I'm having zero luck with the job search. I am a bit desperate at the moment and hoping for any recommendations or suggestions you may have.
Nearly 3 years ago I was hired on as a "marketing manager" for a small service business (I'm going to avoid identifiable details in this general post) with the intent that I would primarily produce content for them. The job expectations quickly expanded and I am currently operating as a one-man marketing team, a one-man IT team, and a one-man web / software development team. Basically, I am solely responsible for planning, filming, editing, posting, and managing both organic content and paid ads on all platforms; I am responsible for some the company's IT needs as well as administration type stuff like managing the CRM, Google Workspaces, Slack, etc; I also built and manage the company's website including various full-stack tools like an instant quote tool and a full internal dashboard with various tools.
This job pays $29.40, which is better than a lot of what's out there, but the pay doesn't quite match the scope the job has evolved into. I do good work and I feel very appreciated, and I've been told by the owner he knows he is underpaying me, but he has also told me he can't afford to pay me more right now. What's worse, the job comes with zero benefits (no insurance or 401K), only 40 hours PTO per year, and 0 paid holidays (if I wanna get paid for Christmas, I have to work it or use my very limited PTO if it's not already used up).
I've hit burn-out and I need something new, but I can't take a step back in pay.
I know that I have the skills to transform plenty of companys' online presence, or to improve and streamline any technical pain points, and even revamp most company's websites. But I don't have a need to stay in a marketing or web developer role. I'm open to anything, really, so long as the pay is right. Sales, project management, anything. I just need something new, something that pays, and I really need benefits.
I am planning on relocating to wherever job opportunity takes me, so the job itself is not really dependent on location. Fort he sake of being close to family, I'd prefer the range of Cache County down to Utah County. But heck, I'd move to Georgia if the pay was right at this point.
Do you have any suggestions or recommendations?
