• Support on-page optimisation including metadata, internal linking, and content refinement.
• Stay on top of SEO best practices, algorithm updates, and industry changes.

Required Experience & Skills

• 2+ years of experience in an SEO role, ideally within an agency environment.
• Strong technical SEO knowledge and the ability to apply it across multiple websites.
• Excellent Excel skills — including pivot tables, v-lookups, formulas, and data analysis for reporting and SEO tracking.
• Proficient in SEO tools like Google Search Console, Google Analytics, Screaming Frog, Ahrefs, SEMrush, and similar.
• Detail-oriented, analytical, and highly organised with strong problem-solving skills.
• Confident communicator, capable of explaining SEO concepts to clients and stakeholders.

• Agency experience with multiple client accounts.
• Exposure to e-commerce or international SEO.
• Knowledge of structured data/schema markup.
• Understanding of Core Web Vitals and performance metrics.
• Experience with log file analysis or server-side SEO insights.

What’s in it for You?

• Join a successful and supportive digital marketing agency with real career growth opportunities.
• Hybrid working model with flexibility around office days.
• Access to regular training, certifications, and industry events.
• A diverse client portfolio that keeps the work engaging and varied.
