  • Evaluate website content and information architecture to identify opportunities to eliminate redundancies, modernize content, improve navigation and findability, and strengthen the user experience.
  • Use performance analytics, search behavior, content metrics, and stakeholder feedback to identify opportunities for continuous improvement and recommend content and user-experience enhancements.
  • Support recurring content reviews and certification processes to help ensure digital information remains accurate, current, and compliant.
  • Develop user guides, training materials, presentations, and other resources; document and improve content-management processes and procedures; and deliver training and support to staff on content-management and publishing processes.
  • Support digital information resources and databases through content review, editing, organization, sorting, filtering, data quality control, and publishing, as applicable.
  • Use graphic-editing tools as needed to prepare, crop, resize, recolor, and optimize images and visual assets for web use.
