THE SENIOR SEO ACCOUNT MANAGER ROLE
As Senior SEO Account Manager, you'll be the go-to person for a portfolio of clients, helping them get the most out of their organic search activity.
You'll be involved in everything from putting together SEO strategies and identifying new opportunities to presenting results and helping clients understand what comes next.
There's a good balance of strategy, technical SEO and relationship management, so it's ideal for someone who enjoys getting stuck into the detail but is equally comfortable jumping on a call with a client.
Day to day, you'll be:

- Building SEO strategies that focus on delivering meaningful results, not just improving rankings
- Getting involved in technical audits, keyword research, content planning and site optimisation
- Working on more complex projects including website migrations and international SEO

- Building strong relationships with clients and becoming someone they can genuinely rely on for advice
- Working alongside other digital specialists to make sure campaigns are working together
- Supporting pitches and identifying opportunities to grow existing client accounts
- Helping junior members of the team develop their skills and confidence
You'll also be encouraged to bring your own ideas to the table. SEO is constantly changing, particularly with AI Search becoming a bigger part of the conversation, so they're looking for someone who enjoys keeping up with the industry and trying new approaches.
SENIOR SEO ACCOUNT MANAGER ESSENTIAL SKILLS

Ideally, you'll have:
- 5+ years of experience working in SEO, ideally within an agency

- Experience building and managing SEO strategies for multiple clients
- Confidence using tools like Ahrefs, SEMrush, Screaming Frog, GA4 and Google Search Console
