- Technical SEO Expertise: In-depth understanding of technical SEO across all facets, including crawling, indexing, rendering, Core Web Vitals, site architecture, and code-level optimisation.
- Site Migrations Leadership: Leading end-to-end site migrations from a technical SEO perspective—from pre-migration scoping, auditing, and redirect mapping through to launch execution and post-migration performance monitoring.
- Commercial & Pitching Experience: Proven experience evaluating technical SEO opportunities for prospective clients and contributing to new-business pitch decks and presentations.
- Mentorship & Coaching Skills: A strong desire and proven ability to coach, mentor, and upskill junior colleagues in technical SEO principles.
- Stakeholder Communication: Excellent teamwork and communication skills, with a proven track record of translating complex technical recommendations into clear, actionable briefs for developers and marketing managers.
- Departmental Collaboration: Experience working alongside departmental leaders (such as the Head of SEO) on internal initiatives, tooling, or workflow enhancements.
- Demonstrable experience working on complex or higher-value businesses/accounts across national or international markets.
Given the senior technical nature of this role, we are looking for candidates who can demonstrate deep technical expertise, effective communication skills, and a proven ability to translate complex technical priorities to key stakeholders such as development teams, digital marketing managers, and channel teams.
You should be comfortable playing a pivotal role in commercial opportunities—owning technical SEO evaluations during new business pitches—as well as acting as a mentor to inspire and upskill junior members of the team. Additionally, you should be forward-thinking and eager to embrace emerging technologies, helping to evaluate and integrate AI and agentic workflows into our technical SEO deliverable processes.
While we typically expect around 4+ years of experience in an SEO-specific role, we will choose successful candidates based on their technical grounding, strategic vision, and proven track record of results.
