Translate client business goals into actionable content strategies across web, social, and marketing platforms to support user engagement and the evolving digital trends. - Develop and Optimize SEO Strategy
Lead the development of holistic SEO strategies—integrating keyword research, technical SEO insights, content optimization, and performance tracking to drive organic visibility and engagement. - Leverage AI and Emerging Tech
Identify and guide the use of AI-driven content applications such as generative tools, personalization engines, and conversational interfaces—with a critical understanding of when and how they add value. - Lead Insights and Analysis
Conduct audits and performance analyses to surface content gaps, user friction, and strategic opportunities—translating data into action. - Mentor and Advise

Preferred Tools:
- Google Workspace & Microsoft Office
