• Perform keyword research and on-page optimization to align with client goals and target audiences, mapping terms into a cluster model strategy to guide content creation and site architecture.
• Write and edit high-quality, SEO-optimized content (blogs, landing pages, metadata, etc.) that drives organic visibility.
• Collaborate with design and development teams to ensure SEO best practices are applied to web builds and updates.
• Track and analyze performance metrics in tools such as Google Analytics, GA4, Google Search Console, SEMrush, or SEranking.
• Provide regular reporting with actionable insights to clients.
• Stay current with SEO trends, algorithm updates, and industry best practices.
• Join SEO team calls to share insights, collaborate on strategies, and drive continuous improvement.

Requirements:

• 3+ years of hands-on SEO experience preferably in an agency environment.
• Proven success in building and executing backlink strategies.
• Strong SEO knowledge, including some technical site audits.
• Exceptional writing skills, with experience crafting keyword-optimized content that ranks.
• Experience with keyword research, competitor analysis, and content gap identification.
• Proficiency with SEO tools such as SEMrush, SEranking, Screaming Frog, Google Analytics, and Google Search Console.
• Ability to manage multiple clients and projects simultaneously.
• Strong communication and client-facing skills.

Soft Skills:

• Analytical yet creative, you can interpret data and translate it into impactful content strategies, supported by strong content development skills that drive engagement and results.
• You thrive in fast-paced environments and adapt quickly to change.
• You’re a proactive problem solver who can work independently and collaborate effectively with others.

Who We Are:

• It’s cliche, but we really are a work family who get together “just because” for holidays, company outings and happy hours.
• Our clients are large corporations, non-profits, and small businesses. We value each one as much as the other.
