About Compound Growth Marketing (CGM)

Compound Growth Marketing (CGM) is a marketing consultancy built to help ambitious B2B SaaS and technology companies scale to $100M+ in revenue by building sustainable, repeatable demand generation systems.

We help clients grow by designing and optimizing a Predictable Demand System™, focused on three compounding drivers of growth:

• Deal Volume
• Deal Process
• Actionable Insights

Our work spans go-to-market strategy, paid acquisition, demand capture (SEO & AI-optimized content), funnel automation, and advanced analytics. We partner closely with our clients' revenue, marketing, and operations teams to drive measurable outcomes — not just activity.

Client demand for organic and AI-search visibility (AEO/GEO) is accelerating faster than almost any other channel we run. We're building out the SEO practice to meet that demand with a standardized, scalable delivery model, and we're hiring an SEO Manager to help lead it.

The SEO Manager owns SEO and AI-search-visibility (AEO/GEO) strategy for a portfolio of 6–12 B2B client accounts, and owns the output of the analysts who execute against that strategy.

You report to the Head of SEO and work alongside peer Managers within the practice. This is a working-manager role: you lead the work directly — strategy, planning, quality bar — and, as the practice grows, lead a small team of analysts who execute against your plan. We're talking hands-on ownership of both the strategy and the people delivering it, with people-management advancement pathing that grows over time.

This is an ideal role for someone who:

• Is genuinely excited about where SEO is headed as LLMs reshape search, and already treats AI visibility as essential SEO work rather than an emerging trend
• Sees SEO in B2B as equal parts technical execution and content strategy, and doesn't need convincing that the technical fundamentals matter just as much as knowing what content will actually earn visibility with the target buyer
• Gets personal joy from leading others and helping them grow, with a desire to do the hard work of building a team over time
• Comfortable operating as the subject-matter expert behind the scenes, briefing the Account Manager so they can speak to strategy and results with confidence

• Own SEO and AEO strategy for your portfolio, translating performance data into a prioritized plan for analysts to execute, and adjusting when things change
• Maintain a forward view of each account's work three to six months out, not just the current sprint
• Partner with Project Managers to scope planned work against client budgets and team capacity
• Own content strategy for your portfolio: direct topics, structure, and optimization guidance for analysts to execute

• Own the output of your analyst team: every audit, brief, technical recommendation, or report that reaches a client reflects your standard and your accountability
• Coach and develop your analysts, building their skill and judgment so they need less direct oversight over time
• Take a role in hiring, performance reviews, and promotion or termination decisions for your team, in partnership with the Head of SEO

• Own AI-search-visibility strategy for your portfolio — monitoring how clients show up across ChatGPT, Perplexity, AI Overviews, and comparable surfaces
• Help define how CGM benchmarks and measures AEO performance for clients, including which tools and metrics actually indicate progress in a space that hasn't standardized on either yet
• Bring hard evidence to AEO recommendations — what changed, what moved, and why
• Track how AI search surfaces are evolving and translate that into concrete guidance for clients and…
