Leverage your strong AI literacy and Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) expertise to structure and optimize digital channel copy. You will craft high-converting content for digital tiles, digital campaigns, social media posts, web copy and video scripts designed for maximum AI and modern search engine discoverability. Editorial Authority & Compliance:

Serve as the final gatekeeper for tone, grammar, and house style across all packaging and digital collateral. You will enforce strict trademark compliance, collaborate with Legal to ensure product claim accuracy, and guarantee 100% error-free output to prevent legal risks and costly reprints.

Partner closely with our in-house Creative, Digital Content, Digital Marketing, and Legal teams. You will help manage project traffic, maintain workflow timelines, and ensure unified execution across all retail and digital channels. What We’re Looking For: Experience:
