Conversion Rate Experts (CRE) might be the place for you

CRE is the world’s leading agency for conversion rate optimization (CRO)—a term that it coined in 2007.

It has worked in over 80 different verticals, in 11 languages, and in 34 countries, helping to optimize the profits of some of the web’s most sophisticated companies, including Apple, Amazon, Facebook, Google, and Dropbox, as well as many blue-chip enterprises, financial institutions, media companies, and fast-growing startups.

CRE increases the profits of businesses scientifically by analyzing their websites’ visitors, creating optimized pages, and then A/B testing them to measure the increase in sales. It has generated billions in revenue for its clients and double- and triple-digit improvements are the norm.

At the bottom of this page, you’ll see a list of the roles that we hire for. First though, we’ll describe why you’ll love working for Conversion Rate Experts…

What you’ll get on this page

The top ten reasons our team members joined us (according to them)

1. Work from anywhere in the world you choose. We’re looking for the very best people, so we won’t be restricted by your location. We won’t expect you to visit clients either, so you can spend the whole day doing productive work—and the whole evening with your loved ones.

2. Collaborate with prestigious clients. Imagine what it will feel like to lead projects for companies like Apple, Amazon, Facebook, Google, Lloyds Banking Group, GQ, and Dropbox.

3. We pay well; our consultants achieve six figure incomes. We pay considerably more than most other agencies, because we know that one brilliant mind is worth a hundred mediocre ones.

4. Learn to be the best in the world. We’ll reveal every secret we’ve ever discovered about growing web businesses. You get to be entrepreneurial but without the risk.

5. Work with great colleagues. We’re continuously building the world’s number-one team of conversion rate experts. We also work with many of the world’s most respected marketers, so you’ll be in exciting and stimulating company.

6. Join our private mastermind group. Though we work remotely, we communicate frequently. As well as daily collaboration with your colleagues, you’ll have access to our mastermind group, which discusses the latest techniques we’ve developed and the results they’ve generated.

7. Develop personally and professionally. You’ll receive regular mentoring and training designed to optimize your performance, time, and income. You’ll also have the freedom to use the latest technology, as well as the budget to work with the best vendors in the world.

8. Full access to our private library of winning experiments. Our published case studies are just the tip of the iceberg. You’ll be able to fast-track your development by studying our private case studies, which describe in fine detail the winning controls that we’ve created in almost every industry vertical.

9. Extremely collaborative culture. Pretty much every newcomer expresses surprise at how helpful and sharing our team is. If you’d like to discover more about what it’s like to work for us, here’s an article about our culture. It’s the most revealing article we’ve ever published, and is well worth a read if you’re considering joining our team.

10. Visit our stunning offices. We hold regular get-togethers for our team members at our stunning UK offices in the spectacular eighteenth-century Hawkesyard Hall, amid picturesque formal gardens, canals and 200 acres of grounds. And it’s just 40 minutes from Birmingham International Airport. You can see it in the video below.

You’re statistically likely to be happy here

We’re a cheerful bunch—and that’s a fact.

We use software called TINYpulse to monitor and manage our company culture. Every month, TINYpulse asks each of us how happy we are, on a scale of 1 to 10. As the graph below shows, our team happiness score is way above average. (Plus, we expect that TINYpulse’s average is already high, because its clients are companies that focus on this kind of thing.)

You can work remotely—wherever is ideal for you

Our team members aren’t your usual consultants: they include successful entrepreneurs, an Amazon bestselling author, former Google and Apple employees, heads of agencies and Cambridge PhD scientists.

Interested, but not sure if you’re qualified?

We don’t all have formidable backgrounds, though. In fact, some of our highest-performing team members were “diamonds in the rough”—exceptional people working in unexceptional surroundings. The beauty of this work is that you’re only as good as your last A/B-test. If you can deliver results, nothing else matters.

So if you aren’t sure whether you’re suitable for the role, please complete our application form anyway. We have loads of experience recognizing conversion talent and aptitude and, at the very least, the application process will reveal the skills that you still need to acquire.

Our founders providing training.

You’ll get comprehensive training, and access to all the tools, techniques, and services we use to get things done quickly. You’ll also benefit from one-on-one mentoring, and access to the training materials our founders created for companies like Google, Moz, and Dell.

The roles for which we hire

Note that, for obvious reasons, if you work for one of our clients—or for a company actively considering using our services—we can’t consider you.

CRO consultant

Get paid to learn everything we know about growing businesses, work remotely, and achieve a six figure income.

Join our highly experienced team of experts who are responsible for providing one-on-one leadership to deliver amazing (and measurable) results for our clients.

Getting into Conversion Rate Experts is extremely difficult, and this role can be tough and challenging. We’re looking for smart, passionate, and ambitious web marketers with a proven track record of growing online businesses using conversion rate optimization (CRO).

You’ll use the following:

  • Your personal expertise.
  • Our proven CRE Methodology™.
  • Our internal mastermind group.

You’ll provide our clients with the following:

  • Strategic advice.
  • Ideas and content to measurably grow their businesses.
  • Unbiased technology recommendations.
  • Highly professional project management and leadership.

You should have expertise in most of the following:

  • Web analytics, SEO, PPC, affiliate marketing, and offline marketing.
  • Real-world sales and direct-response marketing.
  • Understanding the psychology of a website’s visitors.
  • Usability and design of highly converting webpages and sales funnels.
  • Carrying out split tests and multivariate tests on websites.
  • Project management, motivating teams, and mentoring others.

Most importantly, you must be obsessed with conversion and must already be getting impressive results.

Are you already consulting? We understand that you may already have clients or projects of your own, and that’s fine. Please mention this in your application.

Many of our consultants have the freedom of being self-employed—although this does mean you’ll manage your own taxes and home-office expenses. We can give you guidance on this.

Interested? Here’s what to do next

Complete our online application form, giving us evidence that you have the skills we’re looking for. It’s pretty rigorous, though we’re sure you’ll appreciate that we have to be this way, given our results-based approach to everything.

Research manager

Wanted: a brilliant technical mind from inside—or outside—the web industry.

Our Chairman and founder is a Cambridge PhD scientist, and several of our departments were created by a former aerospace engineer, so we know from experience that top-class scientists, engineers, and people from other technical disciplines really get this stuff.

We’re currently looking for one such technical mind to join our research department. Perhaps surprisingly, you don’t need to have experience working in the web industry. That’s because you’ll be working closely with some of the world’s best web marketers, creating processes and workflows that support—and sometimes automate—many of the activities they carry out.

What you’ll be doing—and why it’s an exciting opportunity

At Conversion Rate Experts, we don’t guess what’s wrong with a web business. We find out. This is the job of our world-beating research department. The key question to address is “Why aren’t visitors converting?” and we leave no stone unturned in finding the answer.

Typically, we seek to understand different visitor types and intentions, identify user-experience problems, and gather and understand visitors’ objections. We have developed a unique approach to doing so that’s unrivaled in the industry.

And this is where you’ll come in. We’re looking for a brilliant technical mind to join, and shortly lead, our research department. We’re growing at a rate of knots, so we’re looking for someone who has the potential to follow suit. The role will effectively be a hands-on crash course in entrepreneurship.

Our methodology is much more scientific and accountable than most web businesses. You must be systematic in your approach, and able to master sophisticated technical concepts and apply them in situations where the cost of failure is high. You’ll also be a great communicator, capable of making sense of complex data and presenting it in a constantly innovating and evolving manner. Most of all, you’ll be a problem solver, able to think logically in complex situations.

We guarantee to beat your existing salary. We firmly believe that one great mind is better than one hundred mediocre ones, so we’re happy to pay the best rates for the best people.

You’ll need to have the potential to quickly become great at the following things

  • Understanding the psychology of a website’s visitors.
  • Project management, motivating teams, and mentoring others.
  • Time management.
  • Communicating complex subjects in a way that’s easy to understand.
  • The psychology of persuasion.
  • Web marketing.
  • The Internet.
  • Advertising.

Front-end designer and developer

You’ll get to design and build pages for the world’s best companies

You’ll join our team of world-leading experts, responsible for delivering amazing (and measurable) results for our clients. You’ll take ideas, concepts and copy, and turn them into winning pages to A/B test against our clients’ existing versions. You’ll be helping to measurably improve pages that others think are unbeatable.

You’ll need to be the best in the world (or on your way to becoming the best)

We’re looking for the following:

  • An eye for detail. You’ll design pages to the high standards that enterprise-level clients demand.
  • CSS, HTML, and JavaScript skills. (Experience of implementing A/B tests is a bonus.)
  • Experience carrying out quality assurance and usability tests on your work.
  • Communication skills, so you’re comfortable speaking to clients (and fun to have on calls).
  • An appreciation and understanding of the power of copywriting and typography.
  • An obsession with the craft of creating and improving awesome stuff. (As a company, we focus a lot on systems and workflows, lean principles, XP, iterative design, clean code, etc.)

We guarantee to beat your existing salary. We firmly believe that one great mind is better than one hundred mediocre ones, so we’re happy to pay the best rates for the best people.

Please apply even if you don’t have all of the above—provided you’re keen to learn quickly.
