About This Role

We’re seeking a full-time SEO Manager who truly understands local SEO for contractors and remodelers. This isn’t a “check-the-box and send reports” position.

• Create high-quality content strategies including service pages, service area pages, blogs, FAQs, and project pages
• Develop content outlines and coordinate uploads with our WordPress developer
• Set up comprehensive tracking systems to monitor performance and baseline metrics
• Provide weekly ranking reports and monthly performance reviews with strategic recommendations backed by data
• Own the results and proactively communicate what you need to succeed
• Collaborate with the team including the agency owner and office manager on strategy refinement and execution

• Someone who waits too long to communicate issues or needs
