Job Description
The Manager, Web Content and SEO owns the editorial quality and search performance of content published to the company’s marketing and commercial web properties. This is a hands‑on leadership role: the Manager edits and optimizes web content directly, sets the standards others write to, and leads a small team of content and search specialists.
The role also leads the enterprise search and discoverability strategy - paid search, organic search, answer engine optimization, and generative engine optimization – in collaboration with our Digital Commerce team and is accountable for its day-to‑day results, including the management of paid search spend against targets.
Responsibilities- Owns execution of integrated marketing programs across customer engagement, sales enablement, demand generation, and market awareness
- Implements marketing plans and manages associated activities, timelines, and deliverables
- Develops and executes campaigns in collaboration with cross functional partners and marketing leadership
- Interprets customer, sales, and performance data to identify opportunities and optimize programs
- Manages project workflows, agencies, and internal resources to ensure on time and on budget delivery
- Tracks results, communicates performance, and shares best practices and recommendations
- Coaches and supports team members; reinforces execution discipline and accountability
- Edit content destined for marketing and commercial web pages for clarity, accuracy, brand voice, and scannability.
- Optimize content for web readability: heading hierarchy, chunking, sentence and paragraph length, link and media use, reading level, and accessibility.
- Maintain and enforce the web editorial style guide, writing standards, and metadata requirements across every team that publishes.
- Audit published content on a defined cadence and drive refresh, consolidation, and retirement decisions based on performance and accuracy.
- Execute the enterprise search strategy across organic search (SEO), answer engine optimization (AEO), and generative engine optimization (GEO) for marketing‑owned properties.
- Lead keyword, topic, and intent research.
- Drive on‑page optimization – titles, metadata, heading structure, internal linking, canonical rules, and structured data and schema markup – with our technical partners within the Digital Commerce team.
- Structure content so it can be surfaced and cited by AI assistants and answer engines: clear claims, consistent entity usage, credible sourcing, and question‑led formats.
- Monitor rankings, organic traffic, visibility, and citation across traditional and AI‑driven surfaces; report results and translate them into a prioritized action list.
- Partner with the Digital Commerce team on applying optimization practices to product detail pages, on‑site search results, and product hierarchy, where those systems sit outside marketing.
- Run the paid search program day to day – account and campaign structure, keyword and audience targeting, ad copy, bidding approach, testing, and landing page alignment – across Google Ads and other search platforms.
- Manage budget pacing and bid strategy against the budget and performance targets; forecast spend and surface variances early.
- Report on paid performance (e.g. cost per click, cost per lead or acquisition, conversion rate, and return on ad spend) and recommend reallocation across campaigns, categories, and business units.
- Operate paid and organic as a single search program: use paid data to inform content and organic priorities, and use organic coverage to inform where spend is and is not warranted.
- Own the day‑to‑day application of the…
