About Starwood Pet Travel

Starwood Pet Travel is a leading international pet relocation company focused on safety, transparency, and stress-reducing customer experience. The team partners with global carriers and vetted agents to deliver end‑to‑end relocations for companion animals.

Role Overview

This role is a hands-on manager (3–5 years experience) who plans and executes the editorial calendar, leads SEO initiatives, manages social distribution and email nurtures, and owns marketing reporting. Video is a first‑class channel: coordinates production of performance and organic video—briefs, scripts, shoots, and post—via external creators/editors and in-house resources. The podcast is one sub‑stream of this video program (hosted by an executive). PPC bidding/execution remains with an external agency; this role provides creative briefs, landing page requirements, and performance insights, and manages creative testing for Meta/YouTube/Reddit.

Key Responsibilities

  • Content & SEO
    • Build and maintain the content roadmap (pillar pages, route/country guides, supporting articles).
    • Keyword research, intent mapping, briefs, on‑page optimization, internal linking; coordinate technical tickets.
    • Maintain hub pages for priority trade lanes and compliance topics.
  • Video Content & Creative Ops
    • Plan quarterly video roadmap across organic and paid use‑cases; define hooks, scripts, shot lists, and storyboards.
  • Vendor management
    • Manage vendors/creators (UGC, editors, production houses); negotiate SOWs, timelines, and deliverables.
    • Own creative testing cadence with the paid buyer: 3–5 hook variants, cuts for 9:16/1:1/16:9, captioning, CTA variants.
    • Maintain asset library, naming conventions, rights management, and brand-safety/pet-welfare compliance.
    • Produce cut-downs/shorts and coordinate thumbnails for YouTube/Meta/Reddit.
  • Podcast
    • Plan and coordinate recordings, oversee editing (hands‑on or via outsourced editor), publish show notes, and distribute. Repurpose episodes into shorts, blog recaps, email, and social threads.
  • Lifecycle, Web & Social
    • Build/optimize landing pages, lead magnets, forms, and simple A/B tests; enforce UTM hygiene.
    • Manage newsletters and nurture sequences in HubSpot; maintain speed‑to‑lead alerts.
  • Analytics & Reporting
    • Own the monthly Marketing Scoreboard (GA4 + HubSpot + ad platform exports): acquisition, funnel conversion, pipeline created, CAC, ROAS/MER.
    • Track creative testing results (e.g., hook hold %, 3‑sec view rate, CTR, cost/MQL deltas) and maintain a creative learning agenda.
  • Vendor & Stakeholder Management
    • Manage podcast editor, freelance designers/writers, and the PPC interfaces; deliver briefs and creative needs.

Required Qualifications

  • 3–5 years in content‑ and video‑led growth for services lead‑gen (B2C or B2B2C). Proven non‑brand organic growth and content that converts.
  • Hands‑on SEO: keyword research, on‑page optimization, internal linking; ability to brief and QA technical tickets.
  • Experience running creative tests with a paid buyer/agency; can turn results into next‑round variants and clear insights.
  • HubSpot Marketing (forms, UTMs, lists, email, simple workflows) and GA4 proficiency; able to assemble dashboards from exports (Looker Studio or spreadsheet).
  • Strong copywriting; project management; vendor negotiation.
  • Some video production management: pre‑production (briefs/scripts/storyboards), vendor coordination, post‑production QA; understands platform specs (Meta/YouTube/Reddit) and brand‑safety.
