We compete in one of the most contested SERPs in SaaS: cold email, sales engagement and lead generation, against well-funded players like Apollo, Instantly and Lemlist. Were hiring an SEO Team Lead to own that battle end to end: set the strategy, do the hard work yourself, and build a team that compounds organic pipeline quarter after quarter.

• Type: Full-time

What youll own

You own organic search as a revenue channel, from the keyword universe to the signup.

• Map the full keyword universe and topic clusters across BOFU (alternatives, comparisons, pricing, use cases), MOFU and TOFU
• Prioritise ruthlessly by impact × effort; report progress to marketing leadership monthly

• Work directly with developers on site architecture, templates and programmatic SEO pages

3. On-page & content SEO

• Run content refresh and pruning programs to recover decaying rankings
• Partner with content writers on search intent, E-E-A-T and conversion-focused page structure

• Grow high-quality referring domains in our niche while keeping the backlink profile clean
• Use Saleshandy itself to run outreach at scale

5. AI search visibility (GEO/AEO)

• Grow Saleshandys presence in Google AI Overviews, ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and other LLM answers
• Track brand mentions, citations and share of voice versus competitors; act on the gaps

6. Team leadership

• Lead, coach and grow the SEO team; set weekly goals, review work and raise the quality bar
• Hire as the channel scales; build SOPs and playbooks so execution doesnt depend on one person

7. Analytics & reporting

• Own SEO dashboards in GA4, GSC, Ahrefs and PostHog: rankings, traffic, conversions and assisted pipeline
• Turn data into the next sprints priorities, not just a monthly report
