At Cision, we believe in empowering every individual to make an impact. Join our global team and thrive in an environment that champions curiosity, collaboration, and innovation. We are looking for a Senior SEO Manager to join our Growth Marketing team in the UK.

This role focuses on content-first SEO for B2B SaaS brands like Brandwatch, Cision, and Trajaan, which have extensive, multilingual websites. You will bridge the gap between audience search intent and our published content by planning new content, optimizing existing assets, and collaborating across departments. This position leverages AI extensively within the workflow and reports to the SEO/GEO Lead.

Key Responsibilities

• Partner with Design and the web team on page structure and UX decisions impacting visibility.
• Coordinate with Field Marketing teams to align local content strategies with the overarching plan.
• Manage internal linking strategies across all websites.
• Track SEO performance, analyze data, and translate insights into actionable next steps.
• Contribute to shaping the team's SEO and GEO content strategy, particularly as AI-driven search evolves.
• Build relationships across the organization to drive SEO recommendations and initiatives.

Requirements

• Minimum of five years of experience in SEO, with a strong focus on content strategy and on-page optimization.
• Proven experience managing large, content-heavy websites.
• Demonstrated success working with content and marketing teams, including shaping editorial plans, creating briefs, and influencing content publication.
• Strong analytical skills, with proficiency in Google Search Console and other analytics platforms.
• Excellent communication skills, with the ability to clearly explain SEO concepts to non-SEO stakeholders (writers, designers, product marketers, leadership).
• Self-motivated with the ability to manage priorities independently.
• Comfortable working with AI tools within content workflows.
• Fluent in English, both written and spoken.
• Familiarity with SEO platforms such as Ahrefs.
• Must be based in the UK for this onsite role.
