What are the responsibilities and job description for the Digital Marketing Strategist - SEO (Search Engine Optimization) position at Beacon Technologies?
Beacon has an immediate opening for an experienced Digital Marketing Strategist. This role is ideal for a strategic, data-driven marketer with deep SEO expertise and a strong understanding of analytics. Strategists work directly with small- to mid-sized client accounts to understand business objectives, evaluate technical and marketing opportunities, and develop and execute customized digital marketing strategies across SEO, generative search, content, analytics, and development. The goal of this work is to increase visibility, attract qualified traffic, and drive measurable ROI for clients.
Beacon is specifically seeking candidates with experience in both SEO (Search Engine Optimization) and GEO (Generative Engine Optimization) located in the Triad (Greensboro, Winston-Salem, High Point) or Wilmington, NC. Exceptional candidates outside these areas may be considered; however, relocation assistance is not available.

For over 25 years, Beacon has been a nationally recognized, full-service web solutions firm offering web design, digital marketing, and hosting services. We primarily serve higher education, multifamily residential, and retail/wholesale clients across the United States.

Beacon is a tight-knit team of technical, creative, and marketing professionals who enjoy working together to deliver meaningful results for our customers. We place a strong emphasis on collaboration, craftsmanship, and helping organizations use technology effectively to grow their businesses.
Since 1998, Beacon has intentionally built a work environment that supports both professional growth and work-life balance. We offer a 50/50 hybrid work model, flexible schedules, a casual work environment, health club membership, profit-sharing bonuses, 100% employer-paid insurance (health, dental, vision), a 401(k) with a generous company match, ample PTO, and 10 paid holidays, including a birthday holiday. We also host regular employee meetings and monthly social events to keep everyone connected and informed. Community involvement is a core value at Beacon through our BeaconCares initiative. Our team supports hunger relief efforts, holiday giving programs, United Way fundraising, and Beacon’s Weaving Hope mission to build preschools in Rwanda. In addition to competitive compensation, Beacon offers educational and travel opportunities to support continued learning and growth.
