Role
Who you are
- Bachelors degree or relevant experience
- 7-10 years of growth marketing experience, with at least 3+ years of SEO experience and accountability for growth metrics such as customer acquisition, activation etc
- Strong working knowledge of on-page, off-page, and technical SEO fundamentals, even if not a hands-on implementer
- Proven ability to lead managing cross-functional initiatives, freelancers, and agencies in content production, site optimization, or SEO analytics
- Demonstrated ability to tie SEO work to business outcomes—patient leads, qualified traffic, or conversions
- Familiarity with tools like Google Search Console, Ahrefs, ScreamingFrog, and other core SEO platforms
- AI-curious and comfortable testing emerging tools to accelerate analysis and execution
- Confident using SQL and BI tools to diagnose issues, surface opportunities, and analyze performance
- Clear and persuasive written and verbal communicator across technical and non-technical stakeholders at various levels in the organization, including executives
What the job involves
- Talkiatry is seeking a strategic, business-minded Director of Organic Growth to lead our Search Everywhere Optimization efforts. In this role, you’ll be responsible for significantly increasing patient acquisition by expanding Talkiatry’s discoverability and authority across traditional and emerging search platforms—including Google, ChatGPT, video search, social platforms, and provider directories (e.g. Psychology Today, WebMD). As you build on and grow our SEO foundation, this role also has the opportunity to identify and expand into broader organic growth channels
- Reporting to the VP of Growth Marketing, you’ll act as the central orchestrator of our SEO strategy: setting priorities, managing external partners, and ensuring performance translates into real business outcomes. Your success will be measured not by traffic, but by how effectively we guide prospective patients to discover and choose Talkiatry via organic channels
- You’ll collaborate closely with cross-functional partners in Growth, Product, Engineering, Editorial, and Clinical, while managing freelance and agency contributors across content and technical SEO. With a rapidly scaling base of 600+ healthcare providers and a strong foundation of clinically authoritative content, this is an opportunity for someone who sees SEO as a growth lever, not as a channel for vanity metrics
- This is not a technical or IC-level SEO role. You won’t be debugging JavaScript or configuring hreflang tags. Instead, we’re looking for someone who can set vision, solve ambiguous problems, prioritize ruthlessly, and hold yourself and others accountable for execution. You’ll help define the playbook for how patients find and choose their mental health care in a constantly evolving discovery landscape
- Deliver on ambitious quarterly and annual traffic and patient conversion goals through a cross-platform Search Everywhere Optimization strategy focused on acquisition, not just traffic
- Own and drive a strategic roadmap that enables Talkiatry to outperform competitors, informed by data, search trends, and competitive insights
- Manage agencies, freelancers, and content partners by setting direction, reviewing output, and ensuring alignment with business goals
- Build reporting frameworks and dashboards that provide organizational-wide visibility into the performance organic channels
- Lead cross-functional content strategy, ensuring topical authority and brand trustworthiness, and develop landing pages and user experiences that convert
- Analyze patient discovery and decision-making journeys to continuously improve how prospective patients find and evaluate Talkiatry
- Monitor performance and evolving trends across Google, GenAI tools, social/video platforms, and healthcare provider directories, adjusting strategies based on platform evolution and competitive behavior
- Advocate for site-level and technical SEO priorities, working with internal or external resources (without owning direct implementation yourself)
Our take
Awareness of the importance of mental health is growing worldwide, with many people seeking psychiatry to improve their mental wellness and quality of life. However, psychiatrist waiting lists and a "one size fits all" approach to mental health often prevent people from receiving the support that they need.
Talkiatry provides a personalized mental health marketplace, matching users with in-house psychiatrists based on preliminary assessment answers. Whilst the company inevitably faces competition from other online psychiatry marketplaces, Talkiatry shows the potential to stand out through its personalized, flexible, and insurance-first approach.
Healthtech is growing in strength, and with various partnerships and has substantial funding to its name. Notably, it claimed an oversubscribed Series D in 2026, positioning Talkiatry for future success and innovation in the evolving healthcare landscape.
