What we do

At Civis Analytics, we bring objective, data-driven truth to organizational decision-making—from the boardroom to the world’s largest social causes.

This mission isn’t an aspiration: it’s something we see realized every day, and it brings purpose to everything we’re working on.

We combine a sophisticated SaaS product with our specialized data science consultancy to empower tens of thousands of active users to make millions of data-driven decisions every month. From joining disparate data sources and automating reporting, to building more elaborate models of targeted audiences and optimizing messages for them, organizations like the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, the City of Boston, and iHeart Radio trust Civis’s technology to make their most critical decisions.

Core to our product and consulting offerings is Civis Platform, which makes it easy to import, manage, transform, analyze, and report on data. Our customers love Civis Platform because it empowers them to focus on finding data-driven answers to their most critical questions—in other words, we empower them to run their business, rather than running a tech stack.

Due to the uncertainty of COVID-19, all Civis offices are closed and all employees are remote for the foreseeable future. This is being closely monitored as things change and it’s likely our offices will reopen. Because of this uncertainty, we want to ensure candidates are open to potentially relocating to one of our offices in the future, but a totally remote option is negotiable for this role.

What we are looking for

As our Senior Digital Marketing Web Lead, you will be responsible for all aspects of the Civis Analytics website and web presence, working across the Marketing team to drive targeted visitors to become contacts. You will own the web platform and ensure it’s efficient operation, you will work with design, content, and product marketing to effectively tell our story and maintain clear structure on our site, and you will attract targeted traffic to the content, including implementing a robust SEO strategy.

Underlying all of this, you will own and manage our holistic web measurement and optimization plan. You will ensure the right traffic is getting to the right pages, the user experience on those pages is effective, and users convert to contacts at the right point in their journey. We need someone who wakes up every morning focused on the data, moves quickly to keep the site fresh and telling our story with the latest customers and use cases, and is motivated to experiment.

The successful candidate will take ownership of the website and its success, and will work well as a member of the Marketing leadership team, supporting the goals and projects of the full team. We have ambitious goals for Marketing, and we need someone energetic and experienced, with strong communication and organizational skills, to manage our web growth.

  • Measure, monitor, and improve the overall user experience of the website
  • Conduct content audits to eliminate redundant, duplicate, or under-performing content
  • Lead the team in implementing strategies to grow visitors to the site, getting them to the pages we want them to reach in their journey, and ultimately converting them to contacts
  • Implement a robust SEO and SEM strategy that effectively drives awareness around targeted search terms and use cases, and ultimately increases targeted visitors
  • Collaborate with marketing leadership and company management to ensure that the website aligns with brand strategy and meets the organization’s standards
  • Ensure that the website is protected by enabling the appropriate security measures
  • Ensure full compliance on the website with all laws and regulations
  • Keep up-to-date with industry best practice and monitor competitor websites

Preferred Qualifications

  • 7-9+ years of work experience as a Website Manager or Web Lead, successfully managing and developing a website
  • Experience in a startup, where quickly capitalizing on opportunities is valuable, and ownership is a super-power
  • Ability to troubleshoot and resolve website issues in a fast-paced environment
  • A curious, data-driven mindset, looking to metrics to inform strategy, and to measure success
  • Above average time management skills (The right candidate for this role will thrive in an environment that offers a diversity of projects, but demands constant reprioritization and mult-tasking)

Minimum Qualifications

  • Highly proficient in HTML, CSS design, JavaScript, cross-browser and cross-platform compatibility
  • First-hand experience with web analytics and optimization tools (including Google Analytics) for running the site and reporting success
  • Experience having built, implemented, and optimized an SEO strategy
  • Excellent communication, team, and leadership skills. (This role will lead contracting resources as needed for now)
  • Ownership over processes and programs that will be utilized by the entire company - requires effective, quick, clear communication, and the ability to translate asks to real needs
  • US work authorization
