Senior SEO Strategist

Experience Level:

What You’ll Own & Drive

• SEO strategy & execution – go beyond “basics” — identify growth opportunities through deep keyword research with prioritising user intent, competition insights, and industry shifts.
• Technical SEO (non-negotiable) – from crawlability, site speed, and indexing challenges to navigating modern web architectures, you’ll solve blockers that average SEOs don’t even see.
• Optimize every element (schema, content, UX, and what not!) while building quality authority links — zero tolerance for spammy shortcuts.
• Work directly with developers, designers, content writers, and data analysts to ensure SEO isn’t an afterthought but baked into every deliverable.
• Client & stakeholder management – lead conversations, not just attend them. Own accountability and communicate strategies/results with clarity.
• Analytics & CRO – beyond Google Analytics and Search Console — set up Looker Studio dashboards, GTM events, conversion funnels, and drive A/B tests to align SEO with real business goals.
• Be the person who knows what’s coming — Core Updates, AI search disruption, LLM impact — and guide the team with proactive strategies, not reactive panic.
  

What We Expect From You

• Minimum 3+ years with diverse clients and the ability to showcase real case studies where you’ve moved the needle.
• Strong SEO knowledge in On-page, off-page, deep technical SEO, and E-E-A-T compliance— not just surface-level “best practices.”
• Understand how generative AI, and LLM-driven search are reshaping SEO — and know how to adapt strategies accordingly.
• Strong with tools: SEMrush, Ahrefs, Screaming Frog, GA4, GSC, Looker Studio, Tag Manager — and openness to whatever’s next.
• Working knowledge of HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and headless/modern CMS environments.
• Strategic thinker + doer: Ability to balance high-level strategy with roll-up-your-sleeves execution.
• Ownership, accountability, communication skills, and the ability to lead discussions with both clients and internal teams.
• Bonus points: Experience with international SEO, multilingual markets, and AI-led optimization for search.
  

Who Should

Apply

• If you’re looking for just a “Senior” title with no leadership mindset.
• If your SEO expertise stops at “adding keywords” or “generating tons of useless backlinks.”
• If you want a comfort zone job without accountability.
