• Collaborate with the Search Marketing Manager to craft and optimize site content for search engines (SEO), boosting organic traffic with strategies like on‑page SEO, link building and keyword research.
• Conduct ongoing keyword research, competitor analysis and implement SEO best practices to improve search rankings and organic traffic.
• Conduct research and gather essential information, leveraging internal resources and external sources as necessary to inform content copy.
• Play a key role in developing, executing and refining the content marketing strategy to support business objectives, lead generation and customer retention.

• Coordinate the review and approval of all copy content through senior marketing and communications leadership, project teams and internal legal resources.
• Publish content to the appropriate channels, including web, email and social media. Analyze content performance using analytics tools, generate actionable insights and optimize future content based on data to maximize ROI.
• Manage multiple projects simultaneously, ensuring deadlines are met and stakeholders are kept informed.
• Establish and maintain a current and archived content management library of resources, ensuring accessibility and organization of content assets for seamless retrieval and utilization.
• Maintain a working knowledge of DDAZ product offerings, as well as health and wellness industry trends and news.
• Uphold branding and style guidelines in all DDAZ communications to remain compliant with Delta Dental Plans Association standards.
