• Monitor emerging AI-search and answer-engine trends and recommend practical content improvements that strengthen Arc XP’s visibility with prospective buyers.
• Manage Arc XP’s B2B social-media calendar and day-to-day channel activity to extend the reach and relevance of marketing content.

• Track content performance using web analytics, search tools, marketing automation, and CRM data to identify insights and improve future content investments.
• Use AI-enabled tools for approved research, drafting, repurposing, and production activities while maintaining source validation, human review, and editorial standards.
