Manager, AI Search & Digital Authority

Overview

HELP CUSTOMERS FIND US, TRUST US, AND CHOOSE US

At iWOW, Western Pest Services, Waltham Pest Services, OPC Pest Services and IFC, we bring together a family of established pest management brands, each with its own history, local expertise, and strong customer relationships. As part of Rollins, we are focused on growing our businesses, delivering exceptional customer experiences, and finding better ways to serve the communities where we operate. 

How customers find businesses is changing, and we're looking for someone who is excited to help us stay ahead of it. 

The Opportunity 

When someone has a pest problem, they need to know who to call. Increasingly, they're not just searching Google. They're asking ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, and other AI platforms for recommendations. 

We want to make sure our brands are part of those conversations.

We're looking for a Manager, AI Search & Digital Authority to lead how our family of pest management brands shows up across traditional search, local search, and emerging AI platforms. 

You'll own the strategy and execution behind SEO, AI search (GEO/AEO), local search, content optimization, and digital authority. More importantly, you'll help translate these opportunities into greater visibility, stronger customer connections, and measurable business growth across our brands. 

This is a hands-on role for someone who enjoys figuring things out, testing new ideas, solving problems, and seeing their work make a difference. We aren't looking for someone who simply manages agency recommendations. We want someone who can roll up their sleeves, take ownership, and move things forward. 

AI search is still evolving, and we don't expect you to have all the answers. A strong SEO foundation, curiosity about emerging technology, and a willingness to learn and experiment are what matter most.

Responsibilities

What You'll Do

• Lead our organic and AI search strategy. Develop and execute a roadmap to improve visibility and attract qualified customers across our brands. This includes traditional Google search, Google AI Overviews, ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, Copilot, and other emerging platforms. 

• Get hands-on with SEO and website optimization. Improve website content, page titles, metadata, headings, FAQs, internal linking, and service and location pages. Conduct technical audits and partner with developers to address indexing, site structure, crawlability, structured data, and website performance. 

• Help us understand and win in AI search. Monitor how our brands and competitors appear in AI-generated recommendations. Identify opportunities to improve brand mentions, citations, and accuracy, and test new approaches to help our businesses become more visible and trusted across AI platforms. 

• Strengthen local search across our brands. Improve our presence across the markets and communities we serve. Manage and optimize Google Business Profiles, local directories, business listings, and other platforms to ensure customers can easily find accurate information about our services and locations. 

• Build digital authority and trust. Develop strategies to strengthen our online reputation through relevant content, third-party mentions, backlinks, citations, and digital PR. Partner with Operations and Customer Experience to support review generation and improve how our brands are represented online. 

• Connect marketing activity to business results. Identify opportunities to improve high-intent content around our services, treatment processes, pricing, guarantees, and local expertise. Monitor competitors, evaluate performance, and build reporting that connects search visibility to qualified leads, customer acquisition, and revenue. 

• Work across the iWOW organization. Collaborate with Marketing, Sales, Operations, and external agency partners to share insights, prioritize opportunities, and create consistent, scalable approaches that support our individual brands and overall business objectives. 

 What We Offer…

• Competitive base salary
• Comprehensive benefit package: a variety of options including medical plans, dental, vision, pet insurance, legal assistance, identity theft protection, critical illness, hospital indemnity, short-term disability, long-term disability, and additional life insurance for self/children/spouse.

• 401K with Company match
• Employee Stock Purchase Plan (ESPP) with discount
• Employee discounts, tuition reimbursement, continued education, and dependent scholarship awards.
