• Manage relationships with external SEO agencies and vendors, ensuring alignment with the company’s objectives.

• Mentor and train SEO team members, fostering a culture of continuous development and innovation within the department.

• Create and deliver training sessions and materials to elevate SEO awareness and best practices across the organization.
