Description

Are you an experienced digital marketer with enterprise level SEO experience that wakes up in the morning thinking about keywords, links and algorithms? Does your online marketing experience include working with Pandas and Penguins (hint: not the type that you would find at the zoo)? Does your preferred marketing vernacular include three letter acronyms like SEO, CTR, RPS, CPA & ROI? Do you spend most of your day creating new ways of identifying market trends and tapping into relevant keywords in a searcher’s mind? If so, we may have the perfect role for you.

Ziff Davis is on the hunt for a data driven, results-oriented SEO expert who wants to take on the challenge of scaling our search engine optimization efforts and leading us to new heights across our network of digital media assets.

In this role you will work with our small, but very experienced SEO team and will be responsible for executing, managing & scaling our SEO efforts across the major search engines.

You will work directly with our Director of SEO to ensure that our network is fully optimized and maximizing ROI.

Some of the core activities you will be helping us with include: keyword research, competitor analysis, SEO site architecture, content optimization, link building, syndication, analytics support and performance tracking. You will also spend time working with other teams across multiple properties to ensure that best practices are being followed at all times and that top performing activities are shared and migrated across the Ziff Davis network.

Finally, as part of this role you will be expected to have a strong background in excel and analytics that you will use to help us better research, deploy, measure and optimize internal performance across the network. This will require you to work collaboratively with other teams and to use your existing skills to deliver data-driven marketing insights and business intelligence in a timely fashion.

When applying for this role, it would be ideal to provide examples of enterprise level sites you have worked on, along with outlining some of the key performance results that were achieved based on your optimization efforts. Key candidates should also have experience working in highly competitive markets and should be able to demonstrate a clear and proven SEO process based on many years of learning and hands on experience.

Qualifications:
  • Minimum of 5 years of prior SEO experience, ideally in an enterprise level capacity
  • Proactive – results-focused, initiative-taker, creative thinker and dynamic team player
  • Strong analytics background with expert knowledge of Microsoft Excel & web analytics tools
  • Strong verbal and written communication skills
  • Proven success working in an entrepreneurial, high growth and rapidly changing environment
  • Comfortable working on multiple projects and meeting tight timelines
  • Comfortable working on projects with remote teams
  • Expert in enterprise level link building strategy and deployment
  • Business development & partner marketing experience also preferred
  • Strong understanding of enterprise level content management systems and delivery networks
  • Expert knowledge of both past and present SEO best practices, resources and industry tools
  • Strong knowledge of PPC, social media & related digital channels with impact on SEO
  • Experience with conversion rate optimization, A/B & multivariate testing platforms
  • Background in online user behaviour, engagement triggers and UX optimization
  • Background with internet programming languages such as: HTML, HTML5, CSS, XML, PHP, ASP, AJAX, JavaScript & related technologies.
  • Creative, open minded, willingness to learn and experiment, while not afraid to voice opinions
  • Experience working with editorial teams and online media publishers preferred
  • Undergraduate degree in business, marketing, computer science or related field.
