Website, Email & Campaigns Website strategy, development, and CMS optimization to support SEO/GEO, conversion rates, and multi-location needs. Email marketing programs — nurture, retention, and reactivation — with strong segmentation. Integrated campaigns, developed with the team on creative and messaging. Attribution & Reporting A marketing attribution system connecting CRM, call tracking, and all digital channels for accurate lead-source and ROI visibility. Performance reporting to leadership on channel performance, spend efficiency, and lead flow.

Evaluation and adoption of AI tools, platform updates, and new technology as search evolves Requirements What You Bring 6+ years in digital marketing, including 3+ years leading paid media, SEO, and analytics. 2+ years of client-side (in-house) experience preferred — home services experience is a plus. Deep hands-on command of Google Ads, LSAs, SEO/GEO tools, Google Analytics, Tag Manager, keyword strategy, bid management, performance reporting, and attribution. A track record of scaling digital channels, proving ROI, and leading cross-functional teams in multi-location or service-based businesses. Insatiable curiosity about algorithm changes, emerging platforms, and AI-powered search. An owner's mentality — you want to own results, not just manage vendors. Greater Lafayette area candidates strongly preferred — this is a primarily in-office role at our Lafayette home office. Candidates in our other Louisiana markets (Baton Rouge, New Orleans, Lake Charles, Crowley) are also encouraged to apply.
