About the Role
As the Group SEO Executive, you'll bring SEO operations in-house, taking full ownership of on-page, off-page, and technical SEO. Working closely with a small, friendly, and ambitious marketing team, you'll report directly to the Group Marketing Director to create and execute tailored SEO strategies for each brand within the group.
You’ll be hands-on in driving organic growth, improving search engine rankings, aligning and implementing SEO strategies with broader marketing goals. This is a role for a proactive, data-driven professional who thrives on solving complex challenges and achieving results.
Key Responsibilities of the SEO Specialist:
* Develop and implement tailored SEO strategies for multiple brands within the group while staying updated on industry trends, algorithm changes, and best practices.
* Optimise website content, metadata, and internal linking structures to align with SEO best practices while maintaining brand identity and enhancing user experience.
* Conduct regular site audits, address crawl errors, improve page speed, and ensure all websites are mobile-friendly and optimised for search engine crawlability.
* Perform in-depth keyword research using tools like SEMrush or Ahrefs and collaborate with content teams to produce SEO-optimised blogs, product descriptions, and web pages.
* Strengthen domain authority by creating and executing ethical and effective link-building campaigns and fostering strategic partnerships.
* Monitor competitor strategies to identify opportunities for improvement and stay ahead in competitive markets.
* Support the re-platforming of a handful of the brands' websites onto a new CMS.
* Work closely with divisional marketing teams, developers, and content creators to ensure SEO strategies are seamlessly integrated into broader marketing initiatives.
The Key Skills and Experience of the SEO Executive:
* At least 2 years of hands-on SEO experience, in either an Agency or In-House Business.
* Proficiency in SEO tools such as SEMrush, Ahrefs, Google Analytics, and Google Search Console, coupled with a strong understanding of technical, on-page, and off-page SEO techniques.
* A keen analytical mindset, problem-solving skills, and an eye for detail to ensure effective and efficient SEO strategies.
* Excellent communication skills to explain technical concepts to both technical and non-technical audiences, along with strong organisational abilities to manage multiple projects.
* A degree in Marketing, Digital Marketing, or a related field is advantageous but not essential for this role.
What’s in It for You?
* Enjoy the chance to work across a variety of brands, each offering unique challenges and growth opportunities.
* Benefit from a flexible hybrid setup with just one day per week in our Preston office and the rest remote.
* Be part of a supportive and collaborative marketing team driving innovation and growth across multiple industries.
