SEO Strategist
About the Role
Do you have a passion for driving organic growth and making websites soar to the top of search results? We’re looking for an experienced SEO Strategist to take charge of our SEO efforts and play a crucial role in scaling our digital presence globally. If you love digging into the technical side of SEO, optimising for international markets, and staying ahead of algorithm updates, this could be your perfect opportunity.
In this role, you’ll be responsible for conducting in-depth technical SEO audits, ensuring that every aspect of our site is optimised for both performance and search visibility. You’ll work closely with our development, content, and marketing teams to implement best practices that align with Google’s EEAT (Expertise, Authoritativeness, Trustworthiness) guidelines, especially for healthcare-related content. On top of that, you’ll lead our efforts to grow our reach into new languages and regions, creating and scaling multilingual SEO campaigns that take us to the next level.
What You’ll Be Doing
You’ll lead our SEO strategy from both a technical and content perspective. This means conducting detailed SEO audits to spot any issues impacting our site’s crawlability, indexing, or speed, and collaborating with our development team to fix them. You’ll ensure we’re adhering to Google’s best practices and using schema markup and structured data to help our content stand out in search engine results pages.
On the international front, you’ll be scaling our SEO efforts globally. This involves creating strategies that adapt to different languages and regions, optimising for local search behaviours, and using hreflang tags to ensure our content is properly targeted. You’ll help us localise content and maintain SEO standards across all markets, ensuring we maintain credibility and authority, especially for healthcare content.
