Build, mentor, and scale a high-performing organic growth organization alongside an elite agency network.
Hold direct P&L accountability for growth forecasting, capital allocation, and ROI metrics ranging from AI answer-engine market share down to CAC and LTV.

Requirements

10+ years of experience in organic search/SEO, featuring progressively senior ownership of strategy and measurable business outcomes, including hands-on experience before leadership.
5+ years of people leadership experience involving building, developing, and growing a team.
8+ years of deep, experimentation-grounded expertise in technical SEO and AI-native discovery across search engines, AI Overviews, answer engines, and LLM ecosystems (AEO).
Proven proficiency in owning or partnering on CRO programs that drive measurable conversion and revenue growth.
Comfort operating in a rapidly evolving landscape where best practices are still emerging.
Experience leveraging automation, AI, and programmatic approaches to scale content creation while maintaining quality.
Experience building and scaling a GTM strategy around organic channels, backed by data-driven business cases.
Strong technical fluency in site architecture, structured data, and Core Web Vitals to partner effectively with Engineering and Product.
Experience evaluating and selecting SEO, AEO, or CRO tooling and vendors at scale.

Nice to Have

Experience building an AEO measurement approach or strategy from the ground up.
Familiarity with modern web technologies and search infrastructure, including JavaScript rendering, CMS architectures, APIs, schema markup, server-side rendering, edge rendering, and content delivery strategies.
A visible point of view in the SEO/AEO/CRO space through speaking, writing, or industry community involvement.
