Job Summary

Payscale is looking for a Digital Marketing Manager who lives and breathes website performance. This is a hands-on role that owns how our marketing website attracts visitors, engages them once they arrive, and converts them into pipeline — through search strategy, performance monitoring, and AI-accelerated analysis.

You will be the primary owner of top-of-funnel web performance — turning search, traffic, and engagement data into insights, prioritizing the highest-impact optimizations, and using AI tools to move faster than manual analysis allows. You're equally comfortable auditing technical SEO, diagnosing why a page underperforms for a specific traffic source or persona, and using AI to accelerate both.

This is a growth-oriented web performance role for someone who wants to own outcomes across the full attract-engage-convert arc.

## What You'll Do

- Attract — Search & Visibility
- Own on-page and technical SEO strategy across payscale.com http://payscale.com: keyword strategy, content structure, internal linking, site health
- Own our approach to AEO — how Payscale content shows up in AI-driven answer engines and adapt strategy as search behavior evolves
- Track rankings, organic traffic, and share of voice against competitors; surface clear, actionable insights regularly
- Partner with content, product marketing, and web teams so new pages are built with search visibility in mind from day one

Engage & Convert — Site-Wide Performance & CRO

- Monitor the performance of key landing pages across the site regulalrly, segmented by traffic source, persona, and campaign
- Identify underperforming pages and diagnose the cause — messaging mismatch, wrong audience fit, friction, or technical issue
- Own a CRO testing roadmap, including hypothesis creation, A/B and multivariate testing, statistical analysis, and rollout of winning variants
- Work directly in Webflow to implement data-driven tests, updates, and optimizations
- Continuously optimize conversion paths across the site, contextualized by campaign, offer, channel, and page type

Measurement, Reporting & AI-Accelerated Analysis

- Own web analytics and reporting for site-wide performance (GA4 + GTM)
- Build and maintain dashboards tracking traffic, engagement, and conversion across key pages and journeys, sitewide
- Use AI tools to accelerate analysis, surface insights, and speed up reporting
- Diagnose funnel drop-off using both quantitative data (GA4) and qualitative tools (heatmaps, session recordings)
- Deliver consistent reporting and recommendations to marketing leadership

Cross-functional Collaboration

- Partner closely with Demand Gen, Content, Product Marketing, and Marketing Operations to translate campaign and content needs into search-visible, high-performing web experiences
- Help drive a more data-driven, AI-assisted way of working across the web and marketing teams

## What We're Looking For

- 4-6 years of experience in SEO, CRO, web analytics, or growth marketing, with a proven track record of improving organic and on-page performance
- Strong command of SEO tooling and technical fundamentals (Google Search Console, GA4, Ahrefs/Semrush or similar)
- Strong GA4 and GTM fluency — comfortable owning tagging, event tracking, and reporting
- Demonstrated ability to use AI tools (like Claude or similar) to accelerate analysis and reporting — not just familiarity, but active use in your current workflow
- Experience analyzing and optimizing site performance by traffic source, persona, or segment
- Comfortable making updates and implementing tests in Webflow or similar CMS platforms as well as testing solutions like Webflow Optimize, VWO, Optimizely etc.
- Hands-on experience running A/B tests, from hypothesis through statistical analysis to implementation; Webflow Optimize experience is a plus
- Experience with session recording and heatmapping tools
- Salesforce, Marketo, Tableau experience is highly preferred (especially understanding how forms, campaigns, and objects integrate with the website)
- B2B SaaS experience is highly preferred

Location

Payscale has an employee centric remote-first model that provides you the flexibility to do your best work in a space that supports you, while also finding time to collaborate in person for the moments that matter.

- High-Speed Internet - A stable broadband or fiber connection (satellite is highly discouraged) with a minimum speed of 100 Mbps in a dedicated workspace that has a reliable Wi-Fi signal.
- Device for Multifactor Authentication (MFA/2FA) - smartphone, tablet, etc.

When it matters (usually no more than a few times a year) we take the time to gather for in-person events.

Payscale has employees across the US, Canada, UK, The Philippines and Romania however we are currently unable to hire in the Quebec Province, Northern Ireland, and Hawaii.
