SE Ranking is a profitable, growing B2B SaaS business – around 200 people, remote-first and globally distributed. Our websites are one of our largest acquisition assets and the first product experience most customers ever have — and there are a lot of them: several sites across our product suite, in multiple language versions. We're hiring a Website Lead to own all of it: the team, the web properties, and everything that ships.
This is a hands-on, build-oriented role. You'll lead our in-house web team, set the roadmap and the priorities, and be accountable for two things above all: how fast changes go live, and how well the sites run once they're there. You'll also build AI into how the whole team works, so that every process gets faster.
You'll work closely with marketing, content, design, SEO, and our country teams. If you're energised by owning a business-critical asset with a real team behind it and the authority to change how it works, in a fast-moving, low-ego, global team, this is your role.
What you'll do
- Own our web properties end to end. Set the website roadmap, define success measures, and track results against business goals. Work with technical leads to keep our sites reliable, accessible, fast, and maintainable, including their CMS setup and integrations.
- Manage multiple websites and language versions. Coordinate improvements across our product websites and local versions together with regional teams and local managers. Use shared templates, components, and localisation workflows where they add value, while respecting each brand’s needs and technical setup.
- Lead the web team. Manage and develop the in-house web team, run sprint planning and weekly reviews, and plan capacity. You set the outcome and the constraints, then trust experienced specialists to choose how they build it. You give feedback as you go, and you have a clear view of how each person on the team grows.
- Set the priorities and make the call. Turn competing requests into one clear, prioritised plan based on business impact, effort, dependencies, and team capacity. Make trade-offs clear to stakeholders, including what moves or waits when priorities change.
- Give the team the context. People know what the business is trying to achieve, why a priority changed, and what leadership expects, not just what is next in the sprint.
- Manage external partners. Set clear scopes, deliverables, and quality expectations for contractors and agencies. Manage delivery within agreed budgets and timelines, and raise resource gaps early.
- Ship fast and reliably. Work with development and QA to build a clear release process, with appropriate testing, monitoring, and rollback plans. Keep stakeholders informed about what is shipping, when, and any risks to delivery.
