Analytics & Reporting

• Monitor, analyse, and report on website performance metrics using tools such as Google Analytics, HubSpot, and Search Console.
• Track and report on SEO performance (ranking, traffic, keyword performance), providing actionable recommendations.
• Present insights to internal teams, supporting wider marketing and commercial decision making.

Reviews & Reputation

• Support the management and performance of Trustpilot and Google My Business (GMB) listings, ensuring consistent brand reputation and encouraging reviews.
• Monitor sentiment and trends, flagging issues or opportunities to the wider team.

Security & Compliance

• Maintain security standards including regular backups, updates, and SSL certificates.
• Ensure the site complies with data protection regulations (e.g., GDPR, CCPA).
