Careers

Work because you love to

Simantelites are passionate about what we do because we’re good at it, and we’re good at it because we’re passionate about it. We know you are, too.

A job that’s study hall and recess

We’re a fast-paced, team-centered, client-focused marketing agency. But we can also slow down, look inward and practice self-care. Sound like the balance you’re looking for? (Plus, with hybrid, work-from-home and remote options, we don’t ever get “the Mondays.”)

OPEN POSITIONS

Check below if there’s a fit — and still reach out if there’s not.

On the hunt for new Simantelites, we’re after a combination of skills — and a desire to use those skills to give our clients exactly what they’re looking for.

Benefits and
more benefits

Standard and more healthcare coverage the day you start and a 401(k) company match program are just a few things Simantelites enjoy (and more below!).

Flexible Schedule

Hybrid local hours. Customizable workdays. Half-day Fridays. Because you don’t have to be in from 9 to 5 to do great work.

Personal Time

We know life happens. That’s why we offer up to two hours of “personal time” on days when you need it, and when flexible scheduling doesn’t work.

Vacation Days

You get paid time off. You get 12+ holidays. You get December 24th until New Year’s Day. Go ahead and enjoy the break.

Parental Leave

Paid time off for both parents, birth or adoption. Every parenting journey is unique, so you deserve to take the time.

Work From Home and Remote

Don’t live in Peoria? Not all our positions require you to be local. We have WFH options and remote team members in 23 states!

Bonus Programs

From loyalty, to leadership, to “just because”, we’ve got lots of bonuses and everyone’s eligible for something.

Our Values

01 UNDERSTANDING

‘‘ Take a moment to ask why do you do what you do? How do you do what you do? The next time you are making connections across the team, you’ll have more knowledge.’’

02 CONTRIBUTION

‘‘ Contribution is you giving your own thought, your own idea, to solve a problem. ’’

03 GROWTH

‘‘ Growth is understanding the challenges that are ahead of you and the things that you might not be capable of and then figuring out how to then reach that new level.’’

04 COLLABORATION

‘‘Collaboration comes from a place of humility, because in order to collaborate, your outcome is going to be better with multiple inputs instead of just the one.’’

05 ACCOUNTABILITY & FLEXIBILITY

‘‘Accountability in the workplace isn't about just owning your mistakes, it’s about owning your job. We're not just completing tasks –– we’re focused on keeping our clients happy and being experts in our roles as much as possible.’’

People Make the Place

There’s lots to love about where we work — team spirit, fun events, culture and great offices (our 50+ remotes visit all the time). But when it comes down to it, Simantel is about Simantelites.

Diversity, Equity & Inclusion

We strive for an environment that recognizes each person’s value, champions fairness and encourages conversations that don’t just address differences, but celebrate them.

Midwest HQ

Simantel offices have called Peoria, IL, home for over 40 years. And not just because of local charm, BTW. Whether you work here or play here, the River City has something for you.
