Senior Executive, SEO & Organic Performance

We're looking for a communicative, creative, SEO & GEO Sr. Executive to drive and own performance, manage client relationships, and help shape AI-led search visibility (and channel synergy) across our portfolio. You'll contribute to the development of strategy and own execution across SEO as well as the emerging surfaces of AI search, and developing the synergy between these disciplines alongside social search. This is a highly collaborative, on-site role, with 4 days/week in office (Tu-Fr).

If you are passionate about being part of a team, driving performance and client growth, and building relationships, then we want to hear from you. 

In this role, you will have exposure across the spectrum: from content, to social, CRO and UX, SEO and GEO. Our team can teach what you do not know, but you must have the drive to learn and the aptitude to apply new knowledge. This role is perfect for you if you are excited about where organic search as a channel is heading to - we have the internal teams and expertise to turn your ideas into real strategy and measurable growth. If your agency is stuck in the past, then apply now.
