Responsibilities

• Strategy: Own the search strategy for your accounts. Build roadmaps from client business goals, set quarterly priorities, and make the case for why the work matters.
• Client Ownership: Act as the senior point of contact for your portfolio. Run monthly calls and quarterly reviews, explain performance honestly, and hold client confidence when results are slow.
• Technical Delivery: Lead audits, migrations and technical diagnosis. You will be hands-on where the work needs a senior pair of hands.
• Delivery Oversight: Brief the Search Executive team on execution across your accounts and review output before it reaches a client.
• AI & Search: Use AI tools to sharpen research and briefs, and build client strategies that account for AI Overviews, LLM visibility and platforms like Reddit. We expect you to have a view on where search is going, not just follow ours.
• Account Health: Spot drift, scope creep and growth opportunities early. Renewals for your accounts sit with you.

Requirements

• Around 3 years or more in SEO, mostly agency-side, with real client-facing experience. You have been running calls, not just sitting in on them.
• Strategy: A track record of building search strategy from a business objective rather than a checklist.
• Technical Skills: Confident with crawling, indexing, site architecture, site speed and migrations.
• Toolbox: Strong with Google Search Console, GA4, Ahrefs, Semrush, Screaming Frog and Looker Studio.
• Communication: You can explain technical SEO to a non-technical client clearly
• Autonomous: You'll run your accounts day to day without being chased. We have processes, and we want someone who'll improve them rather than just follow them.
• Credible: Clients trust you quickly, and senior people take your recommendations seriously.
• Commercially aware: Comfortable with the commercial side, including scope, renewals and pushing back when something is not the right call.
• Innovative: SEO changes constantly, and we are looking for someone genuinely excited about the whole search landscape, from LLMs to Reddit, and happy to try things that are not in the playbook yet.
• Broad: The role is deliberately wide, so it suits someone who enjoys variety across strategy, technical work and client relationships.

Benefits

• Career Progression: Strong opportunities for promotion and increased responsibility due to rapid agency growth.
• Hybrid Work: 3 days in the office, 2 days remote.
• Time Off: 28 days holiday, plus your Birthday and Christmas Eve off.
• Wellness: Private healthcare, gym contribution, and early Friday finishes.
• Office Perks: Sheffield office with a barista and free beer taps.
• Bonuses: Commission for new business wins, and for growth on your own accounts.
