Job description

About The Role:

We're looking for a hands‑on Manager, AI Visibility & Content Discoverability to own how CBRE is found, trusted, and surfaced accurately across generative AI platforms and conversational search. This role centers on AI-driven discoverability, built on the traditional SEO foundations, clean architecture, structured data, authoritative content, that both search engines and AI systems rely on.

You will work closely with Digital Marketing, Digital & Technology (D&T), and business segment teams across a global, matrixed organization, translating strategy into measurable outcomes and making complex search performance data accessible and actionable for stakeholders at every level. This is an individual contributor role with high ownership. You will bring initiatives to life, improve them over time, and exercise good judgment about what is working and what could be better, spotting opportunities and acting on them.

What You'll Do:

AI Search and Generative Engine Optimization

• Win CBRE citations and answer inclusion across AI platforms like ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Claude, and Google AI Overviews, growing how often we surface as the trusted source when buyers ask AI about commercial real estate.
• Track where CBRE appears across these platforms, monitor citation share against our competitive set, find the gaps, and act on them with content and production teams.
• Execute CBRE's playbooks for AI-powered search, so our brand is represented accurately and authoritatively.
• Stay ahead of developments in Generative Engine Optimization (GEO), Answer Engine Optimization (AEO), and AI-driven discovery, bringing forward specific, grounded recommendations as the space evolves.

Automation and Tooling

• Identify where AI and automation can take over the manual layer of search work, monitoring, content optimization, metadata enrichment, and reporting, and translate those needs into clear requirements for our Martech, D&T, and agency partner to build.
• Run these workflows day to day, turning what they surface into faster fixes and optimizations.
• Get full value from CBRE's AI visibility and SEO tool stack, and bring a clear point of view on where automation should extend it next.

Technical Foundation

• Keep CBRE's US properties technically sound so both search engines and AI systems can find, read, and cite them, covering crawlability, schema markup, structured data, Core Web Vitals, and hreflang, in direct partnership with D&T.
• Run regular audits across site architecture, indexation, and page speed. Work with our agency partner to turn findings into clear engineering briefs and see fixes through to completion.
• Grow measurable organic visibility through keyword strategy, on-page optimization, and content gap analysis that reinforce the topical authority AI models recognize.

Measurement and Insight

• Own a single view of CBRE's visibility across AI and traditional search, citation share, share of voice, and organic performance, and use it to show what is working and where to move next.
• Design experiments that lift AI citations and organic performance, and recommend new metrics as search behavior shifts.
• Translate performance data into clear recommendations that guide content, technical, and business decisions.

Collaboration, Frameworks, and Enablement

• Set the standards and frameworks that keep CBRE's AI presence coherent as regional teams come online, so activity across markets reinforces one brand rather than pulling in different directions.
• Contribute to internal projects including site migrations, content audits, new market launches, and platform rollouts.
