Overview
We are seeking a Senior Manager to help lead the design and delivery of generative engine optimization and digital ecosystem transformation programs. This role sits directly below the Managing Director / Partner and will be responsible for translating strategic vision into actionable programs that modernize how our clients prepare, structure, and distribute content and optimize technology to improve AI Search and emerging AI-driven ecosystems.
As customer discovery rapidly shifts from traditional search engines to AI-driven experiences, conversational interfaces, and generative platforms, organizations must rethink how their brands are surfaced, interpreted, and recommended. This GEO Leader will play a critical role in helping clients navigate this transformation by leading key workstreams across generative search optimization, content and entity strategy, technical SEO alignment, and AI visibility measurement.
You will lead cross-functional efforts spanning SEO, content, PR, analytics, and development to drive scalable improvements in how brands appear within LLM-powered environments such as ChatGPT and Perplexity. The ideal candidate combines deep expertise in organic search, technical optimization, and content strategy with a strong understanding of how AI systems evaluate, cite, and recommend information. This role requires both strategic thinking and hands-on execution to improve brand authority, increase share of voice in generative results, and establish repeatable frameworks for optimizing performance in an evolving AI-first discovery landscape.
