Job Description

Responsibilities

  • Own SEO strategy and activation end to end for dedicated client accounts, serving as the day-to-day lead across on-page, off-page, local, and technical disciplines
  • Write and optimize web content and long-form articles (blogs, guides, resource pages) that align with keyword strategy, brand voice, and search intent — and consistently look for ways to raise the bar on quality and performance
  • Develop content strategies from initial research through final copy — not just the plan, but the execution
  • Conduct content audits to identify what to update, expand, consolidate, or replace, and prioritize based on performance and opportunity
  • Analyze data, identify trends, and translate insights into clear recommendations clients can act on — going beyond reporting to push strategic thinking forward
  • Bring new ideas, approaches, and perspectives to the table: challenge assumptions, test hypotheses, and advocate for continuous improvement
  • Manage channel-specific projects, reporting, and KPI tracking with strong attention to detail across multiple concurrent accounts
  • Contribute to the growth of the team — sharing knowledge, elevating standards, and helping shape how we do SEO and content at RDI
  • Build clear presentations, support case studies and thought leadership, and QA deliverables before they go out the door
  • Collaborate cross-functionally to support integrated strategies across teams

Requirements

  • 3+ years of hands-on SEO experience across on-page, technical, local, and off-page disciplines
  • Agency experience strongly preferred — you understand the pace, the client relationships, and what it takes to manage multiple accounts simultaneously
  • Strong writing skills with demonstrated experience producing web content and long-form articles — portfolio or work samples required
  • Ability to take keyword research and translate it into content briefs, editorial direction, or finished copy
  • A track record of not just executing, but improving — you can point to work you've evolved, processes you've questioned, or results you've pushed past what was expected
  • Experience owning client-facing deliverables and communicating strategy and performance to non-technical stakeholders
  • Proficiency in Google Analytics, Google Search Console, SEMrush, Ahrefs, or similar tools
  • Genuine curiosity about where search is going — AI, evolving algorithms, new content formats — and a drive to stay ahead of it
  • A growth mindset that extends beyond your own development: you want the accounts, the team, and the discipline to be better because you're in the room

Preferred

  • Agency experience strongly preferred — you understand the pace, the client relationships, and what it takes to manage multiple accounts simultaneously

Benefits

  • Medical Insurance with multiple medical plan options
  • Employer contributions to Employee Health Savings Account
  • Dental & Vision Insurance
  • Three Weeks of Paid Time Off that increases with tenure in addition to Ten Paid Company Holidays
  • 401k Plan with competitive company match
  • Custom Semi-Annual Incentive Plans
  • Discounted Supplemental Insurance (accident, cancer, short term disability)
  • Discounted Pet Insurance
  • HQ Office with on-campus perks such as, EV charging, outdoor patios, and collaboration spaces
  • Flexible work options with a secure technology infrastructure
