- Producing keyword dashboards and regular reports on organic performance.
Technical SEO
- Monitoring multiple websites for technical SEO issues, such as indexing, loading speed, navigation, duplicate pages, canonical tags, URL structure and CWV.
- Perform content gap analysis.
- Feed into existing web development and A/B testing roadmaps.
Analysis
- Analyse the performance data for each major optimisation tactic as well as tracking performance
- through suitable metrics and reporting back on both positive and negative changes.
- Responsible for position tracking dashboard updates and maintenance.
- Report any highlights or concerns to the Account Manager as part of organic acquisition reports.
You’ll also be responsible for:

- Where required, to work with partners and external stakeholders when pitching new optimisation ideas.
- To work in collaboration with the Design Team where applicable.
- To explore innovative SEO, content marketing and outreach tactics.
The approaches you need to bring to the role:
- Demonstrate a mindset to think beyond brochure websites, with a clear focus on outcomes.
- Exhibit a passion for digital excellence which you can continuously illustrate.
- A self-starter who is happy to create a vision and own the delivery.
- An ability to work quickly and flexibly, with the mental agility to make good decisions and embed learning.
- A natural collaborator who enjoys working with clients and internal teams.
- Willing to embrace all aspects of working in a growing business – from strategic thinking to the formation of processes and training guides.

- 30 days holiday, including bank holidays, plus extra time off for Christmas (including Christmas Eve).
