here at WebFX and Nutshell. As a member of our FXFamily, you get to be a large part of that simply by achieving your goals - since 2014, we’ve committed to donating globally through our FXBuilds program. You can learn more about that here!

What You'll Get

World-Class Training and Ongoing Career Development

- From training with our Award-Winning Sr. Developers, Designers, Marketers, and more to access to countless industry-leading online training resources/courses/tutorials to getting experience with our client base that spans just about every industry you can think of (and then some), our training program is simply unrivaled!
- Training doesn’t stop after your initial training period, we offer career development training and monthly Lunch-and-Learns with our state-of-the-art training amenities to facilitate departmental training, industry-related updates, and more!
- FXLearns program – where you get incentives for taking advantage of our countless industry training resources!
- With a track record of serving over 1,500+ clients, we’ve been able to truly master our processes and procedures, and we’ll train you on them - no need to develop how to do things (unless you want to help us continually improve that process!), because we refuse to ever stagnate, we are always pushing to make those processes 1% better too! 

Opportunities for Growth

Our team has doubled in size over the past 5 years, and merit-based promotional opportunities are abundant if you're meeting or exceeding position performance metrics. We believe in growing and promoting our internal team first and foremost. In fact, 95% of our promotions are internal! All team members have a very clearly defined progression path, so you know exactly what is expected of you so you can put your career in your own hands. 

What’s more, you’re not expected to know it all - we believe in continually striving to be an expert in your subject matter of expertise, so while we will purposely challenge you to grow in your niche, we are a full-service agency that has experts in other departments that handle everything else - from link building, to social media, to web design, and web development. This is done so you can truly master your trade.
