Job description

We're delighted to be supporting an outstanding Birmingham-based digital agency as they look to secure a talented SEO Manager to join their growing team!

This is an ambitious agency with big plans. Growth, innovation and development are at the heart of what they do, and they're looking for like-minded people who want to be part of that journey.

They've built a brilliant culture where people are genuinely valued, encouraged to challenge the norm and given the opportunity to develop. They know that when their people flourish, the business does too!

The opportunity:

We're looking for an experienced SEO Manager who knows their stuff technically but can also see the bigger picture.

You will take ownership of SEO strategy and delivery across a diverse portfolio of clients, combining technical SEO, content optimisation and data-driven insights to deliver meaningful results.

With AI changing the search landscape, you'll also have the opportunity to get stuck into GEO, AEO and the future of search, helping clients stay ahead of the curve.

This isn't a role where you'll be hidden behind a screen! You'll be working directly with clients, building relationships, presenting recommendations and collaborating with specialists across paid media, content, creative and PR.

What we're looking for:

• Solid SEO experience gained within a digital or marketing agency.
• Strong technical SEO skills, alongside experience in content strategy, on-page optimisation and link building.
• Confidence using tools such as GA4, Google Tag Manager, SEMrush, Ahrefs and Screaming Frog.
• An understanding of AI-driven search, GEO and AEO, and a genuine interest in how search is evolving.
• A commercially minded approach, with an appreciation of how SEO works alongside PPC and paid social.
• Great communication skills and the confidence to manage client relationships and present your ideas.

Above all, we're looking for someone who's curious, ambitious and genuinely passionate about digital marketing. Someone who wants to have an impact, bring fresh ideas to the table and grow with the business.

What's in it for you? There's plenty to get excited about!

You will be joining a progressive, growing agency with international offices, an impressive client portfolio and genuine opportunities to develop your career. If you're an SEO specialist looking for a role where you can make your mark, develop your skills and be part of an agency that's going places, we'd love to hear from you!
