• Partner with SEO, analytics, product, and data science teams to strength discoverability across search engines, AI search experiences, and emerging LLM-environments.
• Establish, manage, translate, and share performance insights for a continuous improvement approach to content supply chain workflows, content reuse, time-to-publish, and increase content effectiveness and business impact.

How you'll collaborate with others:

• Partner closely with the Senior Manager, Content Strategy & Experience to align execution with editorial priorities and customer journey objectives.
• Work cross-functionally with Product, Technology, Data Science, SEO, Content Orchestration, and Performance Marketing teams to define and implement scalable content infrastructure enhancements.
• Support executive reporting on performance insights, automation impact metrics, and revenue-aligned narratives.

Projects you'll take ownership of:

• Intelligent content/AI-enabled content supply chain framework.
• Discoverability and performance enhancements focusing on increasing organic visibility and measurable contribution to direct bookings and engagement goals.
• Partner with technology teams, translating business needs and strategy to technology development and road mapping.
• Translate performance data from across the content supply chain into operational and strategic improvements.

You have these minimum qualifications:

• Experience with content and asset management systems.
• Experience with editorial analytics tools, cross-platform and channel analytics, and other performance measurement technology (Adobe, Chartbeat).
