Experience required: Minimum 2 years of full-time, hands-on SEO experience. Internship or training periods do not count toward this requirement.
About the role
We're hiring a Senior SEO Specialist to independently manage full-scope search engine optimisation work across multiple client accounts. As a senior hire, you'll typically be trusted to run more than one account, or take the lead on higher-complexity accounts, giving you more stability across client transitions than a junior role would have.
What you'll be doing
You'll own the full SEO function for the accounts assigned to you, end to end, with minimal oversight, including:
Technical SEO
- Full technical audits: crawl health, indexation, site structure, page speed
- Ongoing crawl and index monitoring, catching regressions early
- Heading and document structure cleanup
- URL consolidation, redirect governance, and structured data implementation
On-page and content
- Keyword mapping and strategy, independently or against a client-supplied keyword set
- Title, meta, and heading optimisation across templates
- Formatting content for both traditional search and AI answer engines
- Internal linking strategy and execution
- Image and media metadata cleanup
Off-page and authority building
- Weekly qualifying backlink acquisition through legitimate publishing and outreach, no link farms, private networks, or paid schemes
- Off-site publishing on platforms like Medium, Quora, and industry communities
- LinkedIn management for founder or executive profiles, including posting and engagement
- Google Business Profile setup and management
- Software review platform listings (G2, Capterra, Software Advice, Product Hunt, etc.)
- Comparison and alternative pages, industry and specialty landing pages
- Outreach to relevant industry publications
- Transcribing and publishing video/audio content as indexable text
Tracking, reporting, and strategy
- Monitoring AI answer engine coverage and mentions
- Competitor gap analysis
- Maintaining a clear ledger of work completed and links placed
- Setting the priority and sequencing of work based on audit findings, rather than following a fixed checklist
- Flagging risk (e.g. suspicious scripts, penalty-risk link sources) before it becomes a client-facing problem
What we're looking for
- Minimum 2 years of hands-on, full-time SEO experience (internships not counted); demonstrated ownership of accounts, not just task execution under someone else's strategy
- Track record running SEO end to end across technical, on-page, and off-page, with the judgment to sequence work without being told what to do first
- Comfortable managing multiple client accounts simultaneously, each with its own keyword set, voice, and priorities
- Strong writing ability for content rewrites, off-site publishing, and LinkedIn posts
- Proficient with tools like Search Console, a rank tracker, and a crawler (Screaming Frog, Ahrefs, SEMrush, or similar)
- Solid understanding of how AI assistants and answer engines source and cite content, and how to structure content accordingly
- Able to communicate clearly and professionally in client-facing contexts, including explaining SEO reasoning to a non-technical stakeholder
- Comfortable mentoring or reviewing the work of junior team members, where applicable
Structure of the role
- Paid monthly, on a contract basis tied to active client work
- As a senior hire, you'll generally be assigned to more than one account or a higher-complexity account, which reduces (but doesn't eliminate) the risk of a gap between engagements
- Continuity depends on client retention; this is a stable, ongoing arrangement rather than a fixed-term contract, but not indefinite in the way traditional employment is
- Growth path into a lead or strategy role as the client base expands
If you have at least two years of real SEO ownership behind you and want steady, senior-level contract work with room to grow, we'd like to hear from you.
