Latest search marketing jobs: SEO and PPC

Recorded on Jun 1, 2026

Professionals planning their next move in search marketing get a condensed market snapshot in Search Engine Land’s latest roundup: brands, agencies, and specialized providers are hiring across SEO, PPC, and adjacent digital marketing roles. The collection lists fresh postings and keeps older openings visible—useful for specialists who want to spot role trends rather than trawling a single job board.

The feed is supplied by SEOjobs.com. The pattern is clear: demand no longer focuses only on classic on-page work. Employers want strategists who connect organic visibility with paid media, content, and new search surfaces. Demand is also rising for experts who embed Answer Engine Optimization (AEO) and Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) into existing SEO programs.

Strategy, leadership, and agency work

At strategy level, DEPT® lists an Associate, SEO Strategy role—suited to growth brands that treat SEO as an invention and scaling lever, not ticket churn. AMN Healthcare seeks a Senior Lead for SEO and Answer Engine Optimization in Dallas, signaling that regulated sectors want coverage in classic SERPs and AI-assisted answer formats at once.

Boutique agency Break The Web recruits a Senior SEO Strategist remote in North America—aimed at experienced generalists who guide eCommerce and DTC brands, make progress measurable, and partner with in-house teams. Such profiles show agency work remains attractive for specialists who value breadth and fast methodology shifts.

GEO, content, and growth-oriented SEO

Stratabeat seeks an SEO, GEO & Content Strategist for B2B brands—a title that reflects how editorial quality, information architecture, and visibility in generative search contexts belong together. Blissbook advertises a Marketing Lead role bundling growth and execution in a bootstrapped SaaS setting, hinting that smaller software vendors often anchor SEO and performance in lean, entrepreneurial teams.

Solace lists a Growth SEO Associate for organic growth in complex healthcare—less glamorous keyword work than translating user intent, trust, and regulatory context into content and structure decisions. Compose-ly seeks an SEO Content Writer for property restoration and disaster recovery, showing how local SEO, service landing pages, and authoritative copy must align in niche markets.

What employers emphasize in postings

  • Strategic thinking and measurable impact, not isolated task lists
  • Experience with on-page, technical, and local SEO building blocks
  • Strong communication with marketing, product, and leadership teams
  • Openness to AI search, AEO, and GEO as extensions of classic SEO goals
  • Industry knowledge where YMYL or service topics require trust

PPC, director level, and the wider market

Beyond SEO roles, Search Engine Land also lists PPC and senior marketing positions, including director profiles at established performance agencies such as Wpromote. Senior careers still form at the intersection of earned, owned, and paid—new entrants should bring or build solid paid search, attribution, and cross-channel budget literacy.

Applicants benefit from a structured read of weekly roundups: cluster titles and scope (operational, strategic, content or growth hybrid); check location models (remote North America, Dallas on-site, hybrid expectations); read embedded vocabulary—AEO, GEO, local SEO, or CRO signals fit with your specialization or growth path.

For teams and agencies, these lists are early indicators. When multiple employers seek GEO or AEO skills at once, internal pressure grows to extend SEO roadmaps with metrics for AI citations, brand mentions, and structured data. Early hires secure talent in a market where experienced search marketers choose among in-house, boutique, and network agencies.

The roundup is not a substitute for individual application strategy, but it delivers a reliable snapshot: search marketing remains an active hiring field, roles are widening, and the line between SEO, content, and AI visibility blurs toward integrated profiles. Using these postings as a trend radar shows which competencies will likely become standard in coming quarters—whether you land at a growth agency, a brand, or a specialized publisher.

Application tactics for search marketing roles

When turning a weekly roundup into applications, filter beyond salary or remote status. Fit between expected seniority and your portfolio matters: associate roles need solid delivery in audits, keyword, and content workflows; senior and lead profiles expect roadmaps, stakeholder management, and credible reporting. A short case deck with before/after metrics, technical fixes, and an example of structured data or FAQ content beats generic CV lists. If AEO or GEO appears in the title, explain in the cover letter how you test visibility in AI answers—brand queries, citation monitoring, entity-clear content—rather than repeating buzzwords.
