About Us
Geeky Tech is more than an SEO agency; it's where top-tier SEO expertise meets technological geekihood. We're the champions of digital excellence, carving a path in the ever-evolving world of digital optimisation. Born from a group of passionate freelancers, we've seamlessly integrated the freedom and adaptability of remote work into our agency's foundation. This approach has allowed us to bring together a global team of diverse SEO professionals, all dedicated to delivering unparalleled results for our clients—anytime, anywhere.

Job Overview

• Website Audit (Technical focus).
• Page Optimisations.
• Conversion Tracking (Tag & Measurement plans & implementation).
• Creation of SEO Reports (Looker Studio) and ongoing monthly reports.
• Website Migrations (pre & post migration - Organic traffic focus, not the actual DNS changes or content etc.)

The role involves running quality assurance on the rest of the technical team’s work and supporting the other technical SEOs in their roles. Some of the work types (initial audits, conversion tracking & migrations) involve customer calls to explain the work we’ve carried out and what the next steps are, you will be running these calls and then passing the next steps onto the rest of the team.

In the longer term, improvement to the existing services and/or creation of new areas would be part of the remit, but not your sole responsibility. Please note that while experience in the above areas is highly desirable, we value a can-do attitude and willingness to learn.
