Job description

We’re looking for an experienced SEO and GEO Manager to build and own organic and AI-visibility growth for Dalma in Germany and France.

You’ll take full ownership of the GEO/SEO strategy for DE, end-to-end and set the strategy and roadmap for FR, working hand in hand with Marie-Anne, our Senior Marketing Manager, who leads execution there.

This is a real ownership role: there’s no existing SEO team to plug into and no inherited roadmap to follow. Just a fast-moving channel with genuine headroom in two markets, and a direct line to our Head of B2C Growth.

What you’ll do

The role

We’re looking for an experienced SEO and GEO Manager to build and own organic and AI-visibility growth for Dalma in Germany and France.

You’ll take full ownership of the GEO/SEO strategy for DE, end-to-end and set the strategy and roadmap for FR, working hand in hand with Marie-Anne, our Senior Marketing Manager, who leads execution there.

This is a real ownership role: there’s no existing SEO team to plug into and no inherited roadmap to follow. Just a fast-moving channel with genuine headroom in two markets, and a direct line to our Head of B2C Growth.

What you’ll do

• Strategy & execution — Own the DE GEO channel end-to-end: data-led strategy, roadmap, and hands‑on execution. Set the same strategy and roadmap for FR, partnering with our Senior Marketing Manager on execution.
• GEO optimization — Run a test-and-learn, AI/automation-first approach to GEO. Balance a structured roadmap with the agility to jump on short‑lived opportunities (new formats, hacks, partnerships), and stay ahead of a fast-moving market — model updates, new tactics, new research.
• Content & placements — Build content in areas of topical authority using first‑party data and expert authorship. Keep our technical SEO/GEO foundation current, and manage off-page placements: refreshing existing ones, opening new affiliate/partnership placements, and running digital PR.
• Consultancy & knowledge-sharing — Document playbooks and share GEO/SEO knowledge with the team as the roadmap matures, so expertise isn’t locked in one person.
• Forecasting & reporting — Forecast the expected impact of initiatives before executing them, and report against that forecast — not just describe activity after the fact.

Preferred experience

Must-haves:

• Hands‑on SEO delivery experience — you’ve built and executed a strategy yourself, not just briefed one
• Comfortable building from scratch, with ambiguity, and without an existing team to lean on
• You own your data and reporting personally (GSC, GA4, Looker) — no analyst needed
• Fluent in German and English
• Based in Berlin

Nice-to-haves:

• Insurance or subscription‑based B2C industry background
• Experience managing an agency handover

Recruitment process

• Introduction call with Nik (Head of B2C Growth) — 30 min
• Case study with Nik — 1h
• Team fit with Marie-Anne — 30 min
• Team fit with Alban (co‑founder) — 30 min
