• Lead client relationships, including strategy development, ongoing communication, and confidence in delivery.
• Build, maintain, and execute SEO strategies across technical SEO, on‑page, content, and authority.
• Demonstrate a strong understanding of AI‑driven search (e.g. Google’s AI Overviews, LLM‑led discovery, changing SERP behaviour) and incorporate this into SEO strategy and recommendations.

Required experience

• 3‑5+ years’ SEO experience, ideally agency‑side.
• Strong technical SEO knowledge (audits, implementations, migrations, troubleshooting).
• Confident building and executing SEO strategies, not just following instructions.
• Experience managing priorities, time, and external resource effectively.
• Comfortable being accountable for outcomes, not just activity.
• Experience with social search (e.g. TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, Reddit) and how it intersects with SEO.
• Exposure to or collaboration with digital PR for authority and link acquisition.
• Understanding of CRO principles and how SEO performance ties into conversion.

Personal attributes
