The Role
We're looking for an experienced Search Lead to join our growing marketing team. You'll own the strategy and day-to-day execution of our paid search program, translating high-level growth goals into world-class campaigns that drive qualified leads and new members.

You'll also be a hands-on mentor, training and coaching teammates so the whole team executes flawlessly.
If you're a paid search expert who thrives on turning data into decisions and enjoys being the go-to voice on search strategy, we'd love to meet you!
