The Digital Marketing Manager will oversee marketing initiatives across a variety of B2B and B2C clients while collaborating closely with internal strategists, designers, developers, content creators, performance specialists, and the Delivery team to ensure work is executed effectively.

This role requires someone who understands how digital channels work together — including websites, social media, email marketing, automation, analytics, content strategy, lead generation, SEO fundamentals, AI visibility concepts, and performance marketing principles.

Driving project accountability by keeping teams aligned on expectations
Ensuring overall campaign quality and strategic alignment across all marketing initiatives
Supporting healthy, seamless collaboration and communication across all departments
The ideal candidate leads by influence, is capable of having conversations with stakeholders professionally, and actively fosters a positive, high-performing team environment.
Performance & Optimization
The Digital Marketing Manager must have a strong performance mindset and understand how marketing activity connects to measurable business outcomes.
This role should be comfortable discussing KPIs, campaign performance, conversion strategy, attribution, and growth opportunities with clients while collaborating closely with internal performance specialists on channel execution and optimization strategies.
The Digital Marketing Manager will work alongside specialists focused on areas such as:
SEO
AI Visibility & Readiness
AEO (Answer Engine Optimization)
Paid media and performance advertising
