About the Role

, GEO (Generative Engine Optimization) , and AIO (AI Optimization) . This role is responsible for driving qualified organic traffic and lead generation, leading a cross-functional team, and ensuring our digital presence performs well not just on Google, but across AI-driven search and answer surfaces (ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews, Gemini, etc.).
The ideal candidate is a hands-on strategist and executor who can audit, plan, and drive execution while also mentoring a team of SEO specialists, content writers, and designers.

Strategy & Planning
● Develop and own the end-to-end SEO/AEO/GEO/AIO strategy aligned with business and lead-generation goals.
● Own performance and growth strategy across Organic Search, Social, Referral, and LLM/AI-driven traffic channels — not SEO in isolation.

● Manage on-page SEO: meta data, internal linking, content optimization, header structure, and keyword mapping.

● Set individual and team goals, review performance, and build SEO/content capability within the team.
