What are the responsibilities and job description for the Organic Department Manager position at Direct Online Marketing?
About Direct Online Marketing (DOM)
Since our foundation in 2006, DOM has helped businesses grow through data-driven digital marketing campaigns. We emphasize a disciplined, transparent approach — and we won’t be out-communicated.
If you want to experience what it's like to work at a full-service digital marketing agency that does things a little differently than you’ve experienced in the past, we want to meet you!
As the Organic Department Manager, you’ll lead the strategic vision, processes, and performance of DOM’s organic marketing services. You will guide a team of digital marketing professionals, enhance our service offerings, and ensure that client campaigns deliver meaningful, measurable results. You’re energized by solving complex problems, improving workflows, elevating team capabilities, and helping clients achieve long-term growth.
What You’ll Do
Our clients rely on DOM to drive organic visibility, revenue growth, and long-term digital performance. As the Organic Department Manager, you will own both the day-to-day operations and the strategic direction of the department.
Your Work Will Include
Department Leadership & Strategy
You bring advanced SEO expertise, strong leadership experience, and a track record of driving results for clients across various industries and business models. You’re energized by improving systems, staying up to date on digital marketing and AI search trends, growing team members, and delivering strategic impact.
Here’s What We’re Looking For
Experience & Expertise
At a mid-sized agency like DOM, you can move the needle more than at a larger agency. Plus, you get to be part of a team of talented, hard-working individuals. We take our ‘No Jerks’ policy seriously here.
We’re proud to offer a hybrid work schedule that allows you to work from home four days a week, while still fostering in-person collaboration every Thursday. It’s the best of both worlds—work from home while enjoying the connection and creativity that come with in-person teamwork.
DOM is in the top 3% of all Google partner agencies worldwide, helping our clients grow their businesses through digital advertising, search engine optimization, creative services, analytics, and a full suite of digital marketing services. Our agency is certified by Microsoft and Semrush with dozens of 5-star reviews on Clutch, G2 and Google.
We’re a stable and growing leader delivering excellent results to our clients who say things like:
We offer a competitive benefits package, including health, dental, and vision insurance; short-term disability coverage; a 401(k) with company match; and annual profit sharing.
Ready to Make an Impact?
If you’re ready to work in a collaborative, fast-paced environment with a team that values your contributions and supports your growth, we’d love to hear from you.
